Excellent value
Dave, Fairbury, NE, 04/28/2019
2019 Ford Fiesta S 4dr Sedan (1.6L 4cyl 5M)
I simply love this little car. It gets better mileage than any car I ever owned and is quiet, comfortable, handles very well and I think it is nice looking. It is not a hot rod but it will cruise at 80 MPH all day if you need to. It gets about 40 MPG on long drives at 60-65 MPH. It is a great value. It is a shame Ford is discontinuing it.
A lot better car than you expect for the money
Mark , Beachwood, OH, 10/17/2019
2019 Ford Fiesta S 4dr Sedan (1.6L 4cyl 5M)
I bought the stripped one, literally no options at all & really don’t feel a bit deprived.. a decent radio, super- slick shifting 5-speed, rear defroster, even came with floor mats & makeup mirrors. Three free oil changes from Ford & another free oil change from the dealer. Five years of Ford warranty for $197 a month.
Nice Car

Edmunds Summary Review of the 2019 Ford Fiesta S Sedan
What’s new
- Hatchback's base S trim has been dropped, as has the luxe Titanium trim
- New ST Line trim brings sporty styling to the standard Fiesta
- Part of the first Fiesta generation introduced for 2011
Pros & Cons
- Pro:Sporty handling in turns
- Pro:Well-appointed interior with advanced technology options
- Pro:ST model's zesty performance
- Con:Limited cargo and rear-seat space
- Con:Some rivals offer better ride quality and seat comfort
Which Fiesta does Edmunds recommend?
The base S model is priced competitively, but it lacks basic features — such as cruise control and power windows — that buyers should expect from a car in 2019. The SE doesn't cost much more and adds those features, plus alloy wheels and an armrest. It also opens the door to the SE Appearance package, which we also recommend. It adds a large touchscreen, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto and upgraded upholstery for a negligible price.
Full Edmunds Review: 2019 Ford Fiesta Sedan
Driving
8.5Like other subcompacts, the Fiesta isn't blessed with extra power, and it's not helped by the twin-clutch PowerShift automatic-like transmission in typical driving. Still, enthusiasts will enjoy the sportily tuned chassis.
Comfort
8.0As subcompacts go, the Fiesta lags behind a few competitors in comfort, mostly in terms of ride quality and the seats. But it's one of the quietest cars in the class.
Interior
8.0The Fiesta has a few touches here and there that let you know Ford is trying to make you feel special. It's assembled well, the Sync 3 system is intuitive, and the interior is functional and easy to use.
Utility
7.0While the Fiesta isn't abysmal when it comes to cargo space, it isn't great either. Most of its chief rivals have it beat on cargo space, with the seats up or folded. Small-item storage, however, is laudable up front.
Technology
We're generally fond of the Fiesta's in-car tech from the standard Sync system's voice recognition to the turn-by-turn driving directions and emergency assistance. The available Sync 3 system improves on that idea with sharp graphics, intuitive controls and a 6.5-inch touchscreen.
