Ford Fiesta is one of the 10 Best Back-to-School Cars of 2016, according to Kelley Blue Book’s KBB.com. This is the second year in a row Kelley Blue Book has named Fiesta to the list.
The
uniquely designed Ford Fiesta is one of America’s most popular small
cars, offering customers a safe, fun, dynamic experience with nimble
handling and a comfortable ride – all at an appealing value.
As
another school semester kicks off, KBB.com’s expert editors handpicked a
selection of new cars they recommend for students and parents of teen
drivers.
“Safety
is the paramount decision when it comes to back-to-school cars, and
practicality and affordability are also high on the list of desirable
characteristics, at least according to parents,” said Jack R. Nerad,
executive editorial director and executive market analyst, Kelley Blue
Book’s KBB.com. “The kids involved prefer to have a car they’re happy to
be seen in, which suggests style is part of the equation too. Ford
Fiesta addresses all of these wants, with an array of features returning
students are sure to appreciate.”
Available
in a hatch or sedan bodystyle, Fiesta helps to keep you and your
occupants protected with seven total airbags including dual-stage front
airbags, driver’s knee airbag, and side-curtain airbags for the first
and second-row occupants*. It also offers the latest in driver-assist
technology, with standard integrated blind spot mirrors to help reduce
rear-vision blind spots and AdvanceTrac® electronic stability
control that can automatically detect wheel slippage, adjusting torque
and braking to maintain control and traction.
Ford’s popular small car offers a wide range of choice, from the available 1.0-liter EcoBoost® engine that’s powerful and efficient, to the sporty 1.6-liter EcoBoost in Fiesta ST. Available SYNC®
3 – Ford’s latest communications and entertainment system – offers
enhanced voice recognition, ultimate music streaming control and SYNC
AppLink™, which enables customers to control some mobile apps while driving.

delivery, taxes, title and license fees are extra), in accordance with
KBB.com’s considerations for inclusion and the Kelley Blue Book® Fair Purchase Price.
