What is the Ford StreetKa?
The StreetKa is a small two-seat roadster based on the first-generation Ford Ka. It kept the Ka’s compact proportions but swapped the hatchback body for an open cabin and folding fabric roof, giving Ford’s city car a more relaxed, open-air character.
Sold from 2003 to 2007, the StreetKa brought a distinctive roadster shape to Ford’s European small-car range. Italian design and coachbuilding company Pininfarina was involved in bringing it to production.
