( www.TFLcar.com ) The 2014 Ford Fiesta and Chevy Sonic Turbo are small economy cars that almost directly compete. Of course the difference is that the Fiesta is normally aspirated while the sonic has a small turbo. How does this effect a cars performance when the road gets steep, the altitude get hight and the car is loaded to the rafters with with people? From Dillion, Colorado to the Eisenhower Tunnel U.S. I-70 climbs 8 miles to a maximum elevation of 11,158 feet or 3,401 meters. That's enough elevation and grade to test a small economy car like the 2014 Ford Fiesta and the Chevy Sonic Turbo.
In Part 1 of another accurate, informative and fun TFLcar mashup review Nathan, Emme, Andre and Roman take on the Ike Gauntlet in the new Chevy Sonic Turbo to see how these small cars handle the steep grade and lack of air density in the Mountains of Colorado.

you know that keeping it at 60 mph will give you the exact same time every time???
@stevehuber6499
@stevehuber6499 9 лет назад
ruizhernandeztrustfi the rule was to try and keep it at 60. the higher you go the more power you lose which means the harder it is to keep it at that speed. So if one was not able to hold the speed they would then be slower than the other.

lcar4000 So, what's your point? The people in the Sonic were not doing the same "Race" to the top where doing over 60mph was not allowed. Damn, these guys are really stupid.

Why did they think the Fiesta couldn't go up a hill at 60mph with four people in it? They do test these things you know. And it's European so well build and well engineered.
@McCollum2009

why no use the 1.0 ecoboost that makes more horsepower and torque than the 1.6

If you drive 2 cars up a hill at 60 mph, wouldn't they get the same time?
@ruizhernandeztrustfi
@ruizhernandeztrustfi 9 лет назад
A deer in headlights Exactly my point. 60mph with 10hp is the same as 60mph with 1000hp
@ProjectM97
@ProjectM97 8 лет назад
+A deer in headlights As an owner of a 100 hp car, it is tough to keep a slow car at 60mph with 4 people in the car while driving up hill. This test is basically a test of torque and gearing to see which car has enough power to maintain 60mph. A 200 hp car would have a very easy time of maintaining 60mph. A 100 hp car, even with cruise control on, will have trouble maintaining 60mph when exposed to other factors such as up hill driving.

Hey TFL car team! great work on your videos. i remember when you guys were around 500 videos, wow you guy have made some serious progress. i love your videos, they are sort of addicting ( i don't know if its supposed to be a good thing or a bad thing). Anyways, i was wondering when are you guys going to put up another video for the Tesla Model s. i am really looking forward for that video.

i love this series such a good idea beccuase this is real world test a lot of people need to know if it has enough guts to get up a steep highway and 2 see if turbos are benefitial it would be cool to take all kinds of cars up there like maybe a prius v loaded with people actuating a road trip love what u guys do keep the good work up!

As someone who has put 72K on his 2011, gone from the entire midwest, to Northern California, I have to admit that the mountains are tough on the little engine, but I am always impressed with how much it has to give and how stable that engine is at high rpm. It was kind of cool to see that they kept the old ti-vct into the new 2014 redesign. For some reason I thought they all had the 1.0 3cyl. On the long haul, driving it every day, and across the country, I don't think there is a better car.

Hey man. The engine in the chevy can be built to handle 450 hp. 10.8 sec 1/4 mile. I have it in a 15 encore im building it up. For 230hp. If it breaks I build another block with better internals and shite to handle the power and I will get closer to 300-325hp

It seems a fair comparison. These are the two main offerings for the two vehicles. It will be interesting to see how the smaller turbo compares with the larger naturally aspirated engine.

I swear, even though technology has advanced to the point where automatics and manuals return nearly the same MPG, there's still something about a manual that seems to allow a car just a little more "power" to the wheels.

@10:16 "You're being passed on the right." That doesn't mean only that you're driving slower than others, it means that you're not practicing "lane discipline" and staying on the right except to pass. It's common practice (required) in Europe/Germany, and much less so in the U.S., but as car enthusiasts/professionals it is recommended (or at least expected that you know about it even if you don't practice it).

Comparing non turbo fiesta with turbo chevy... There are two versions of fiesta ecoboost why was there no ecoboost to match turbo chevy? Because the fiesta turbo ecoboost versions out class chevy by far not just by a little. The 1.0 ecoboost would have left it in the dust, half the engine....
