For Air-con, remote central locking and electric windows are included with the Ford Fiesta 1.4 TDCi Edge, while the 1.4 turbodiesel engine delivers superb economy with decent performance.

Against The three-door shape makes access to and from the rear seats a bit of an athletic challenge. A high load lip in the boot’s opening also hinders access with luggage.

4 out of 5 stars

There’s no doubting the Ford Fiesta 1.4 TDCi Edge's driving credentials and it’s also one of the most refined cars in its class, but a little more rear-seat space would be appreciated.
