Driving characteristics

Fiesta has always been delightfully responsive. Now with its stiffer body structure and improved aerodynamics, you’ll enjoy the perfect combination of sporty, dynamic handling with an altogether more sophisticated driving experience. Whether you’re breezing through busy streets, or sweeping effortlessly along winding roads, as a driver you’ll feel at one with the car as it gives you dynamic feedback from the road, whatever the conditions.

Electric Power-Assisted Steering (EPAS)

To go with the lightness of touch in design, EPAS offers lighter steering when parking or manoeuvring at slow speeds. This advanced system also gives you firmer steering for more control at higher speeds. Unlike conventional power-assisted steering that operates continuously and consumes energy and fuel, our EPAS only operates when it is required, enhancing fuel economy and making the car lighter on your pocket, too.

Anti-lock braking system (ABS)

Fitted as standard on all models, ABS stops the brakes from locking the wheels. This helps prevent skidding if you have to brake when cornering or need to make an emergency stop. For further stability when braking, this system comes with electronic brake-force distribution (EBD).

Emergency Brake Assist (EBA)

EBA ensures full braking force is available whenever necessary, helping reduce stopping distances in an emergency. And, should you need to brake heavily, the hazard warning lights automatically come on to alert other drivers.
