We Recommend

The SE Trim has features like Aluminum Wheels and Power Windows which we feel adds to the premium feel of the Sedan.

Its 120-horsepower rating is average for the class, and although this isn't a necessarily brisk engine, its smooth power delivery makes it enjoyable to drive- MSN.com

Engine and Transmission

Ford offered the Fiesta at first with 2 set of motor choices, to be specific a 3 Cylinder Turbo and a normally aspirated 1.6L engine. The previous engine didn't turn out to be as well known among the masses because of its value matching some higher segment vehicles.

The 1.6L Inline 4 Cylinder is the work horse for the 2019 Fiesta. It offers 120HP and 112lbs-ft of Torque, which is similar to other Cars of the section. The Engine is exceptionally smooth in activity and has enough left in store to wave through City Traffic.

Models	Ford Fiesta S Sedan	Chevrolet Sonic LS Sedan	Nissan Versa S Sedan	Hyundai Accent SE Sedan	Kia Rio LX Sedan	Toyota Yaris L Sedan
MSRP	$14,260	$16,295	$13,255	$15,880	$16,195	$16,370

The Transmission duties are handled by a Slick Shifting and Superb 5 Speed Manual Gearbox, This is probably the Best Performing Transmission in this comparison as the Gear Shifts are Precise and engaging to shift gears through.

For those looking for a more Hassle Free driving experience, Ford offers a Dual Clutch Transmission as an option on both the trims for an additional $1,000.

Acceleration

The Heft of the Fiesta and the dated 1.6L inline 4 Engine of the 2019 Fiesta doesn't help its motivation in its quest for being one of the quickest hatchbacks in the segment.

Execution Aficionados anyway have the choice of moving to the Fiesta ST as it offers extraordinary quickening from an exceptionally intense engine

Models	Ford Fiesta S Sedan	Chevrolet Sonic LS Sedan	Nissan Versa S Sedan	Hyundai Accent SE Sedan	Kia Rio LX Sedan	Toyota Yaris L Sedan
0-60 MPH (seconds)	9.1	8.2*	9.9*	9.3	8.5	8.2
Quarter mile(seconds)	17.2	NA	17.6*	17.0	16.7	16.4

Emission (Tons/yr. of CO2 Emissions @ 15K mi/year)	5.7	NA	NA	5.5*	5.5	4.9

*Based on Previous Year Data

The Nissan Versa Note is the Slowest of this lot because of its underpowered motor. The Ford ranks second worst in the 0-60 run due to its hefty weight and Engine while the Chevy Sonic and the Toyota Yaris lead the pack.

Ride and Handling

One of the Highlights and a Top Selling Point of the Fiesta has to be its Handling. The new Generation of the Fiesta was created in Europe and thus the Handling radiates Typical European Flair. The Steering is exceptionally responsive and responds to driver inputs quicker than some other vehicles in this segment while the Chassis keeps the Body stable amid tight turns.

With a Stiff Tuned Suspension, the Fiesta doesn't feel as Comfortable to ride in Cities. Hindrances and potholes can be felt at rates over 25mph and may become relatively uncomfortable at higher velocities.

Braking

The Braking Performance of the Fiesta is like alternate Cars in this comparison. The brakes offer a respectable byte and will in general perform fine in everyday use.

Under substantial braking conditions, there might be a touch of Nose Dive yet isn't disrupting in any situation with the brakes guaranteeing the Car ceasing at the correct minute.

Brake Front (in.)	10.2	10.8	10	11	11	10.2
Brake Rear (in.)	7.9	9.0	8	8	8	7.9
70-0 MPH (ft.)	NA	NA	188	NA	182	179

While we can’t comment on the Braking Distance of the Fiesta for now, we do feel it will be similar to other sedans in the segment.

The Fuel Economy from the 2019 Ford Fiesta Sedan positions among the best 50% of the section. The Fiesta anyway could have improved the situation in the event that it wasn't so overwhelming, which will in general diminish the MPG Figure.

Models	Ford Fiesta S Sedan	Chevrolet Sonic LS Sedan	Nissan Versa S Sedan	Hyundai Accent SE Sedan	Kia Rio LX Sedan	Toyota Yaris L Sedan
MPG (city)	27	28	27	28	28	30
MPG (highway)	35	37	36	37	37	39
MPG (combined)	30	32	30	31	32	34
Fuel Tank Capacity(Gallons)	12.4	12.2	10.8	11.9	11.9	11.6

The Fuel Tank Capacity of the Ford is the biggest in this comparison and as a result, the range 334Miles on a standard full tank ensures fewer trips to the fuel station.

Ergonomics and Comfort

The Fiesta offers Seating Space for 5 Adults yet in all reality, things are somewhat different. The Front Head Room, Leg Room and Shoulder Room will be OK for average height travelers. Things anyway get somewhat dodgy when we get to the back.

The Rear Seating region in principle can situate 3 Adults however in actuality, it should be best left for Short Adults or Children. The Headroom isn't extraordinary and taller riders may discover their Head contacting the Roof all the more regularly.

Models	Ford Fiesta S Sedan	Chevrolet Sonic LS Sedan	Nissan Versa S Sedan	Hyundai Accent SE Sedan	Kia Rio LX Sedan	Toyota Yaris L Sedan
Passenger capacity	5	5	5	5	5	5
Front Head	39.1	38.7	39.8	38.9	38.9	38.2
Front Shoulder	52.7	53.4	51.7	54.2	54.1	53.1
Front Leg	43.6	41.8	41.8	42.1	42.1	41.9
Rear Head	37.1	37.8	36.6	37.3	37.4	36.8
Shoulder Head	49.0	53.0	51.7	53.7	53.3	50.0
Leg Head	31.2	34.6	37.0	33.5	33.5	34.4

The Rear Shoulder Room isn’t the best in Class as well and the dark interiors add to the Claustrophobic feeling inside the Sedan.

The Seating Materials aren’t of the best Quality as well and the Cushioning of the Seats could have been better. The Windows don’t fully roll down and this adds to the feeling of lack of space inside the cabin.

Infotainment
