Ford Fiesta 1.25 (2009) CAR review

Ford Fiesta 1.25 (2009) CAR review

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

Glen Waddington, 11 February 2009 10:30

Ford expects the 1.4-litre petrol version of the Fiesta to be the best-seller. And that’s fine, but we’ve a sneaking suspicion you might be missing out on the sweet-spot in the Fiesta range. The best news is that it’ll actually cost you less too, both to buy and to run. Because we’re talking about the smallest engine in the range: ...

Ford Ka 1.3 TDCi (2009) CAR review

Ford Ka 1.3 TDCi (2009) CAR review

Rated 2 out of 52

Ford’s just launched a diesel version of the new Ka. And why not? All the hardware was there for the taking because the Ka is based on the Fiat Panda/500 platform, so that’s where the engines come from too. This one’s a 1.3-litre common-rail turbodiesel with 74bhp, so it’s 7bhp up on the Fiesta’s PSA-sourced 1.4. The question is, will ...

Ford Fiesta Econetic (2009) CAR review

Ford Fiesta Econetic (2009) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Ford’s gone green with the Fiesta, and added an Econetic version to the range. The usual green mods are present: low rolling-resistance tyres, lowered suspension, rear air deflectors, a modified ECU (peak torque is actually 6lb ft down on the standard engine), low-viscosity oil and a higher final drive. Oh yeah, and it’s got one of those annoying lights that ...

Ford Fiesta 1.4 TDCi (2009) CAR review

Ford Fiesta 1.4 TDCi (2009) CAR review

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

You’re going to see an awful lot of the new Ford Fiesta pretty soon. It’s bound to take its traditional place near the top of the British sales charts, and it deserves to do so far more than ever before. But though there’ll be plenty around, I’d wager three-quarters of them will be petrol-powered – the smaller you go, the ...

Ford Fiesta 1.6 (2008) CAR review

Ford Fiesta 1.6 (2008) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Phil McNamara, 27 August 2008 08:37

Here’s the first drive verdict on Ford’s all-new Fiesta, the most important supermini to be launched in 2008. Not only is the Fiesta Britain’s best-selling small car and the sporting driver’s choice, it’s also the backbone of loss-making Ford’s turnaround plan. By 2010, the Fiesta hatchback will be on sale in Asia and North America (as well as Europe), a ...
