Refusing to accept the old standard, Ford designed the Fiesta to partner class-leading value and fuel economy with the kind of style, performance and build quality buyers expect from much pricier cars. In an options list adorned with upscale features such as push button start, heated leather front seats, Easy Fuel™ Capless Fuel Filler and a power moonroof, it may be more appropriate to say that the 2012 Ford Fiesta occupies a segment all its own.
