The 2014 Ford Fiesta with an SFE package has the best in class highway miles per gallon and an impressive 34 combined miles per gallon. Over five years, you can save $3,750 in fuel costs compared to the average new vehicle.  The Honda Civic falls short with 32 combined miles per gallon and the Chevy Cruz with only 30 miles per gallon.

As the demand for smaller cars increase, the demand for an improved interior has also increased.  The Ford Fiesta excels in style and design with Leather-trimmed seats and a leather-wrapped steering wheel and available RECARO seats. The Chevrolet Cruze offers more Front Hip and Head Room.  Consumer Guide says the Honda Civic “for tall occupants has no excess headroom, especially beneath the sunroof housing.” 

Technology plays an important role in making a decision on which new car to get. The Chevy Cruze offers Chevrolet MYLink, turn-by-turn navigation, mobile apps, and a Pioneer audio system. The Fiesta comes standard with a rear view camera; reverse sensing system, intelligent access with push-button start, ambient lighting, and Sony Branded audio system. Honda Civic has I-MID: Intelligent Multi-information Display; it uses Bluetooth for your phone and music, and has audible text messaging.

When it comes to safety all three cars receive excellent safety ratings. The Ford Fiesta and Chevy Cruze were named a top safety pick for both 2013 and 2014. U.S. News and World Report says the Fiesta “excels where many subcompact cars fall flat with its nimble handling, great fuel economy and an impressive list of optional features.” The 2014 Ford Fiesta was also ranked as the #2 most affordable small car. Overall, it was a close battle but the Ford Fiesta emerged to take the title.
