The Ford Fiesta has been one of the best-selling cars in the UK for a long time, this is for a number of reasons including the stylish looks, fantastic interiors, great handling and affordability.
The Ford Fiesta, originally produced at the purpose-built factory in Valencia, Spain, has seven different generations currently available with sales beginning in the UK in 1977. All seven generations are based on the same style of being a compact front wheel drive hatchback.
Whether you’re looking for a small town run-around, your very first car, or something to get your pulse racing, there is a Fiesta that suits your needs.
Within each generation, Ford decided to offer multiple trim levels. Here is a quick rundown of all of them:
There are also many different trim levels to choose from when it comes to the Fiesta so here is a breakdown of some of the most popular ones from the current seventh generation:
This is the most basic trim level that you could opt for with the current generation. It comes with air conditioning, a digital 4.2 inch display with Bluetooth connectivity, a speed limiter and auto headlights. This trim level has since been dropped and replaced with the Trend spec.
The Zetec comes with alloy wheels, a heated windscreen and an updated, larger 6.5 inch touchscreen infotainment system with the ability to connect to a phone. This trim level has also since been dropped and replaced with the Trend spec.
This is the current entry level specification which has replaced both the Style and Zetec models. It comes equipped with a heated windscreen, alloy wheels and air conditioning. It is also offered with an 8 inch touchscreen infotainment screen with the ability of using Apple Carplay and Android Auto.
This model comes in a similar spec to the Zetec model, however, it has had a few important upgrades. Firstly, the Bang & Olufsen audio system with the large 8 inch touchscreen infotainment system also comes with a built in sat nav. There is also the option to choose exclusive paint colours to really make your car stand out.
The titanium comes with a higher specification including a wider choice of engines. As standard, the vehicle comes with electric folding mirrors, cruise control, an 8 inch infotainment screen with sat nav and sportier alloy wheels alongside other options too.
This is available in the same titanium spec but also with exclusive paint colours to choose from alongside the addition of the Bang & Olufsen audio system also.
This is available with the fantastic sound system, heated half leather seats, keyless entry, a heated steering wheel and a rear parking camera.
The ST-Line variants add a middle ground between the flagship ST model however, with a bit less performance and more affordable running costs. They come with a choice of engines including 140 bhp petrol engine. These come with sportier wheels and styling, firmer sports suspension and a slightly more driver oriented interior.
