For a small rental car, it’s my favorite in the economy/compact class. Great for backroad driving or driving in the SF Bay Area. I actually tell my customers who are renting these that it’s a party on wheels.
Is it good for a geology student who need to do like field work at times? Once in a while it would be like a field camper car once in a while. I also have to commute at like 38 minutes at like back and forth from Riverside Ca and Pomona Ca.
FINALLY! They change the style of the radio. Other companies have been placing touchscreen radios in their vehicles since 2014. Ford should’ve gotten with the dang program for this model since then (2014) and place touchscreen radios in each and every one of them
This car has a 1.6 L engine that was Co engineered between ford and Yamaha. It's been around since 1995 and it has port fuel injection and solid valve lifters. It's very sturdy. Get the 5 speed manual and you are set for at least 150,000 miles
With the 5 speed manual, keep up with proper maintenance these cars will do well over 300,000 miles. These cars are way more reliable than people think.
Yea ford make long lasting cars with care can’t say the same for Chevy gets something fix on those things another more problems occur I could say ford is the best American car company
Currently have 32.9 MPG in my used 2011 Ford Fiesta. Great reliable car. Had for 3 years, 123,000 miles, and have not had a single issue. Although I am ready for an upgrade (because of how slow it is and how it does not want to accelerate) it did me well for my first car. Great first car.
Having delivered pizza for a week in one, here's some thoughts. The steering is decent, gas mileage is decent, the horse power is decent and the overall handling is decent. The locks delay, the column mounted controls are terrible, the controls for the locks are in the middle which is idiotic. In my case with a hatchback, not much room, even if it's deep, it's literally exactly as wide (front to back) as a pizza bag. Seats fold down, but you got shit in the back seats sometimes, and you're not typically delivering pizza. Speaking of the hatch.l: hold the button, wait, and then you can open. Because delayed reaction with the locks. The seats are hard, and that's comparing everything to the basic ass 2012 Toyota Yaris hatch(great car for the basic assness). The transmission feels like it's going to stall in drive, but sport mode works a little better. There's not much room inside the car. You don't want to have your left leg bent up with your knee resting on the door, because it's just hard plastic, and it's a narrow foot well. The sound system is basic. As far as driving through a town with strict cops, so you're as casual as possible all the time, it's uncomfortable, and shitty. The windshield wipers are pretty good though. The A/C is standard, the lights aren't especially bright and overall... Buy a different car, unless you're stubbornly in love with Ford, which you'd have to be. Or rather small. Which I'm 5'8" 170 lbs, so if you're RATHER small, you might enjoy. The sportiness looks are awkward IMO because it's so narrow, but that's just me. Don't worry about the spelling
In regards to recent gas prices, I know your kicking yourself for not owning one. I purchased the 2019 SE Fiesta for that reason. I travel 80 miles total to work and back .
@@goldpony You should review new the Mitsubishi Mirage. The king of 3cylinders! Since 2014 the data is out, the Mirage is reliable lil car. Wish I could say the same for the Fiesta. Now a manual Fiesta Id trust.
Why not get a totally different car? Because the next level up in subcompacts is a Mini and it's significantly more expensive and has questionable reliability. If you like to drive, you know that you have to buy up quite a bit to get a car that handles and steers this well.
@@halohunter5217 My girl wanted another Fiesta she just loves them.. seems silly to buy the same car all over again, only difference is it's not the Sedan and has heated seats. She wanted a stickshift and loves the Fiesta, I think it's an amazing car (quite underpowered though) and I Normally drive BMW and Hondas. I was trying to get her to look at some STs but there are not many around.
Just got one as a rental. Miserable little car for a 6' 3" guy. By the time I adjusted the seat where I needed it I couldn't rest my arm on the door because its too short/narrow. Even with the seat all the way back and the seatback tipped back a few notches there's still not enough legroom, plus my right leg rests uncomfortably on the center console. The seats themselves are hard and narrow with a short cushion as well. I've rented a few other small economy cars such as the Toyota Yaris sedan (Mazda 2) and it was much better in almost every way.
Thinking about picking one up for my commuter car. These are only ~12k compared to a honda or toyota of similar age, with 2x the miles that go for 16k minimum. Cars are absolutely ridiculous now, domestic commuter cars, not so much. Seem to be reliable from my research up to 100k, which I would hope to give this to a family member at that point anyways when I could afford something better. Praying the car industry improves by then.
This is the car I’m really wanting when I turn 16 in February. Anyone know if that would be a good choice? I’m actually in love with the styling of this car and just don’t want to invest in something that might be a money burner.

I have a 1.0L eco boost from 2015 and I get 60MPG. I already have 100k and have had no issues. I’m a travel nurse so I drive a lot.
Nice car
Love my 1.0. Worst thing Ford did was get rid of this engine in the states.
manual?
@@kylemas2005 of course
1.0l turbo is manual only.
Ford's new engine make good mpgs
Also they offer the st in auto as well.
Nice review! Much appreciated!
I’d go with a Manual trans if I was to get one of these. Best way to go is an ST in my opinion. Great video!
Agreed Eli! Must be a manual in this one.
I really want the ST but this is gonna be my first new car and 14k all the way to 21k is a big difference
You'll really hate your insurance rates on the ST.
I have a 2011 Fiesta SE Sedan and I’m trying to upgrade to the 2019 😂
Mommy Dearest I would, but I’m so used to my current car, and they drive similarly. I’m not for change lol.
Same 🥺

There's a new one. It's so nice. Why are they discontinuing it in the US? Wow.
SUVs is the current trend in the US market. General motors will also halt sedan productions to give ways for their SUVs.
