The 2021 Ford Fiesta and Vauxhall Corsa represent two of the best small cars you can buy - which is no doubt why they fight for number one position in the sales charts. With the new Corsa being better than ever, it's got a real chance of taking the fight to Ford's hugely talented Fiesta, not only on price, but also design, space, comfort and driving fun. In this CarGurus UK video, Rebecca Jackson tests both cars to see if Vauxhall has succeeded.

@Pand0rasAct0r_
@Pand0rasAct0r_ 2 года назад
Doesn't really matter though. The fiesta is quicker but since it's a manual the gear shifts are rougher compared to the opels refined automatic gearbox. However, as I said it doesn't matter. The fiesta will still be more fun to drive. Even If you get the 100pk model. Or the 125pk.

@Russell Durrant again no. Because its again widely known that the ford focus and ford fiesta are the best cars to drive in their segment. No other car comes close to handling. Even the most basic version of a fiesta would compete and or beat with the sportiest version of the corsa. And she said it wouldn't be fair. But she really only meant the horsepower. Because every car reviewer would agree that the fiesta would be the better on road experience. Even if it would have the same horse power. And also an automatic. It doesn't matter. Because the chassis and the responsiveness and directness is class leading in the fiesta.
@matth1j
@matth1j 2 года назад
@Russell Durrant the quality of the gear shift as perceived by the passenger might be down to the skill of the driver, but it's the driver who will tell you how easy (and fun) it is to get nice smooth shifts. Some gearboxes are a pleasure to use; many aren't (and the Corsa manual box isn't great according to the reviews). If you've only driven cars with good quality gearboxes then you're lucky :) @hollyhgamer88 automatic doesn't necessarily mean smooth, and it's easy to get smooth shifts with a good manual. If your manual changes are rough then either it's a very bad box, or you're doing it wrong :)

Having driven both , both were 2020 yr cars brand new at the time, both drove nice, fiesta seemed a tad noisier inside, but handled better than the corsa, however being over 6ft tall the fiesta was easier to get in and out of , the corsa was more difficult for me, if I was to buy one it’d be more likely the fiesta on space for driver , and slightly sharper handling, but for a slightly smother ride it’d be corsa , however I think they’re both nice cars, my daily driver is a Mondeo and the wife’s car is an Astra, I guess you compare to what you’re used too as well.

True - I've been looking at leasing.com a lot recently, and the Corsa is usually one of the cheapest cars. Eg. currently £6.8k total cost for 3 years 8k miles for a well equipped Elite Nav Premium. Cheapest Fiesta is a lower spec (and slower) 100 ST-Line 3 door at £8k. But they do go up and down - a few months ago there were some 125 ST-Line X and Active Xs for Corsa money (you need an X for climate, but you also get B&O sound).

I have a new Corsa (sri Premium with the 100bhp engine) and I used a Fiesta ST Line as a courtesy car when my Corsa was getting repaired (some old woman pulled out of a road straight in front of me). My personal opinion was that the Corsa is a much better car to drive. Before getting the Corsa I was deciding between that and a Fiesta and I'm glad I went with the Corsa.

On the Corsa’s climate control adjustment, just use the auto function. In 15 years of owning various brands of cars with climate control or dual control. I’ve generally not once used anything other than the Auto function…. If it’s a good system then out side of adjusting the temperature a few degrees here or there on hotter or colder days there’s no need to interfere with the Auto function in any way…. Even on an electric car, just use the app to preheat or pre cool the car and again just use the Auto function

If I had to choose out of the three, then the Sandero without the Stepway. It manages to beat the Corsa and Fiesta for practicality in terms of boot space and rear seat space. It may not be as fun to drive as either of them and it may be a very basic small car but it also looks better than the other 2 from the outside.

At last! - Rebecca gets to review some cars, not the usual interminably boring string of SUV's - and she does her usual excellent job - best car reviewer on the net. I owned the previous versions of both the Fiesta and Corsa, and Rebecca is spot on - they are both very good, but the big difference is in the steering - the Corsa's is far too light - the Fiesta's is spot-on. It's a shame, it spoils the Corsa on the open road. I've got an Ibiza now - better than you might think, but not as good as the Fiesta.

My missus has a 2018 Fiesta Ecoboost Auto, and I agree the Fiesta is great to drive, a proper drivers car, and I agree it's small for over 6ft, I'm only 6.1 but I cannot get in if I'm wearing a coat and without it's a snug fit but much better once in, the width legroom for the driver isn't so great where your left knee gets a jabbing from the center console but otherwise the driving position is comfy, and if you're tall that center armrest is pointless. An annoying complaint that I hope they haven't continued in the latest cars is the mobile phone resting place being so small in the console, even a Galaxy S7 only just squeezes in there without any case on, and there's a symbol showing charging place but there isn't one as it's just a rubber mat. As for the Hybrid part I would steer clear, it's just a poor gimmick because Ford are being stubborn about making them full EV.

Echoing Iffit, hardly a valid comparison on the ‘road’ element, given the differences in specification, horsepower, suspension tune, etc. And a little specious to discount these when they’ve already contributed to the overall impression. Why didn’t you use the sportier Corsa SRI 130, which matches performance of the ST 155 (and exceeds the directly comparable ST 125) or alternatively, the equivalent Fiesta Titanium X 100?

Hi ! Thanks for the review Rebecca ! Always a pleasure to have your thoughts (especially on car dynamics). :D Judging by your reactions, the Fiesta is very enjoyable to drive (without putting my licence in danger). I hope you'll make a video about the Fiesta ST soon. When I tried a Fiesta (ST-Line), I didn't like the 1.0 Ecoboost : I found it rough and it didn't seemed keen to rev past 5500rpm. However, the rest of the car is good : the ergonomics are spot on (driving position, seats, pedal and gear lever placement), visibility is good, materials are good, especially on the touch points (steering wheel, gearknob, handbrake), the Full LED headlights are excellent (bright with a very good range) and the chassis is great (great grip, playful within the speed limits, yet predictable and comfortable enough for me). I must try a Fiesta ST (The 1.5 Ecoboost felt good in a Focus, so in a Fiesta, it must be great). Keep doing what you're doing. P.S. : Thanks to the Cargurus channel, good work. :)

I’ve had the corsa over a year now, a lot of small faults with it, stop/start does not work, can’t turn the radio off, a/c on every time you start the car, dashboard lights resemble flashing Christmas tree lights, dimming/flashing all day long. Vauxhall are not interested in fixing anything.

It's all that modern namby pamby safety equipment that means cars are heavier than they used to be :) And they tend to be bigger as well. I learned to drive (circa 1981) in my mum's mk1 Fiesta 1.1. Don't know the power output, it wasn't much (probably around 60 like you said), but it seemed to go pretty well. Even my girlfriend's 957cc Fiesta a few years later was fine on the motorway.

@@keithjones9054 agreeable to some extent that Ford do sell better than Vauxhall but there’s more to it than just chip shortages. When it comes to the Fiesta & Focus, they are 2 of the least practical cars in their segment, a Skoda Fabia is more practical than both of them. Yes prioritising crossovers is the thing now since the Puma is based on the Fiesta and the Kuga being based on the Focus hence the fact cars like the Puma are more attractive and still decent enough value for money but even so SUVs are not even all that. Puma just looks like a Fiesta in shoe lifts.

I recently bought a 10 year old Fiesta and Iove it. For a cheap car it’s so much fun to drive, especially threading it though country b-roads with that wonderfully sharp steering.
