The Fiesta
SHARES the same platform as the Mazda2. Nothing else! This is a global platform and Europe is the lead for small car development.
The Euro Focus is based on another Global Ford platform. Once again...lead in Europe.
Ford has more then enough global resources to develop excellent small car platforms.
