Performance and Fuel Economy

The 2011 Ford Fiesta gives out a sporty spin and a sex appeal, all due to the car’s performance. The Ford Fiesta is a minor in size four-cylinder car that comes with the choice of both manual and automatic gearboxes. In the group of vehicles that the Fiesta is in, it is said to be the best-performing car.

The engine specifications of the car include a 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine that can produce 120 horsepower and a torque of 109 pound-feet. The weight of the vehicle is estimated to be around 2600 pounds. The car’s weight and engine enable it to do 60 miles per hour in about 10 seconds.

Now, if we discuss the vehicle’s fuel economy, it is estimated that the Ford Fiesta delivers around 30 miles per gallon in the city, while on the highway, the car has 40 miles per gallon.

The four-cylinder engine of the car is combined with the Powershift automatic transmission. The vehicle gives out fantastic performance and handling with smooth control over the car.

Ford Fiesta is equipped with a relatively small wheelbase, enabling the driver to have fun around bump stops. The electric power steering fitted in the Ford Fiesta is one of the best that the Company has ever provided. The Company has done a fine job of giving controls that provide excellent performance that satisfies the driver and the passengers.  

Quiet interior, ample power, handsome styling

When Ford launched the Fiesta in 2011, they called its styling “vibrant” and “expressive”. In the subcompact car category, there is no such car in the market that can compete with the handsome and daring style of the Ford Fiesta.

If we talk about the interior of the vehicle, we can say that the inside of the car is made brilliantly. The center dashboard of the Fiesta is made in such a way that it is based on mobile phone keypads, where this dashboard provides the controls for many features present in the car, like the heating system, the sound system, ventilation, and cooling system, and many other types of switches as well. Many areas of the vehicle can be illuminated with colors like the footwells and the cup holders. The colors of the interior include cashmere and plum, which are distinctive for their class.

If we talk about the car’s details, the vehicle is fitted with a small grille under which we can see a big opening. The big wheel arches of the Fiesta give it a dashing look, and the vehicle’s side view is very crisp. The headlights of the Fiesta have been styled to sweep back into the fenders; the taillights of the car are high-mounted.

Safety features of the vehicle

Ford Fiesta has been equipped with the necessary safety features that meet the standard regulations. The vehicle comes with seven airbags, where the driver and the passenger are given side and front airbags. Also, there is a knee airbag for the driver, and there are rear airbags that are also fitted into the vehicle.

In the other safety features of the car, there is an electronic stability control in the vehicle that helps keep the vehicle in custody in case of an emergency. The electronic power steering of the car has made with two essential safety features that are: “active nibble control” which has the job to even out any unbalanced tires and wheels, and a Pull-Drift compensation which enhances the traction control of the car even at side winds or at angled road surfaces.
