The Ford Fiesta
is now into its seventh generation – and the newest model continues to show why
it is consistently the UK’s best-selling car. This latest edition has been
completely revamped, and is available in Style, Zetec, and Titanium
specifications.
New alloy
wheels and headlights are among the headlights of a completely reshaped
exterior. The new model is also slightly longer, higher and wider, giving you
increased road presence. Zetec and Titanium specifications include such
aesthetically pleasing additions as a distinctive, hexagonal chrome grille and
rear privacy glass. All models above Style are available with 15”, 16” or 17”
alloy wheels.
Interior
An extensively
redesigned interior boasts increased headroom and legroom for passengers, along
with a larger space for small items in the centre console. A wider, larger boot
provides 292 litres of storage space, which can increase to 1,093 litres with
the rear seats folded down. Furthermore, drivers can experience drastically
reduced levels of engine noise and vibration compared to the previous model.
Higher-specification models offer such amenities as an electronically-operated
panoramic roof, heated front seats, and a heated steering wheel.
The highly
accomplished range of engines available with the new Fiesta include 1.0 litre
and 1.1 litre petrol engines, along with a 1.5 litre Duratorq diesel
powertrain. The most powerful petrol unit, the 1.0 litre 140PS Ecoboost, can
thrust the car from 0-62mph in just nine seconds, even while returning combined
fuel economy of 62.8mpg. The most powerful edition of the 1.5 litre diesel,
meanwhile, achieves the same level of acceleration whilst delivering even lower
fuel consumption of 88.3mpg. At the same time the new Fiesta’s brakes,
suspension and gearbox have all been improved, giving you better cornering
capability, lower stopping distances and smoother gear changes.
Technology and safety
The iPhone-inspired 8” touchscreen (available on Zetec and above) allows you access to a vast range of navigation, communication and entertainment-related functions. Choose the content you want with Apple CarPlay or Android Auto functionality; you can even control the system with your voice, using Ford’s state-of-the-art SYNC 3 technology.
As well as its strong frame and host of airbags, the new Fiesta boasts a range of active safety features, including Lane Keeper Alert & Aid, Speed Limiter, and Rear Belt Minder. Optional features such as Active Park Assist, Cross-Traffic Alert and Driver Impairment Monitor offer even greater convenience as well as safety.
