The Last of Ford's Fiestas - Your Chance to Purchase the Classic Hatchback
As one of the nation’s most-loved vehicles, we’re all sad to see the end of such an iconic vehicle. Though there’s still plenty of time to get yours, as you can still purchase a Ford Fiesta until June 2023.
Chances are, you’ll have seen a few Fiestas on the road when out and about. That’s because the Ford Fiesta is one of the UK’s most popular vehicles, having been a hit since its debut in the early 1970s.
That’s why it was a surprise when Ford announced that they will no longer be producing this iconic small hatchback.
Though it’s not the end of the Ford Fiesta just yet, as you can still get your hands on one until June 2023.
We’re taking a look into the top features we all know and love about the Ford Fiesta, and what makes it such a fun, enjoyable car.
Stylish Design
Part of the Ford Fiesta’s appeal rests in its dynamic design. The Fiesta is a small hatchback that uses minimalist yet sporty design and style, showing that less truly is more.
The sleek profile consists of a rounded front nose with a honeycomb grille design, distinctive LED headlights and subtle body contours for enhanced aerodynamics, and a spoiler to the rear. This creates a subtle yet stylish vehicle with a clean, modern look.
Inside, this playful, energetic style continues with black cloth upholstered seats with a metal-grey stitching with the Fiesta Trend, Ford’s entry-level Fiesta model. Advancing through the range, models such as the Active X and ST-Line incorporate Partial Sensico fabric seats with colour-contrast stitching for a touch of added detail.
Other elements also come with added style throughout the range, including 18” double-spoke alloys with a bi-colour finish and luxurious features such as a heated steering wheel and heated front seats, as well as a rear view camera.
Modern Technology
Another thing that the Ford Fiesta is revered for is its practical technology and equipment, which come together to create the fun, enjoyable experience you would expect from such a vehicle.
Once again keeping things simple, the Ford Fiesta gives you everything you need for a convenient, easy drive yet doing so in a way that considers modern technology.
Even with the standard model, the Ford Fiesta comes with a range of efficient technological features all designed to improve your drive and optimise your comfort. These include manual air conditioning, an 8” colour touchscreen display, Apple CarPlay and AndroidAuto, USB charging ports, and various others.
There’s also several driver assistance features to make driving easier and smoother, cruise control complete with an adjustable speed limiter, and a tyre pressure monitoring system to keep your Fiesta road-ready.
Newer Fiesta models offer an updated 12.3” digital instrument cluster, making all the handy driver information you need easily accessible to you with a high-definition display.
With the Titanium X, ST-Line X, Active X and ST, this can even be personalised between drivers to prioritise which information is displayed according to your preference – so you’re always in control.
In terms of the drive itself, the Ford Fiesta also benefits from an intelligent transmission system known as EcoBoost Hybrid Powershift. This seven-speed, dual-clutch automatic transmission enables the smoothest of journeys with increased gear ratios, a low-weight design, and advanced clutch performance.
This gives you seamless gear changes and a much smoother drive, which can be especially beneficial when caught in traffic and travelling at varying speeds.
Take Your Pick
With the Ford Fiesta, there are a wide range of trim and specification options for you to choose from.
These include the Fiesta Trend, Fiesta Titanium, Fiesta Titanium X, Fiesta Active, Fiesta Active X, Fiesta ST-Line, Fiesta ST-Line X, or the Fiesta ST.
With orders remaining open until June 2023, this gives you plenty of time to get your hands on one of these iconic models before the Ford Fiesta ceases production. You can order yours now online, or pop into your local Macklin Motors dealership.
