We recommend the top rack variant SE for its handful of advanced features and it is just a tad more expensive than the base variant when it comes to price, but it is also equipped well with some convenient features such as Navigation System, Remote keyless entry, air conditioning, and some flawless driving aids.

The Ford Fiesta comes with only one engine option. It is equipped with a 1.6 liter inline 4 peppy engine that is capable of producing 120 hp @6350 rpm of power and 112 Nm @ 5000 rpm which is quite good for a car of this standard. The engine is linked to a 5-speed manual transmission and comes as the only Front-wheel-drive variant. 

In acceleration test, The Ford Fiesta reaches a 0-60 mph in a passable 9.5 seconds and a quarter-mile in 17.2 seconds which is quite decent in its segment, while the top speed figures are not known. The Ford Fiesta delivers seemingly mediocre performance figures.

In comparison, all three cars use the same 1.6-liter inline 4 engine and are channeled as front-wheel-drive variants only. Both Hyundai Accent and Nissan Versa are mated to a 6-speed automatic transmission, while the Fiesta gets the conventional 5-speed manual transmission which in turn gives a good top end. 

In acceleration test, the Hyundai Accent, with its highest power output takes down the other two cars and rips 60 mph from a standstill in 9 seconds while the Ford Fiesta and Nissan Versa manage to hit 60 mph in 9.5 and 9.8 seconds respectively which is only a two tenth of a second slower than the Accent.

The 2014 Ford Fiesta was conceived with one thing in mind, say to make it an economy car for the prospective mid-range buyers and so fuel economy plays a vital role in this compact sedan segment.

Combined it gives a tremendous average of 31 mpg and it also gets the largest tank of 12.4 gallons that lets it cover 347.2 and 446.4 miles in the city and on the highway respectively.

The ideology of the interior is maximum utilization, which is to make the most out of the materials used. The options to adjust the steering wheel and the seat height make it easy to find the ideal driving position. A well-laid-out instrument cluster, with soft touchpads and the use of first-class materials, makes it more upscale than its predecessor in every way.

The Ford Fiesta has a seating capacity of five passengers, which is also the segment standard. The seats are very comfortable and the upholstery options feel supreme and it blends well with the pleasant aura of the cabin.
