Ford Ka James Bond Quantum of Solace

The new Ford Ka isn’t yet out on the market and it already gets ready to become a movie star. Because the new small car from Ford will be featured in the latest James Bond movie, Quantum of Solace. In the movie, the Ka is driven by Camille, 007’s ally, played by Olga Kurylenko, one of the most beautiful women out there, if you ask us. The 'Quantum of Solace' Ka is unique with metallic gold paint and an exclusive exterior graphics and interior trim combination and was created by Ford of Europe's Design team, in collaboration with the movie's Oscar award-winning production designer, Dennis Gassner. The Ka's cameo continues Ford of Europe's relationship with the James Bond films, following the debut appearance of the latest Ford Mondeo, in the 2006 'Casino Royale'.

"The new Ka is the perfect match for the character of Camille – adventurous, individual and thoroughly modern," says Ford of Europe's Chief Operating Officer, Stephen Odell. "We are delighted that the launch of the film coincides with the launch of such a significant new model for Ford of Europe."
