The Ford Fiesta SE is like most of the cars on our lot – it’s compact, economical, and fuel efficient.
However, the Fiesta SE is above and beyond the typical subcompact. The Fiesta is sportier and more dynamic than most basic subcompacts. It has a voice activated stereo system via a Bluetooth link to a Smartphone, as well as a trip computer.
It is the ideal car if you want to ride in style but want to keep it simple.

INTRODUCTION: “[The Ford Fiesta] is a car that today's newly arrived urbanites should find perfectly fitted to their needs, wants and comforts.USER REVIEWS
Inside, the Fiesta breaks new ground in the mobile multimedia market with a voice activated infotainment system (SYNC) that augments the traditional AM/FM/CD/MP3 stereo with audio and podcasts streamed into the car's sound system via a Bluetooth link to a smart phone. Non voice audio controls and for creature comfort settings revert to basic knobs and buttons that are sized and arrayed for ease of use with minimal distraction from the driving task.
Comfortable seats have enough side and bottom bolsters to keep occupants properly positioned, but gingerly, without obstructing ingress and egress. Quality of interior materials is either on a par with or a tick or two above the expected standard for cars in the new Fiesta's class.
The new Fiesta feels right at home running around town and on weekend errands. It slips conveniently into fleeting gaps in stop and go urban traffic and into space limited parking slots. Its 120 horsepower, 1.6 liter engine will take the daily commute in stride. Ride is smooth. Wind and road noise is decently muted. Steering feel is certain. Corners taken at responsible speeds reveal little body roll. This means it'll also handle quite well a relaxed Sunday drive to the coast or to a family gathering.
The two body styles make distinct statements. The sedan is an interesting combination of an American style econobox with softened edges and a high rear deck (trunk lid). The hatchback presents a more satisfying, Euro like profile, with nicely wedged side character lines and an almost sensuously rounded posterior. Choice is in the eye of the beholder, but both are pleasant and more than competitive in today's design conscious new car market.”
