What Is the 2019 Ford Fiesta?
The five-seat Fiesta is Ford’s subcompact car, and it’s available in sedan and four-door hatchback body styles. Power comes from a 120-horsepower, 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine that pairs with a five-speed manual or six-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission. The Fiesta competes with the Honda Fit, Nissan Versa Note and Hyundai Accent. A high-performance Fiesta ST features a 197-hp, turbocharged 1.6-liter four-cylinder that teams with a six-speed manual.

What Features in the 2019 Ford Fiesta Are Most Important?

Should I Buy the 2019 Ford Fiesta?
The subcompact Fiesta is one of the more entertaining small cars to drive — particularly the high-output ST — but shortfalls include uncomfortable seats and an unrefined dual-clutch automatic transmission. The Fiesta’s cabin is also a bit tight, even by small-car standards.
