BTW, why only one airbag. Is it for Driver? (in most of the cases)

Thanks for that info vnabhi.

But in the case of Fiesta, sales are not happening. I don't think that this move will save Fiesta.

Nope, sxi comes with ABS in place of alloys. If you want alloys, you gotta pay for 'em.

I just checked the ford website.
If I remember correctly, the ABS and Airbag is only standard on the top end variant - the SXi.

Are you sure vnabhi!!?? is this any kind of latest development some time in the year 2007? because when my dad got the Fiesta SXi in Feb 2006, the alloys where OE and the ABS was optional.
Will check out in Planet Ford today itself...

Yup, this happened in March, 2007, and I was one of the first customers to take this new avatar of the sxi.
