Ford will unveil a new global concept vehicle at the Auto Expo 2014. The concept is based on a global design philosophy but, the company says, "created to serve the specific needs of consumers in India."

This would either have to be the near-production Ford Ka or a B-Segment sedan based on it.

The concept will showcase Ford's vision for the future in the competitive compact-car segment in India and other emerging markets, says a release from the company.

The Ford Ka concept was shown in Brazil late last year, previewing the global replacement to the current Ka and Figo.

Ford envisages that the Asia-Pacific region would account for nearly a third of Ford's global sales by 2015, more than doubling from the 15 percent from 2010.

Ford also expects the compact car segment to double, from around 1 million units in 2013, in just five years. Vinay Piparsania, executive director for marketing sales and service said that customers will get to experience first-hand the global products that are being created to meet and exceed their expectations.
