What's great about the all-new Ford Fiesta Active is the fact that it still maintains the much-praised aesthetic appeal of the Fiesta hatchback despite now boasting a taller height, boosted ground clearance, more solid wheels and a muscular structure. As far as performance is concerned, this particular hatchback crossover comes equipped with a gasoline [EcoBoost](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/troy-lee-designs) engine that is capable of churning out between 84 and 138 horsepower depending on the configuration. Buyers can also opt for a diesel engine if they so choose. This hatchback crossover's stylish aesthetics and its ability to strike a balance between sportiness and compactness make it perfectly suited for the European market. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.3/10 - Popularity: 26% | Activity: 4% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Autos](https://www.trendhunter.com/autos) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Compact Hatchback Crossovers:** The Ford Fiesta Active combines style and sportiness in a compact crossover. - **Rugged Aesthetic Appeal:** The Fiesta Active maintains the aesthetic appeal of the Fiesta hatchback while adding a more rugged design. - **Enhanced Performance Options:** With a gasoline EcoBoost engine and the option for a diesel engine, the Fiesta Active offers a range of performance capabilities. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Automotive:** The automotive industry can capitalize on the growing demand for compact hatchback crossovers. - **Fashion and Design:** The fashion and design industry can explore new collaborations and inspiration from the rugged and stylish aesthetic of the Fiesta Active. - **Eco-friendly Technology:** The eco-friendly technology industry could develop innovative engine options for compact hatchback crossovers, like the EcoBoost engine in the Fiesta Active. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Weekend Warrior Compact SUVs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/citroen-c3-aircross.md) - [All-Electric Tiny Crossover Cars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mini-aceman.md) - [City-Friendly Crossover Cars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/toyota-aygo-x.md) - [Off-Road Crossover SUVs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mazda-cx50.md) - [Miniaturized Americana SUVs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ford-mini-bronco.md) - [Rugged High-Tech SUVs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cx50.md) - [Sporty 60s-Style SUVs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ford-bronco-sport-heritage-edition.md) - [Reimagined Compact EVs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/compact-ev.md) - [Off-Road Assistance Pickup Trucks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ford-ranger-wildtrak-x.md)
