The ford Fiesta is a classic car with attractive body styling and is cheap to run and really fantastic to drive

Introduction about the Ford Fiesta:

The Ford Fiesta is a supermini unveiled by Ford since 1976 over seven generations and produced globally, including in Europe, Argentina, Brazil, Mexico, China, India, Thailand, and South Africa. The Ford Fiesta has been UK’s best-selling car since 2008, and it’s quite easy to see why. The Fiesta is quite simply one of the best all-round small hatchbacks obtainable today.

In spite of being almost eight years old, there are still very few rivals that can match the Fiesta’s blend of comfort, versatility and driving enjoyment. And with a range of very fuel efficient petrol and diesel engines, as well as decent residual values, it’s cheap to own, too. All that makes the Fiesta one of the most persuasive new small cars you can buy. It’s not perfect – the cabin’s button-heavy styling is dating fast, and others offer better quality – but it remains near the top of its class.

Engines, performance and drive in Ford Fiesta:

From very frugal and quite stagnant to quite frugal and swift, the Fiesta range covers all bases – but each drives superbly. The Fiesta has a stature for delivering fun handling and an enjoyable drive, and it can still show its most recent rivals a thing or two about driver involvement. The steering is light and direct, making the car agile and fun to drive, while easy-to-use controls and fine visibility make the Fiesta a confidence-inspiring partner around town. On the motorway, a smooth ride and a quiet interior give it a ‘mature’ feel.

Despite coming with electronic stability control and resistance control as standard, the Fiesta has a ‘natural’ feel to the driving experience that even some sports cars can’t emulate. The brakes are exceptional too, easy to operate smoothly while powerful too. That’s especially the case with the ill brakes fitted to the most powerful ST model. The Fiesta is a great all-rounder then, though the Volkswagen Polo is the class top dog in terms of outright perfection, especially at top speeds.

Engine in Ford Fiesta:

Like the powerful 1.2-Litre Ford Fiesta engine, the 1.0-litre turbo Eco Boost with 98bhp is really impressive Fiesta engine, which not only has more than enough low end gruff for the supermini, it’s also keen to rev and sounds rich with it. In the real world, this means confidence-inspiring outstripping speed that allows you to power up motorway ramps even in top gear – hills that would leave some small cars struggling.

A low power 1.0-litre 3-cylinder engine is accessible too, without the turbo of the Eco Boost models and produces 79bhp. The 98bhp engine does 0-62mph in 11.2 seconds, and the 123bhp version in 9.4. Another 1.0-litre Eco Boost engine takes power up to 138bhp, naturally offering an even quicker 0-62mph time – just 9 seconds.

Our opinion about the Ford Fiesta:

The Ford Fiesta is very spacious and versatile and that’s why it’s an easy supermini to live with and it has some clever tech as well. Overall, the Fiesta is a smart option to buy.
