New Ford Fiesta review - the best hatchback on sale? | What Car?

[@mikewilliams3384]

I have a fiesta vignale 2018 and it is simply brilliant. Lovely to drive and extremely economical. The ecoboost engine is terrific. All in all a wonderful little car.

[@AS-xh8kd]

Was it really expensive cuz I like it too

[@reececollison5101]

The fiesta specced in this video is just shy of £21k 😱 compared that to 2008 when the new one at the time then cost £11k for a decent one. No wonder car new sales have plummeted since 2017, it just means the depreciation will be a lot steeper. I know financing is the way to go for new cars but I far prefer being the owner of one, I just buy low mileage at 4-ish years old.

[@Insetta]

​@OpinionsAreOfMyOwn you must be living in the 1990s. But I gotta thank people like you for taking the massive depreciation for us second hand buyers who lose hardly anything when it comes to sell

[@shill6449]

Is the ST line reliable? I've heard its great fun and a really nice car but getting 140hp from a 1.0L engine makes me a little sceptical with the long term reliability.

[@varph_]

Why is it that What Car literally never mention the Clio, 208, or Corsa as competition when referring to superminis? The Kia Rio? Like seriously?

[@BrateTebra123]

Lame cars. Thats why. The real battle is between Polo and Fiesta and the Polo wins by a margin

[@perpelle]

@@BrateTebra123 Riiiight. The polo looks like it's already 10 years old when it leaves the factory compared to some of the competition. Also, buying a vw nowadays, really? Generally expensive with a falling reliability.

[@BrateTebra123]

@@perpelle You are so brainwashed sir. First of all I visit all of the dealerships and VW had the best quality interior of all of the cars I drove and sat in. Second thing VW has the best resale value of all cars in that price range. And third in my book VW has not lost a thing of their repitation in my book. I drove a new Polo from 1997 to 2016 with no issues except new water pump and a new rear exaust pipe. After it I both a Golf mk6 and it has 100.000 miles on the clock with not a single issue!!! That and the rason that VW gave me the best price is the reason why I chose Polo once again. I am very satisfied with the consumption too average of 44mpg combined cycle for the 1.0TSI. A great little car and a great value for money !!

[@perpelle]

@@BrateTebra123 I didn't know that you associated soft touch plastic with quality. A toyota will outlast two polos. We can exclude transporters huge problem with their engines a few years ago (including horrible paint quality) vws huge problem with their smaller engines and the fact that they cheated on everyone. I wonder who is brainwashed when the only thing you drive are small vws? I listen to mates that own everything from golf's to amaroks and generally the quality isn't there anymore if you look at the price tag. I wouldn't touch a vw product with a 5 foot stick if it was my money since the warranty is crap. 100 000 miles is nothing btw. EVERY vehicle sold should last that. I drive that distance in three years and I expect any new vehicle to do that without any hassle.

[@dgbservices6049]

@Varph yeah like when the guy asks: “what do you think is the best looking car in this class? A fiesta, a polo, a mini or a Kia Rio?” 😂😂😂 errrr.... none of the above!? For me it’s either the new Peugeot 208 or the Alfa Romeo mito, far better looking cars IMO. So is the new Clio.

[@hermitageboy]

My favourite, have had Fiestas since '92😎

[@nathanielmaisey9414]

Great reviews - the detail and references to other cars in the class is really useful

[@imcalledsprite]

Switched from a 12 plate Corsa recently. Had a test drive in an 18 plate ST line, I wanted to like it more than I did but it felt cheap and I was disappointed. Settled on an 18 Mazda 2 GT Sport Nav+ at the same age and price. Thought the Mazda was much better made by a longshot. It has much more comfortable suspension and better chassis balance, not to mention the 1.5NA petrol, super smooth and punchy 115 HP engine making tons of power in a 970 - 1030 KG car (130HP maps available). Mazda also has a short throw stick and lovely 6SPD box which is awesome, heated leather seats, cruise control, start-stop and HUD display with collision warning (and automatic braking), automatic wipers and automatic LED projector lights. Lots of metal and leather on the inside and super comfy, all toys that the £12000 fiesta didn't offer at the same price point. The only real downside are the drums on the rear, but I never liked my brakes too stabby for casual driving anyway! Japanese can really make small cars. I highly recommend it.

[@Megavector2022]

Nice to see this review has the same colour (Desert Island Blue) that I chose - I haven't seen another one since I bought it! I have the ST-Line X 140 - a much nicer drive than the Mk 7 ST2 I had before, with a hugely improved interior......but I do miss the extra 40 bhp :-( . Fuel economy is much better though :-D (edited to correct mark number!)

[@tomg1232]

I like the front design of the car but the back puts me off, reminds me of an suv which looks out of place on a hatchback. Just my opinion. That's said I'm sure it's a cracking little car otherwise.

Yeah the rear is disappointing and looks a bit bland and out of place. However, the interior is miles ahead of the old one

[@forza223bowe5]

The polo has the build quality, but apart from that it’s a dull car

[@garydavis1528]

Build quality🤔🤣 VW built & sold over 13 million totally illegal toxic cars 2008-19 in both diesel plus small engine petrol cars. Terrible deliberate criminal engineering. Family found their cars totally unreliable, stupidly expensive for what they are to repair to keep on the road and yes extremely dull and tedious to drive so Ford and others have nothing to worry about other than total ignorance of many buyers that VW group relies upon for sales in pretending to be what they really aren’t. They are not a customer focused company with good quality cars unless you are buying it for its plastic interior but not for it’s mediocre drivetrains and suspension, spring coils suspension kept breaking on family and friends! None will ever buy again.

Not to mention windows disappearing into doors. A known VAG fault, but they still charge 3 figures to fix it.

My commute is 26 miles round trip with the majority on motorway. It’s quiet and nippy. It averages 49mpg but can drop to 43mpg if just around town for a few days. I’ve had no problems with the power train. I would recommend it but next time I would get the 125 or 140 but that’s just my preference.

@@alexb2612 1.0l, 125 PS. The intake valves just like the car never needed any work. The 1l EcoBoost is a tried and tested engine. Just put the proper oil in and don't skip regular oil changes and it is ultra-reliable. Btw it gives me the economy of a diesel, between 5,1 to 5,5l of fuel per 100km, depending if more motorway or more hilly town driving. No regrets here

Great car, but pity they don’t do it with a detuned 1.5 petrol engine, somewhere inbetween the 1.0 140hp & 1.5 200hp. The 1.0 petrol engines are all somewhat lacking in torque.

[@forza223bowe5]

Interesting you think that, I got the impression that they had 200 NM of torque that’s surely more than enough ?

[@Benzknees]

Forza223 Bowe - I think it’s 180, whereas my present car has about 320 (it’s a 2.0 diesel, that has the same power output as the Fiesta). When I test drove the Fiesta it felt distinctly lacking in this respect (trying to overtake a car going up a hill), but otherwise was v.impressive.

[@forza223bowe5]

Benzknees I think the point made is it’s very impressive for a 1.0. I suppose diesels are more grunty and the power is always there.

Forza223 Bowe - It is indeed, but not quite impressive enough for me on the overtaking front. And the full fat ST is too attractive to joy riders, so I’d really like something inbetween. As Ford already have such in two versions fitted to the Focus, it wouldn’t be too difficult.

[@user-xg6zz8qs3q]

Ford Fiesta all the way! I drive a Peugeot 208 and it's undoubtedly FRENCH due to its stupid quirks. The controls are in all of the wrong places. The gearbox and breaks are unexpectedly soft (some people like that). The seats are uncomfortable, the steering wheel hides the instrument cluster due to its tiny size. And the interior has so many sharp lines and weird nooks that it takes twice the amount of time to clean properly. That said, the Peugeot 208 is fine as a daily driver. It's pretty fun to drive, the reliability is excellent and fuel economy is good. But if you want to buy a FRENCH car, specifically a PSA product, then buy an Opel. It's as if the Germans took a 208 and carefully eliminated every stupid FRENCH quirk. Even FRENCH auto journalists preferred the Opel Corsa over the 208 because it's easier to live with and breaks better.

Why have they eliminated the Zetec what a STUPID thing to do haven't seen more that 2 trend fiestas on the road!!🤬🤬 the fiesta and focus have been ruined

[@th-l8936]

Why is it stupid of Ford to replace the Zetec trim level with that of Trend?

[@Bates.N1]

@@th-l8936 because only one base engine, put a horrible plastic grill on front, revolting seats also Zetec was most popular and reasonable trend is cheap and nasty! The zetec name has been in for years too!

[@forza223bowe5]

Eral Akman They need to have the eco boost engines back on it

[@David_H-73]

@@Bates.N1 don't mind the grill , makes a change from the chrome bars. Strangely the trend has a horrible plastic steering wheel where the zetec had leather. Another anomaly is the trend has electric rear windows and rear privacy glass where as the higher spec STline doesn't.

[@Bates.N1]

@@David_H-73 really weird and annoying Zetec name has been ruling the roost for ages for good reason hate the grill looks basic and no need to take off zetec it was best option

VW are dreadful for reliability. Ford trumps it

[@stanthemafia]

The fiesta shits on the polo

[@rhysdavies4755]

VW golf and polo run the game

[@petercarey5857]

Ford is super!

[@dgbservices6049]

“What do you think is the best looking car in this class? A fiesta, a polo, a mini or a Kia Rio?” 😂😂😂 Errrm.... None of the above?! For me the new Peugeot 208 and Alfa Romeo Mito are far better looking than all those others...

[@H.K_R]

DGB Services they don't sell the MiTo new now

[@1300l]

I wish we had a 1.6l NA engine based on the latest Duratec. About the Polo, good car but ugly as hell!

[@forza223bowe5]

And boring too

[@RacexEV]

Change your title back to 2019

[@michaelsimpkins5178]

Ecopop engines

[@adit_the_drummer]

Evopoop sound, hope the transmission wouldnt have so much malfunction in this new fiesta

[@daviddallaway8253]

SEAT Ibiza is a nicer looking car very difficult to choose

[@twocoolpandas1534]

5,3 doors ???

[@playingkyle2k10]

Two cool Panda's most Hatchbacks in the UK are referred to as 3 and 5 door as you can get in/out through the boot unlike a saloon which is harder. I guess this is more in reference to exiting in a emergency that there is 3 or 5 ‘doors’ to exit from.

[@EdgarRenje]

25 bhp for just 0,6 s quicker acceleration isn't really much.

[@youraveragejoe1]

I know this was a year ago but I don’t really understand the figures. Fords are often a bit slow for their power, but the last gen did 0-60 in 9.1 and now this is suddenly much slower…

[@z0m123]

They all look like a lab made potato "without salt".

[@EastbelgiumPhoto]

Should be electric...

[@alexb2612]

There is plenty time for electric power engines. UN agenda 21/2030 sustainable development has all the plans in place to get people out of their cars for good. So enjoy driving while you can.
