Exterior styling has been tweaked with a more cheerful front grille, and horizontal rear lights replace the old vertical units, but it is still recognisably a Fiesta. Ford’s greatest achievement with the new model is combining excellent handling with a much improved ride — it really irons out the bumps superbly for a supermini. If there is a price to pay, the steering isn’t quite as sharp as in the last model but it’s still very good.
