Ford FIESTA ST review - what have you done Ford?
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 20 พ.ค. 2024
- This is the Ford Fiesta ST. Powered by a rather petite 1.5 L, 3-cylinder petrol engine, it pumps 200 hp and 290 Nm of torque. Is it enough to call the Fiesta ST a hothatch? Or is Ford living in denial? Let's take a look what the Ford Fiesta ST is all about!

Fiesta ST vs Hyundai i20N vs Abarth 595 - which one would YOU take?
Abarth 595 or Ford Fiesta ST
The Hyundai methinks, close call though.
Hiii Anna i choose i20N👍
@@pauldorset2124 Same for me!
@@totoarriba More practical!
You have a high Vicky appearance, my compliments. It's always a pleasure viewing your reviews.
Thank you very much ❤️
I recently got a second hand 2020 model low mileage. Really enjoying it,and will hang onto it as long as possible now they are stopping making. I've been a Fiesta fan for years. Good video 😊
You address the questions we are after! Excellent.
Another great review episode great content 👌👌
Always great entertainment and fabulous review. Awesome work Anna.
So good, I bought one. Just two points; the seats are inhouse Ford Performance seats, not Recaros, and this 8.5 model has 320 nm of torque. Ford have certainly gone out with a high as this is the best hot hatch I've had or driven since my 205GTI. The two are very different animals, but equally great fun.
Nice one, Anna. Great review. We have the previous model, with the Ford-approved Mountune kit for a few more horses and we love it. That ST suspension is stiff, and the knackered streets of North London can make a cross-town journey a bit of a boneshaker, but we wouldn't have it any other way!
Anna! You always cought my attention with your enthusiasm for fun things!
Like your new intro, especially at 1:23 🤩😍and the Maserati launch at about 1:08. Nice dress in today's review....makes me miss the now-vanished summer.
Toujours aussi élégante, chère Anna. Et vos vidéos toujours aussi soignées et magnifiquement montées. Un grand merci d'un Suisse sur les routes bretonnes...
A great fun to drive hot hatch, including sporty beautiful interior and plenty of room at the same time!! I like its engine, too, which is innovative and powerful!! Thank you Anna for one more lovely nice and so interesting review!!
The engine is probably the worst thing for me, it sounds terrible and delivers fairly okish performance. It drives very well and seems good for a warm hatch. The old 1.6 4c engine though was much better even if the new car delivers better fuel economy/emissions etc.
Hiiii Anna thankyou for your Ford fiesta video review love it too watch the sound is insane from the Fiesta St
Thank you! Oh yes, this sound!!!
Love your new intro Anna. Great review as always. You did fine with the launch considering it was a manual and this vehicle is new to you. I have to catch up on some of your reviews and look forward to it. ❤
Thank you very mich Cliff ❤️ Another review coming up tomorrow!
@@AnnaOnRoads I look forward to it. 😀👍🏻❤️🎅🏻
This 8.5 version of the Fiesta actually puts out 320Nm of torque up from the 290Nm of its predecessor the mark 8...
Great review Anna. I purchased one 5 months ago and it is a great little hot hatch. Your comment regarding someone who is older and living with the suspension on poor road suffices is great advice. It will be interesting to see how long I can tolerate that aspect of driving the car 🤣🤣
What a great review of a great car Anna. Of the Ford cars that I've driven over the years one thing stood out and that's the handling. This little pocket rocket would be very tempting but unfortunately it looks like the performance Fiesta swansong as it's sadly being discontinued. If I could justify it and had the room I would be tempted to go for it but I'm not as young as I used to be but for my swansong it could be worth it for one more laugh. As usual top production, editing and brilliant delivery. Thanks for sharing.
I asked r/fiestast if im too old to own one at 33 - The answer was a resounding no and all these old timers came out of the woodwork to gloat about their ST. 40s, 50,s and even a few 60-something year olds. It did seem like we were all from the states though. the fiesta here has a different clientel than that in the UK it seems.
Great review Anna! We like this car very much👍
Very informative review as always sweetheart 👍😘
Thank you Paul ❤️
Beautiful as always💓
Thank you ❤
@@AnnaOnRoads 💐
Hi Anna! Good video and very good picture and sound quality. I see that even the Ford Fiesta has grown like the Golf and is no longer so small. The seats in the new Fiesta are much better than the first generation when it comes to that, the seats look like they were taken from a supercar like Lamborghini, the design of the seat reminds me of that.
a nice car Fiesta ST..😊.great video @ Anna. my car is born 2018...Mk3 Focus RS...a legend.
Fabulous video 👍👍👍🥂🥳🤓
Anna is Love. Anna is Life!
That Ford looks great 👍 thank you Anna for a great review
It is a very cool machine, thank you Ronny!
Wonderful and beautiful as always Anna..🔝🔝🔝👍🤩😉😘
Not really a ford fan but but love watching Anna drive
Good Test Drive Anna Nice Dress Thanks For The Ride 😍❤️❤️
How did you find the sporty knob ,did it feel ok??
Here in Australia Ford is discontinuing both Focus and the Fiesta sometime during 2023...apparently...pity as there's not a huge choice here anyway and getting smaller, which I guess, is due to what actually sells here...another great review...thanks.
A fine review Anna….we have just got the Puma version and it seems very good so far but we are on 26.3 miles yet so literally on the very start…21.2 being ours plus delivery! We are impressed and even by the build quality…it makes my 2018 Land Rover feel quite old! 😬😀😀😀😀Richard.
Hi Richard, thank you very much. I have reviewed Puma and loved it! It is super fan and very true, the built quality in the ST trim is very very good!
Cześć Anna. Hopefully I got it right. Fantastic review. Ford always know how to make a car handle like a Go-Kart and the Ford Fiesta is one of those legend of a Hot Hatch all the way back when they was called XR2's. It's great to see they haven't lost that fun Hot Hatch fill and it looks like you had a bit of fun with it. Good on you for trying to do the 0 to 60mph in the manual, I think you more than likely done a lot better then me if I was do it. The interior looks pretty good for a Ford. I had to have a second looks when you was going through the entertainment system, at 8:40mins I initially saw "Anna V Mental As Anything", which I was going to say that a bit nasty Ford she a awesome lady. Then I saw "Live it Up". Probably just me being bad hahaha. Really good MPG and sounds really raspy. I know they do a ST Line which I guess its S Line or N line. My neighbour got the ST Line Fiesta. The worst thing about the Fiesta is that Ford are going to stop making Fiesta's next year as in Fiesta is going to be now more and that's such a shame. It's going to be an end of an era. Well excellent video as always. All the best Anna and have a heavenly week god bless you. :-)
Jestem załamany Panie Jason 😞
Życzyłbym sobie aby chociaż usportowione wersje samochodów/hothatchy miały tylko jedną parę drzwi i przynajmniej 4 cylindry.
A tu co mamy? Fiesta i dwie pary drzwi? Przecież to nawet wygląda nie za dobrze - delikatnie mówiąc...
Serdecznie pozdrawiam.
@@janwege150277 Część Panie Janwege 150277. Przepraszam, Jeśli to nie brzmi dobzse, nie znam tak dodrze języka polskiego, więc używam tłumacza Google, aby mi pomóc Myślę, że rozumiem, co masz na myśli. W UK możemy dostać miejsce w 2 drzwiach, które w UK nazywamy 3 drzwiami i tak, wolę to od 5 drzwi. Tak, miło jest mieć 4-cylindrowy silnik, ale 1.5-litrowy Eco Boost ma moc, której potrzebuje. Prawdopodobnie najlepiej zamiast tego wybrać Hyundai i20N. Nie będziemy musieli martwic się o Fiesta, ponieważ Ford będzie lub przestał wtedy produkować. Wszystkiego najlepszego.
Love these cars
Snarly little exhaust note there. 😄
La bella Anna e la piccola bomba😍👍🙏
Very good review Anna. Engine sounds surprisingly good - cracks and pop from a 3 cylinder 1.5? What fun! I’d choose the i20N but this looks a good alternative for those who don’t like the Hyundai.
Thank you very much Dave ❤️ I gotta give it to Ford, they've made this tiny engine very very exciting. Still, I would go for the i20N. I am a huge fan of the N cars. They offer a descent comfort but they are so so exiting!
Love this
Thank you!
Hey Anna, I enjoyed the review I really liked your yacht review on Instagram as well. You’re quite the multitasker .you have to work on the manual launch . I wish TH-cam would work on their notifications as well. I got this nine days later.
Hi Gus, thank you very much! ❤️ Ah, the bloody TH-cam, you never know with them.
@@AnnaOnRoads I love the direction you’re taking your channel. I remember the show lifestyles of the Rich and famous i loved when he went on yacht tours.
@@tampaguy6370 Behind the scenes, I am working on 2 separate projects, time will tell but I hope 2023 will bring a lot more content from around the world ;-)
@@AnnaOnRoads that’s fantastic people love lifestyle videos . Anna, the new Robin Leach I like it.
i wish Ford Focus rs was still here.
So do I!
Yep... and the Fiesta RS.
Great test Anna,and a lovely car.l do believe the Fiesta is going out of production next year.Shame,as this version has got to be the best ever!👍
Crazy isn't it? Has to be one of Fords highest volume sellers too.
I wonder if they will replace it with a new model or we just get the Puma.... which being a mini SUV has zero interest for me. :/
Going to buy a ST3 mk7.5 in the spring... if its even half as good as my old Pug GTI's I'll be happy.
Definitely a hothatch, A very good effort Ford, I would have the Hyundai. However I would tend to lean with the Germans In the Hot Hatch stakes. Great review Anna.
I have heard some people question the staying power of these 3 cylinder units. They are on maximum boost all the time, eventually something is going to give.
As ever, nicely done Anna, always enjoy your reviews.
But what do the actual data tell us?
Thank you Paul ❤ Hmm, I'd say there isn't enough data to make this statement, just like Robert pointed out below 🙂
I’m going on owner comments, people I know. Maybe it’s just a few that had a bad experience? Time will tell.
@@pauldorset2124 Fair enough Paul, but sometimes you get a few of those unlucky ones.
True. If you remember we had a similar conversation about 1.5 litre engines in Mercedes as well. Perhaps we should revisit the conversation in ten years, see how many of these cars are on the road. Be interesting. Always a pleasure to talk Anna, I look forward to your next video!
Beautiful!
No comment on the disposable car but the presenter is great.
Nice reviewer!
Love the review Anna ! Just kick the heels 👠 off and drive rather than changing shoes for better feel 😀
Hi Anna. The engine should not put off buyers looking at buying this car as there is nothing inherently wrong with a 3 cylinder especially as it is a 1.5L. The consensus is 500cc per cylinder is the optimum size for an engine and on top of that the Toyota GR Yaris is a 3 cylinder and look how popular that car is.
Oh I like your choice in music, some good old classic Aussie music and I can even remember when that song came out, shows how old I am lol.
Thanks for your review and great to see you enjoying yourself with a manual gearbox. I just hope they don't die out completely.
ST and more doors than... cylinders 😞
Flowers for Anna: 💐🌸🌹🌺🌷
👍
Anna, dziękuję Ci pięknie za dopięcie serduszka! 🤸♂🙂
Całuję rączki: 😘😘😘😘😘
Nice dress Anna , honestly ! just got yourself a subscriber
Hi from Norway Anna..I do actually prefer the looks of the front of my 5 door Mk8 but that's personal.. they are amazing cars and full on total fun to drive.My car has no mapping or chip tuning stuff..it has just a few bits of Mountune hardware installed and ran 220 BHP and 320 NM on recent test so I am pleased and have no plans to change..the i20N is certainly the main competition..thanks for a really interesting test Anna
Thank you so much Ian! Such a great little car and the 5 door is still very fun fun fun! Driving it in Norway at this time of the year must bring some big smiles!
Good news 🤗
3:44 the facelift model has 320nm of torque, not 290nm.
Thank you for the info! :-)
The fiesta st is a beautiful car, and the engine is great, tho i wish they would at least add a sunroof to it, and maybe roof rails for a roof rack to maybe compensate for the lack of boot space. To me that's probably the only 2 things lacking from it to be a great car.
On the looks side, would be great if it was quad exhaust on both sides, and maybe a better looking rear diffuser.
This is such a great all-rounder - I find it hard to believe Ford is killing it in favour of going to an all SUV line-up. Real shame
people killed it preferring Puma, not Ford fault.
@@FefyGT Fair point (but they are all wrong!!)
Lovely model and the car wasn’t too bad either 😜
Watching TH-cam and suddenly realised 'it's Sunday. I wonder if...'
😁😁
Oh my goodness. One of my favorite vehicles. 1.5L & 6 speed manual the perfect combination for fun driving that won't break the bank. Thanks for the review which as always is so professional and fun.
3 cilindra
I went for the Fiesta, Exactly the same as the one you drove ! The Hyundai is a great Hot Hatch but Droopy eyed, front styling, an over fussy exterior and Cheap Inferior seats compared to the Fiesta put me off. The Abarth is fantastic but impractical. This ST will be a future classic no doubt. Great Review Anna.
Hi Paul, wonderful to hear! Such a great car and sadly, we will only see fewer and fewer of these machines. I personally do love Hyundai but that's just me, both are crazy and naughty! ❤️
i love my little beasty
Does not beat the Alfa but 1.5 is quite impressive.great to see u.u look beautiful
(I am here for the fashion show) 📸📸🌟🌟
Not a GTI or a Mazda 3 hatchback, but probably a good commuter car. 🇺🇸
Great outfit Anna! 😘👌
You will be lucky to get one now with only a few months of production left.
Expect 2nd hand prices for clean 8’s and 8.5’s to stay very high for next 2/3 years
Najlepsze czasy do 100 fiesta robo z gazem w podłodze przy zmianie biegów. Pakiet performance zawiera flat foot shifting więc bez problemów można w ten sposób zmienić biegi jeśli chce się uzykać najlepszy czas.
You can store 1,5l bottles in the front door map pocket.
I think you really liked this car babe!
Anna 😍 wait what Car are we reviewing
Great little car . Where is her accent from I am picking up a multitude of accents ??
It sure is! ❤ Oh, a blend of Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, a proper gypsy!
@@AnnaOnRoads 😎 well travelled love the channel btw
I wonder how Anna was able to manage the pedals in 3 inch heels?
She wasn't! I drive in sneakers ;-)
Oh ! Anna is driving a manuel, really unusual...
Yet I loved it! We are need more of these fun cars
Are we calling this car the Mk9? or Mk8 facelift? I've owned a Mk7 ST, Mk8 ST and now the Mk8 ST Edition. The interior of this verison is almost identical to the ST Edition. The most obvious difference is the electronic dash. The carbon fibre trim was exclusive to the Edition. The front end of this car is a step backwards in terms of looks for me, the front end spliter is a nice touch but the huge Ford logo in the grill and round nose is horrible. Everything else is identical as far as I am aware. oh and the launch control on Fiesta's is a waste of time, you can get a better launch in manual with some decent throttle control. It was fun to use at first but its rarelyt turned on in my car. The Mk8 is still the best choice Fiesta ST for me, as long as it has the LSD!
Funnily enough my Mrs is also called Anna and comes from Poland. Dziękujemy pa pa pa
It’s commonly referred to as the mark 8.5
Sad these are not available in the United States.
I bought my daughter's 2011 Fiesta as a second car. I was pleasantly surprised how much acceleration it can deliver for a small car.
Nice video Anna, really like these little sports cars!
your husband is a very lucky man
🙋♂️😚
Very nice review by a very nice lady.
R u going to beat Argentina?
Proof here that “basic” can match the fun/performance factors of cars whose names end in a vowel. Popcorn noise out the back end and rear seat demo should keep this little devil on “buy”, but sadly, not over here-our loss. Ms. the red gloves, too.
🏴🥃🥃🇵🇱
❤
Anna....the Fiesta ST is great - but your legs are really AWESOME! 😍
Half a litre of displacement per cylinder is the perfect amount.
The only thing about this “hot” hatch is raw driver!!!
;-) ❤
The Aussie/NZ accent is unexpected....🙂
Nice blue dress
Thank you ❤️
You are looking absolutely stunning as always darling 😍 ❤️
🏆 I like you see, very very speed 😘😘😘
3 cylinder sound like diesels ticking timb bomb these eco boosts
They should put an Electric motor in this car!
Como regalo al comprar un fiesta te regalan una degustación de paella🤣
They aren’t Recaros in this version .
Is it fitted with ford's infamous powershit gearbox or a ecoboom engine that over heats and kills the engine or burns the driver to death.
3 cylinder Red Mage rocket... more Tarutaru than ever for an age of fuel sipping $avings.
You are very beautiful and the car with you it's more nice 👍👍👍👍
Fords infotainment system looks like it is from 1992.
Very Hot…..oo was there a car in this video….😇 x
Making dinner for a 91 yr old Mother so Anna , laters 👋
Ford have been making cars than handle across the range since about ‘99 and the Focus launch
We have a Transit 2017 and Mondeo hybrid also 2017 , for work and both drive very very well 👌
These pocket rockets must be turbocharged to get 200 bhp and although the sound is weird at first I think overall I could get used to it
Four doors looks a bit unsporty but very very practical for sure
And that’s enough about the car 👌
No girl is ever going to walk to camera looking more sexy and gorgeous and with driving skills , facts and figures AND a wardrobe to die for than you 💋💋💋
Hot hatch of choice out of fiat and Hyundai but then Renault do know hot
It's actually got 310 NM of Torque 🤔
Come on tell us the truth, did you drive with that shoes? If so, much respect! Show us some foot work on the pedals. Never saw such a heel and toe guide on TH-cam.😬
Ugh I hate Ford. Forcing NA into trucks only. I want to trade in my Fiesta ST for a new one but I can’t!
Body isn't very futuristic for 2022, looks more like 2012. Ford need to be braver .
please stop this crazy design trend, congratulations to Ford for producing cars that look like cars.
Infotainment screen looks like an etch a sketch.
