2018 Ford Fiesta Review

 
At Butler Ford Milledgeville, we believe that daily commuting is much less of a grind when you have a fun-to-drive car to handle the trip. That's why we want to extend this closer look at the 2018 Ford Fiesta. For a bite-size subcompact car, the Fiesta packs a big party behind its doors.

If you live near the Milledgeville, Eatonton, and Sparta areas, read this car review to learn all about the Fiesta and its performance, technology, and exterior features. When you're finished reading, contact us if you have any questions and to schedule a test drive!

2018 Fiesta: A Sleek & Chic Exterior

The sense of fun that permeates the 2018 Fiesta starts with its exterior shell. Whether you choose the stylish Fiesta sedan or the flexible hatchback, you can count on a design that's sure to impress. You can choose from ten exterior paint colors to customize your ride, including:

• Hot Pepper Red
• Lightning Blue
• Outrageous Green
• Orange Spice
• White Platinum

Whether you want a sober, restrained shade or one that's really eye-popping, the Fiesta won't disappoint. You can even add the SE Appearance Package for a sporty look. A body-color front bumper creates a more unified design, and the chrome inserts and rear spoiler add a dash of boldness to this ride.

Performance Specs that Pack a Punch

You're probably looking for a small car whose engines defy its size, and the Ford Fiesta may just fit the bill. With 120 horsepower and 112 lb-ft of torque, the base 1.6L 4-cylinder engine is plenty potent for your daily driving around town-but you asked for fun to drive, yes?

For more thrills behind the wheel, the Fiesta ST runs on a 1.6L EcoBoost® I4 engine. That turbocharger helps this engine achieve 197 horsepower and 202 lb-ft of torque for power that'll help you accelerate briskly from a stop or get you moving on the highway.

The Fiesta really comes alive as you're driving on winding roads. Test drivers have found its steering very precise and its handling highly poised for a responsive ride. With the ST trim's sport-tuned suspension, you'll enjoy an even sportier drive!

A Range of Exciting Technology Features  

When you slide into the cabin of the 2018 Fiesta, you'll find all sorts of technology to make your drive easier. Keyless entry comes standard so that you can enter your vehicle without reaching into your pocket so long as your key fob is there.

The Ford SYNC® 3 infotainment system makes an appearance in the Fiesta as well: It's available in the SE trim and standard in the top-tier Titanium trim. It lends you a 6.5-inch touchscreen, an 8-speaker audio system, and two USB ports so that both driver and front passenger can each charge their phones.

Speaking of phones, the system also includes Apply CarPlay™ and Android Auto™. When you plug in a compatible smartphone, you can access select apps right from the SYNC® 3 touchscreen such as your music library, text messages, and navigation apps. Plus, use voice command when you need to keep your eyes on the road!
