The American car manufacturer, Ford Motors hopes to see a surge in sales growth through improving their exports. Three more countries, Sierra Leone, Sri Lanka and Ethiopia have been added to their existing list of countries they deal with, bringing the total number to 30. The company exports its cars to these countries through their Indian manufacturing units. Moreover, the auto major might have a couple of surprises in store to make a bash at the 2012 Indian Auto Expo. One wouldn’t call Ford India to be generous here as it has played the cards much close to its chest. A mini SUV from Ford Motors is largely speculated to make it to the upcoming 2012 Auto Expo.

Michael Boneham, President of Ford India has been positive about the turn out of the events. He had been particularly happy with their sales growth in the country when there is an overall slowdown in the car market.  On the other hand, the auto major is trying aggressively to turn around the sales of its Ford Fiesta sedan.  An automatic variant of the sedan with a new 6-speed dual clutch powershift automatic gearbox is the one expected to work wonders for the Ford Fiesta sales. However, this is a good news for the Ford Fiesta petrol fans only. The Automatice gearbox will be offered on the top-end petrol variant alone. Those looking for a diesel variant of the sedan will have to compromise with the 5-speed manual gearbox.
