The Ford Fiesta ST is back, with a new three-cylinder turbo engine and promises of a more comfortable ride and even better handling than its much-loved predecessor. So is it still king of the small hot hatches? James Batchelor finds out...

Great review, lots of info, intelligent storage solutions, and just look at those Recaro seats, sporty and fun.
Great review. Thanks James.
Decent review, James. Was enjoyable to watch. Keep it up!
Great review first video I have watched on the channel. Presenter very likeable. Subscribed 👍🏼
Great Video Review
Does the limited slip differential benefit MPG and lower tyre wear?
Yep good video worth interesting to test sticks straight into the action unlike other videos to go waffling on for about 10 years
Uhh. The ST 1 cannot be specced with Performance pack Afik?
The Fiesta ST is amazing to drive it gives you smiles per miles
Good seeing James again :)
Thanks for the review. What's the name of the music in the background?
The ST 1,2,3 designation is not available in the United States right?
I only realised that this wasn’t Quentin when he expressed his dislike for radio four, Quentin’s a regular guest on Woman’s hour.
The face of the car looks very 👽 ish... With those daytime running lights.. Even more...
And I like this guys review... :)
That is one beautiful shade of blue.
It's a pretty common blue, it's just great camerawork with the shadows and reflection and contrast.
It also looks like the car is either brand new or has been professionally cleaned.
With that licence plate, it ought to have a Volvo-derived T5 engine under the bonnet (and AWD)
soundtrack name?
I'm thinking of buying either the Ford Fiesta ST or the Polo GTI.
Does anybody know how the st drives without the LSD? Ford only seem to provide reviewers with a car with it fitted. Which isn’t fair on consumers who won’t have any clue what the standard car without one is like.
I remember the old GSI models,must be getting old 😂
The boot is actually 311 litres in size.
Can't beat a fast Ford..1.5l, 200bhp, LSD enough power for drizzly UK roads..10/10
I love this car. Its even nicer in person but the old st in my opinion is the 205 gti of this century.
Interesting to hear that! The old one was like a pure hot hatch, not the 'hyper' hatches of today.
CrazyAboutCars 84 yeah it was a purists car just like the 205 gti.
CrazyAboutCars 84 plus the old st had a french engine in it as well.
@@taylorgawn289 that explains the recall on this engine because of cracked cylinderheads.
I am glad the new engine is not french. I know why car mechanics hate french cars.....
@@dom3827 That was ford specific.
Best in class.
Period!
I think it is based on 8th gen fiesta not 7th lol
Give us a fiesta RS ford!
mmtot you’re going to have to wait until 2022 . How do I know if I told you I get the sack . It will be around the £33,000 mark
@@monkeysa43 Yeah okay Ford CEO
0:29 Accidental Partridge? Not sure.
Where’s your red trou Batch
I like most of the improvements they have made but what a pity the back of it is all square now, don't like it at all, it is not even growing on me. I'll stick with my old 5 door ST3 with the hard ride.
Anyway to improve the ride?
I don’t know about you, but I’ve always wondered why for the previous generstion Fiesta ST, the ST200 was never offered in 5 door form like the ST-2 and ST-3 trims...
Josh, in the uk, it is only with 3 doors, the USA still has the mark 6 fiesta, and there, they have only 5 door hatchback and 4 door saloon. There the fiesta ST is 5 door hatchback only. See?
madhuram79 Actually in 2016, Ford introduced the 5 door version of the previous generation Fiesta ST to European soil. The extra pair of doors were offered on ST-2 and ST-3 trim levels, but not the ST200, which was only offered as a 3 door.
And that brings me back to my original question: When Ford eventually introduced the 5 door Fiesta ST to European markets in 2016, why was the ST200 only offered as a 3 door when the ST-2 and ST-3 were offered as a 3 or 5 door?
Thanks God it is not another boring SUV...
nice watch james ive got the newer gloss dial version :) #watchbuddies
The previous st didn’t have a stronger engine
Has Quentin Wilson had hormone replacement therapy?
So it's made by the guys who made the reliability nightmare that is the Focus RS... i'm just filled with confidence
Seriously - him or her are only ever concerned with “cup holders & bottle room and there is a little space for the key - nice”. Irritating to the point where I muted the sound before putting pen to paper. CARWOW for a proper review.
Love the nod to Alan Partridge.
Whats the realistic MPG?
Flare in my 2013 ST I’m getting 36 mpg with spirited driving. So wouldn’t surprise me to get 38-40 real world.
I think from the top gear review they got 38
Im getting 34 in mine in a very hilly area and a lot of good b and a roads
Wait Wait Wait, back it up! They can swallow a large water bottle? I did not see that coming....
Corsa GSI??, thought it was VXR
andrew Coles same thing basically as that’s what the VXR is called for the rest of Europe
I believe Vauxhall are discontinuing the Corsa VXR in replace of a “cheaper” less powerful GSI model
5:27 Didn't know it had overboost, you didn't mention how much more BHP that gives (did you mean extra 20bhp not torque?)
The new engine has no overboost. It's wrong what he is telling.
@@thorstenwillms6423 exactly. You are right. It has no overboost.
oops thought this was Carwow, I'll be leaving now xoxo.
You must be a bad Carwow fan then because they already made a video about this car, haven't seen it huh?
You must like drag racing then
I also thought it was Matt. That's exactly Matt's clothing. James generally has red green or some shiny colour of jeans/trousers.
At least Carbuyer still has Ginny!
car wow sucks sweatyballz
Synthwave track?? Who who?
Great review still kinda cringing with his guy but hey it’s all good 😂😂😂
GJ Canave
He liked the old ST it has a stiffer ride .
That pulling of his drool at 2:33
It may be an ST, but it looks like a Ford C-MAX 2010 from the back - that's a classic design boo-boo.
B7 TMY is crying
hes a wanker
Eh, I like the focus better, so I bought one.
Nice boy 😎
6 % should be 35% ????? 1000 cc vs 1500
8th gen not 7th
Hate to see people flinging the doors back against the hinges like that. What happened to treating things with care and respect? :-(
He also says and like in the 3 door fiesta....it is a bloody 3 door
It has no overboost. That is wrong information you got
Lose the music.
Old one was cooler the new front end looks like an octopus in glasses and braces
better than looking like a girls car with smokey eyes like the MK7
I don’t like the new rims
2018 Ford Fiesta ST Look Better Than The Old Ford Fiesta ST
Not the back of it!
"Fiestra"
Can somebody track test new Fiesta ST with Tesla S ?
8th gen -_-"
“This might look like the old Fiesta ST”...Errrm no, no it doesn’t.
alvstar1984 Gaming yes it does.
People are blind mate. It's still a fiesta so has to have a similar shape but it's completely different. Are people expecting it to look like a toyota yaris?
stolen soon, from a drive way near you
David Hardcastle precisely the reason I won't buy one unfortunately.
Sadly in our part of Leeds car theft is on the up, anecdotally at least. Think three fiesta st have been stolen in five days from local postcodes Facebook group.
Seems ford's are too easy to steal at the moment. Still good for sales...
David Hardcastle Why are fords easy to steal, is it just the push button ones ?
Keyless entry and starting is a pointless, lazy exercise in car makers trying to be trendy. Aimed at millenials who buy into this kind of crap. Get your stop-lock on !
@@oddities-whatnot Well said. What is the actual advantage of not having a physical key that you put into a lock and turn? I honestly can't think of one other than 'it looks cool'.
looks stil bit to normal
Ford disappoint. they have stopped selling cars in North America,including Mexico
I'm in North America. They are sold everywhere here. Don't confuse the future with the present.
That new blue colour is CRAP.bring back molten orange,it’s crying out for it!
Horrible wheels. Do the smaller wheels look the same?
- Catastrophique-ATE Continental Freins à disque avants qui équipent la Fiesta nouvelle neuve actuelle:voyez ,où plutôt écouter ce qui se passe lorsqu'on freine,en terminaison de freinage,c'est grinçant,à croire qu'il n'y a pas de garniture et que cela frotte plaquette sans garniture contre disque sonore,et ceci c'est à tout moment de l'année,et c'est audible à l'intérieur de la Fiesta,vitres fermées,jusqu'aux places arrières;on ressent même le crissement du frottement plaquettes/disques dans la pédale de frein Pour le chef d'atelier,c'est normal...voyons donc! mais après 36 000 km et 1an et demi à rouler,les crissements de tôle en terminaison de freinage sont toujours làl Pas la moindre amélioration! Mais ceci n'est pas sans conséquence pour Ford,car à cause de ces ATE Continental,autour de moi,plus personne ne veut acheter une Ford neuve.
Really bad color grading / Instagram filter like
3 cylinder lol .. i'll pass
good review always
but this car looks like ET
This car is overpriced, over 20 grand, yeah but when you spec it like you want, with heated seats and the LSD etc your suddenly looking at 23 grand. They don’t even include LED headlamps as standard on the ST3. The ST3 with the LSD is over 24 grand, for a Fiesta! Overpriced.
marksapollo it’s not.
ST3 with LSD cost me £21,200
overpriced? Its cheaper than any of its competitors..... so......
is he a fairy?
Without a doubt.
Yup
Good for the driving ladys first car. but the ford fiesta is ugly.
You're getting bald.
YOu dont say?
I like a thrilling hot hatch just like the next guy or gal but going full on into corner with a wheel off the ground just doesn't sit right with me i want to be in absolute control of that much raw power
Its nimble enough to excite all the ford bum boys jk, but push it too far on the wrong road on the wrong corner then ya might be getting a new set of wheels 🦼
ie i heard a kid who traded a sensible car for a ST a week later he was wrapped round a tree.
I just think imo it teases ya to push it that bit harder to get that thrill and use it as a selling point.
I think the ST is tryin to imitate it's bigger bro and just not good enough to get there.
Where as the Polo GTI looks more polished refined while not as much "fun" as the ST the Polo GTI will ease round corners far more comfortably.
But everyone hates the vw because they want that death defining thrill 💩☠👺
Tiny rear windows, small boot, seats don’t fold that far down and naff interior.
Looking forward to Ford ending production on their clown cars.
Your a clown
Waste of every single penny......
Kishan Jadeja Can you enlighten us as to why ? Its all well and good making a statement, but at least back it up with some facts. Thank you.
What do you drive Kishan?
When will you reviewers start giving people the full facts about Ford's. It is one of the worst car manufacturers in the world. Tell us all about their recalls and fines, their reluctance to abide by British law. Tell all why this is now a three cylinder engine ( bet you won't tell us why the four cylinder engine kept causing problems. Head gasket blowing ). I guess you can't tell us the truth otherwise you will lose out on all your freebees. Given up on watching this channel.
Ken Dorney Fords are actually more reliable than any German marque, I have had my fiesta for 8 years and never went wrong apart from usual tyres
If they're the one of the worst, why are they everywhere? Why do you see so many DRIVING around all the time? Probably because they are one of the better brands. I think its the same though for every manufacturer, for every few cars there's one that's always has problems.
Evan Kane Fords are good cars, it’s only car snobs which look down on them
Iv had the past two Fiesta ST and the latest Focus ST, never had any of this trash this joker is spouting 🤷🏽♂️ probably never even had a ford!
What is with VW and their chain and dsg problems? Not even mentioning the Diesel scandal. You sound like Ford is the black sheep which is silly.
