The model
Read full Ford Fiesta reviewSuperb to drive, pleasant to sit in and well equipped. The Fiesta is a fine small car, but it can prove quite pricey in higher trims and the Volkswagen Polo just has the edge for ride comfort, safety and rear-seat space.
The trim
See full equipmentThe entry-level trim is well worth your attention because it comes with plenty of standard equipment, including 15in alloy wheels, a heated front windscreen, air conditioning, an 8.0in touchscreen infotainment system with DAB radio, Bluetooth and Apple CarPlay/Android Auto smartphone mirroring, LED headlights and cruise control. It's not available with optional automatic emergency braking though, so we recommend upgrading to Titanium trim.
The engine
See full engine specsThe mid-range 99bhp engine is a fine engine, pulling well from low-revs and sprinting from 0-62mph over a second faster than the 74bhp entry-level engine. Even better, it manages decent fuel economy, helping keep running costs low. All of that makes it our favourite engine.
