looking for a good well made and great drive small car, I found this review really good, and am reassured my choice of the fiesta has been a good one.
Ibiza the most good looking of those 3
But the Fiesta the overall winner
st line better looooooking
Peter and Bruno, you both are wrong. I owned a 2018 Ford Fiësta 1.0 ST-line. And now I own a 2018 Seat Ibiza 1.5 FR. I like the Seat better than the Ford. Even the build quality is better than the Ford. Yes the interior in the Ibiza is made of hard plastics, but it makes less noises then in the Fiësta. Cracking sounds all over. And even a better aftersales services front Seat than with Ford
Kor I totally agree with you I’ve driven the fiesta and corsa and seat 2017+ models and the seat beats all of them by far and ofc if you want more then you’ll have to fork out more on the extras which seat has a good list of deffo the seat packs a punch too 👍🏼
Seat Ibiza best looking hands down
I love the way they have all these extras but talk as if they are standard and slate other cars for not having them. Also comparing higher up engine on one car against a lower engine in another (example the fiesta 125Ps is more expensive than the standard 100 PS engine but they compare that to the basic 95PS engine in the Ibiza which is much cheaper). I have the Ibiza FR with 125ps which was so much cjeaper than the new Fiesta and, having had 3 Fiestas previously, is such a better car in so many ways. I'd highly recommend it.
Ibiza for the looks
Fiesta for the driving
Corsa......nevermind
Corsa for the Price
Corsa comes with a 13 year old in the back
Just British cars in general are quite shit
@@theprophetoftruth8268 None of these are made in Britain.
@@theprophetoftruth8268McLaren, range rover, lotus, rolls Royce, Bentley all rubbish?
Ahhh fiesta must be a thrill to drive because based on looks and interior, it's horrendous.
The Ibiza has to win here, for all round package.
My SEAT Ibiza FR 2018 is a 1.5tsi with 150bhp. It has a 6-gear manual transmission, it has electrical windows in the back. The negatives they had about the car was, that it only had 95bhp, only 5 gears and the manual roll-up windows in the back. If they did not go for the cheapest one, there would be no negatives. :D If you do a review of a car, then get all the equipment too! Show the abilities of the car. You cheap bastards :)
Ford Fiesta have 140 hp as well
Next year they will have 1.0 with 155 hp
Fantastic review, hope we see more of you guys!!
Ibiza has also got a 1.0 115 bhp engine with a six speed gear box.
Its amazing how Ford consistently make good driving cars but get overlooked by the over rated Germans.
I think German cars have better interiors compared to cars from other country’s
Nailed it.. the most important part of a car is whether it has a heated steering wheel or not!?.. FFS
I got a rare black seat ibiza fr red edition recently, TSI as well and I'm amazed at its performance! 108/110bhp and 130 torque and I really feel the FR in it as well! Especially under premium petrol! Got it for atleast 4 years on finance and very happy with the purchase as it beats even some EcoBoost fiestas for me! 👌🏽
Really enjoying this series of Rachel-Erin-VBH group tests. Great chemistry and a lot of joie de vivre.
So glad to hear you're enjoying them Richard!
What a refreshing change these reviews by Rachael, Erin and Vicki make. I'm researching a car for my millennial daughter and find these reviews just the job.
Wind up windows in a new car? Wow, that's unbelievable! My 'G' reg Rover had electric rear windows!
A car with a heated steering wheel has wind up windows, are you serious. A car with a wireless charger and huge screen has wind up windows. I love that screen so big, when I hear wind up windows, Are you serious.
Indeed. Who on the planet thinks heated steering wheel is a clincher.
Couldn't they just have Vicki to do the reviews the others are redundant
why the 125bhp fiesta and the only 95bhp ibiza when there is the 115bhp version? not fair.... and the ibiza is much roomier than the fiesta... another league as you use to say.... and the trunk too! strange evaluation....
Hi Michele. We totally take your point on this. Basically it was which car we could get our hands on for the reviews, and in some cases that was different between the three. Of course we know which engines/powers/models you can buy across the range, and what we had on the day didn't affect our assessment of each car. i.e. a car wouldn't come second because it had 10 fewer horsepower than another one. Hope that makes sense.
The Ibiza looks the best, has more space, best interior (fiesta with stuck on iPad is ugly) it would have to drive like a Ferrari to beat the Ibiza, I've driven the fiesta and it's not as engaging as you make out! Not to win this test
they could have chose the 140ps model fiesta but they didn't
Aiden McKinnon but there is also a 150 HP variant of the Ibiza as well
@@30isurfer Next year you will have 155 hp Fiesta ST line as well
ford fiesta is the segment leader.
truly phenomenal in every aspects.
You can also get a better Ibiza with a different engine tune producing 113 BHP and hitting 62 MPH in 9.6 seconds, a 6 speed transmission and disc brakes on all four wheels instead of drum brakes on the back wheels. The FR trim used in this video includes sport suspension and low profile sport tires which make the handling more nimble and responsive in return for sacrificing some comfort. If you ask me then the Ibiza wins by miles.
The Ibiza FR even comes in a 1.5 TSI version with 150bhp. I got one ;) Ofcourse they say the engine is a "Fizzy turbocharged engine", when they go for the weakest and cheapest they could find. :D
@@mathiasclement8679 yeah, unfortunately the 1.5 isn't available in the UK where I live so I got the 115PS 1.0 instead
1:55 ... I was expecting a handbrake turn into those parking spaces - Tiff Needell and Jason Plato style...!!! :)
Good review ladies
This is a much better form of review not gonna lie
Thank's ladies for your superb comparisons. In german TV, they compare only cars from the VAG concern together with a Dacia or a Fiat, to look better. Accept the price.
Fiesta foresure. Great little engine as well
Very nice i would pick the suzuki's swift for occasional drives..
Love these ladies. Well done.
I ❤️ Vicki
Seat Ibiza is so damn sexy.
But Fiesta best driving
"Fiesta the highest selling car in the UK" Says a lot about people from the UK doesn't it 😂
How is it a bad thing
thanks for the fiesta
I have the been enjoying the Auto Trader REV Tests featuring different types of Cars
Thanks so much Jamie!
electric windows in the front are a definite must, but i really cant be bothered if the rear has wind up windows. the only thing that is good for is to make sure the kids dont lower them when you dont want them to
that's why I always put my kids in the boot.
Top gear
Fifth gear
Now
Here
😍Viki
Comparison..1. Most fuel efficent car...Ibiza 2. More bootspace...Ibiza 3. More volume and legroom...Ibiza 4. Best accelarition and top speed...Ibiza 5. Best looking...Ibiza FR So...
No-one uses that Fiesta screen do they? I plug my phone in and use the vastly superior Android Auto which is shiny as you like and routes everything my phone does into the screen / dashboard & steering wheel controls
Mazda 2 1.5 SkyActive Please.
Most informative review thanks
Thanks for watching Robert!!
I was just re-watching the old Top Gear video where Vicky drives the Lamborghini Diablo GT, then this pops up in my subscriptions. The difference nearly 20 years makes...
I tend to agree with most people's opinions the ibiza is the best all round package motoring journalists get far too carried away by how a car goes around corners the fiesta is just not practical unless you're a jonnie no mates interior build quality is also up too fords usual poor standard the corsa looks a bit dated for long distance travelling the ibiza will be far better to live with these reviews are very short and not very thorough .
By the look of those buildings in the background I would've guessed we're in Russia. ahaha
Seat ibiza is the best:-)
Are you crazy? Noisy 3 cilinder Ibiza.... Like brrrrrrrrrrrrrrbrrrrrrrrrr i tested blaaaaa
I like all of the cars
I've been driving a 6 gear version of the Ibiza FR.
Ibiza is the best out the 3 interior best vw engine best looking iv drove one id say not very engaging to drive but very nice to drive I have a fabia monte carlo 1.2 tsi dsg and I love it its powerful fun on country lanes nd the interior is nice as well
corsa been out since beginning 2015, of course it's not going to be as good as newly released fiesta and seat. But I'll take the seat looks better than them both
100% agree with the ranking, close between ford and seat but the ford is slightly better and the crosa is a vauxhall which says it all really
Mazda2 will be your choice if you like the speed and sport style
Did a test drive in a mazda 2 And fiesta,. Mazda 2 steering was to light on the highway
Vauxhall for me
Nice video and wow in love with this 3 ladies.
Ibiza !
Great report ladies. .
Is it just me that prefers the Fiesta trend to the titanium?
"I like the colour of this one"
My money (albeit probably more of it than these 3 cost) would go on the VW Polo
Ecoboost engine wins easy vs any other brand, ford has been trimming this engines since 2011, and the competition just rushed to make 3 cylinder cars 2 years ago.
Ecoboost with its cast iron engine and aluminium head, special designed engine exaust ports above the valves reduces de turbo lag to none. Thumps up for the Continental turbos made only for ecoboost, but VW, signed with them last year, making them the 2nd brand to use one of the best designed turbos for small engines. But the timing belt system on ecoboost is far superior to the competition rubber belt inside the engine semi dipped in oil absorbs the vibrations, the crank shaft doesn't have any counter weights and the poly and fly wheel are unbalanced on purpose to counter the engine. Kia,VW group,hyundai, Fiat, either use counter weights on the crank shaft, some use a chain as a timing belt removing the need of maintenance on it but increasing the noise and the effort of the engine making it less fuel efficient.
What about all the ecoboost engine failures? And yes this is an issue with these engines. Read Facebook ecoboom before you buy one.
Ibiza..
Why the big deal about wind down windows? Are we really that lazy that it's a chore? I want to see them reintroduced to the front too.... saves weight and cost.
Would be pretty annoying when getting your parking ticket, the beauty of one touch, is that you can grab your ticket, bliip the button and drive off.
Are you saying that the answer to my second question is "yes"....?
Huh? I think you're confused, here in the UK at least, you grab your parking ticket before you enter the multistory carpark.
Sorry buddy I misread your comment. Changed my reply. I'm from the UK too.
I still don't understand this UK reviewer Fiesta drivability thing, it's the same in all UK reviews, that Fiesta is the most fun supermini to drive. I've driven this, and the Ibiza, and the Fiesta couldn't hold a candle to the Ibiza, which was immense fun to drive. The previous Fiesta got similar praises from UK reviewers, and in my experience with it, it drove terribly.
I like the way you do reviews but why did the lady with the longest hair sound like she was almost afraid to speak.
Still way better than most other who just either read the spec sheet or just shout
Loved the parking demo, but perhaps we could have a old top gear style argument or something funny... Just some more humour
Kia Rio with 7year warranty.
I did not get why is Fiesta no1. Ibiza is biger, has beter infoteyment sistem, and if you take proper engine , plenty fast. You are byest.
I test drove a Fiesta Titanium yesterday and it wasn't that good. The interior design is a mess, the touch screen is mostly white and therefore distracting and looks like an afterthought. The engine was gutless and vibrated and the exterior styling was awkward. It steered well but no better than my current car. I have decided to buy an Ibiza FR 115. Got a good discount via CarWow.
Ibiza clearly is the better car
Форд Фиеста лучший автомобиль!!!
Ibiza nice auto.. EuroNcap 5
I don't get this. We have an 17 Ibiza and got a 18 Fiesta as a courtesy car.....it was awful. Infotainment shocking. Steering vague. Brakes spongy and the seat fabric was scratchy. So happy to get the Ibiza back. I wouldnt have a fiesta. And spec for spec the fiesta is 2k more expensive than the Ibiza. The fiesta is a slightly smoother, quieter drive but that's the only advantage I could find.
well I would chose the corsa 3d
its by far cheapest and I think a better looking car.. on the other hand Ibiza is nice but I would be afraid its reliability..
fiesta is cool but 2018 model does not look that good for me
Nothing says Orwellian like wind up windows.
Wind up windows on a brand new car.. *shudders*
Still can’t park all three in the lines 🙄🙄
Anyone ever going to do an actual short people car? I cant see for shit in half these.
Corsa EuroNCAP 4 İbiza 5
Where is škoda fabia??
The Michal the ibiza is already here
Suv?
We've got a few SUV videos coming up over the next few weeks Ethan...! Bargain, small, mid-size, and big luxury.
Auto Trader can I know what cars?? 🚗
If we told you that Ethan... we'd have to, erm, well we'd get told off. So you'll just have to keep watching : ).
Auto Trader 😂😂👍
Suzuki swift or Mazda 2. Not that I'd ever buy a supermini at all
VW UP! GTI is a more interesting small hatchback. ...looks better as well.
John Grytbakk looks better than what exactly?
Than the 3 hatchbacks presented in this video.
The UP! has no design whatsoever, its a rectangle with wheels, cant wait for it to be replaced
John Grytbakk the up is in the class below. Polo competes in this class
Or just get a Skoda Octavia for the same money, which is a better car in every regard.
The fiesta has to be the most boring looking car.
top rubbish is fiests
What?
Ibiza... and forget the rest, besides Fiesta handling.
It's I-BEE-ZUH and not AI-BEE -THA.
Purple Haze actually it is I bee tha,
Purple Haze
No it is right as you've written AI BE THA
ASK SOMEONE SPANISH
Absolute disappointment. The title is misleading says "The Rev Test" I never heard an engine rev I was loooking forward to hearing and seeing the lady's rev up the engines. Further disappointment was the videos have Erin Baker sitting in the backseat and not in the drivers seat this is a complete failure who idea was that? Erin Baker should be in the drivers seat hands down on that.
Just stick to cooking,
