Overview
The 2017 Ford Fiesta is a midsize sedan offered in 3 trims, starting off at a base MSRP of $13,660. For that price, it mainly competes with the Hyundai Accent, the Nissan Versa, and the Kia Rio. Between 3 trims, the Ford Fiesta offers 2 powertrains. The standard engine is a 1.6L Inline-4 engine capable of making 120 horsepower and 112 lb-ft of torque. If more power and fuel efficiency are required, there is also a 123 horsepower-making 1.0L Turbocharged Inline-3 engine. Both engines are mated to a standard 5-Speed Manual transmission, however, the naturally aspirated engine also provides an optional 6-Speed Automatic transmission.
The Ford Fiesta reaches 60 MPH from zero in 9.5 seconds on its standard engine, which gets pumped up to 8.9 seconds with the turbocharged engine. Depending on the powertrain, the Ford Fiesta can manage a combined fuel economy between 30 and 35 MPG. While we're on the topic of choices, the 9 striking colors the Ford Fiesta comes in really pull you towards itself.
