    Im so excited. The Fiesta ST will be my next car. Living in Germany with a lot of Forrest around and narrow roads with tight turns this seems to be the perfect little fun machine.

    I had the entry level fiesta... A 2010 model and I had so much fun in it... The fiesta has been the best looking and the most fun car to drive for a very long time now and it just gets better and better... My fiesta got written off in an accident but I want another one, no other car can fill my fun factor like this car... Amazing.

      Jaguar 1991 - The main reason I went with the ST Line is the fuel economy. I do 18k a year mostly on motorways. I have a heavy right foot but with 14k now on the car while on the motorway I pop on the eco button and I am getting over 50 MPG. Take the boring button of and fun on the A/B roads.

    If the Fiesta uses Porsche Recaro designed inspired seats: racing bucket seats with thin reinforced padding as cushion whereas the frames on the insides of the seats use premium-quality grade lightweight aluminium frame and mesh-work, the Fiesta would have an even lighter in weight interior aspect. No thick seat padding for cushion, use thin reinforced padding instead for the seats. You end up with more interior space as well. More plus-plus, so to speak. The lighter in weight the Fiesta is, the faster the Fiesta gets. A matter of optimizing the weight-to-forward traction distribution ratio (drag coefficient, too?) in order to achieve optimum down force with little air turbulence resistance as possible from way up front.

    So how is the low down pull with an engine like that?
    My 208 GTI pulls hard already from 1300 rpm.
    If your driving the car everyday around town and such you want some low end grunt.

    • @mememachine5244
      @mememachine5244 5 років тому +3

      Its power is delivery evenly throughout the entire rev range, so its low RPM might is as powerful as ever.

      Torque is unbelievable on these. About 1500rpm is the minimum, anything below that and you feel the lag, but the torque on this little engine is great. Very similar to the 208 GTI

      It will be worth the wait. I ordered mine (a ST3) July 2018 and only got it 2 weeks before Christmas. Most of the delay was getting onto the production line. Once they started building, it was built and shipped to the dealer in the Uk in a couple of weeks so they can sometimes surprise you.

    Can you do a comparison of the Fiesta ST against the BRZ/ GR86?
    Both affordable by proper fun cars, with very different approaches!
    I’m interested to see your thought because I’d love to buy the new Fiesta ST, but am currently weighting up against the GR86!

If all their customers are telling them, they'll listen and bring us BACK these hot hatches. Thank you for your support in this petition effort!

    As good as the Fiesta ST is, its got too much of a boy racer/hooligan image now in the UK. Nearly everytime I see one, its got some crap decals on it with after-market exhausts that are too loud. They just rev at red lights and sometimes drive up and down the same street a few times for some reason.

    So Im tired of living with my big and boring vectra from 2006 and are tempted to get a fiesta st. Im torn tho if I shoud get a 2016 full spec for 12000 euro or if one should maby get a loan and buy the new one for around 26000 Euro. It will be a everyday car so in that case the new is better but torn on if its worth this amount of cash. Also can only get the new one with 5 doors sadly for some reason :(

    Reinforced lightweight carbon-fibre wheel rims (frames or "velg roda mobil" as we say here in Indonesia) and road-grippy tyres would make the new Fiesta even faster, under 6 seconds from 0 miles per hour to 60 miles per hour... possibly 5.5 seconds, even, I guess...

    Anyone who's owned/driven both this and the previous generation, what's it like in comparison please? Owned a Mk7 which was mega to drive but suspension too hard and seats gave me backache. If this any better in that respect and is it actually as fun to drive as the Mk7?

      I had a mk7 ST mountune MP215 and now have the no 8 ST-2 stock . Performance in stock matches my mk7 Ride is now better, suspension not so stiff. Handles better (get the LSD Specced) sounds better and is more economical!! I just wished it looked better from the rear 👍
