2003 Ford ZX2
The low-cost car of the Ford line, the 2003 Ford ZX2
was designed to enable those with smaller budgets and
price limits to afford a quality-built Ford vehicle.
This sporty coupe 2-door has front-wheel drive, a good
assortment of basic features, a choice of three different
models and the usual assortment of Ford compatible add-ons
that will satisfy a persons desire for originality or
specific enhancement.
This Coupe is easy to buy, economical to run in terms
of fuel economy and, with 135 hp, is no slouch either.
In general, the ZX2 is the car to buy if you need a
basic quality mover to get from a to b. It is designed
to be particularly valuable as a commuter vehicle but
it carries four adult passengers comfortably and has
trunk room for the groceries, briefcase, or sports bag
so it can also be the family car.
Under the Hood
The Ford ZX2 has a single engine choice, the aforementioned
4-cyl 2.0-liter. This fuel efficient motor puts out
130 hp at 5300 rpm and 135 lb-ft of torque at 4500 rpm.
A choice of transmissions gets either 26/33 mpg (city/hwy)
(5-speed manual) or 25/33 mpg (4-speed automatic).
Surprisingly, dual front airbags and a rear spoiler
are installed equipment on even the base Standard ZX2.
Also included for safety at this level is an emergency
interior trunk release, alloy wheels and 180/60R15 tires.
Standard Features, Options Packages and Style
As a "low-cost" vehicle, the ZX2 is surprisingly
well appointed with interior features. The ZX2 Standard
comes with front bucket seats with cloth upholstery,
a split-folding rear seat, power steering and power
mirrors. Also included is an AM/FM/cassette player,
variable-intermittent wipers and a rear defogger.
The ZX2 Deluxe is a step up with cruise control, air
conditioning, tilt-leather-wrapped steering wheel, mats
and map lights and finally, an AM/FM/CD player.
The top of the ZX2 line, the Premium, adds some more
great features, with power windows and door locks and
remote keyless entry. Fog lights add an exterior touch
of added value as well.
Optional add-ons available on the ZX2 include a variety
of major individual options. For example, antilock brakes
are available, along with leather upholstery, a power
sunroof and more.
