Ford Fiesta
It isn’t even shown in showrooms yet, but already the small Fiesta has everyone talking. For now, we’ve managed to try only the 125 horsepower 1.6-litre four-cylinder engine powered version, which performed honourably for the new subcompact car. While its body boasts a very modern look, it seems like the designers had fun designing the dashboard, all the while keeping it user-friendly. A Fiesta hatchback and sedan will appear on the market during 2010.
