http://www.autobloggreen.com/2008/07/14/british-motor-show-preview-ford-to-intro-42mpg-fiesta-zetec-s/ I think this is by far the nicest car in that B-class segment. Puts the new Aveo5 to shame. Also 42mpg is in US gallons not imperial gallons. http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.autobloggreen.com/media/2008/07/fiesta_3.jpg http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.autobloggreen.com/media/2008/07/fiesta_opt.jpg http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.autobloggreen.com/media/2008/07/fiesta_2.jpg

The article doesn't state whether it's imperial or US gallons.

If it really gets 42mpg on gasoline then it'll be a winner for sure.

Fiesta is not Festiva FYI, the Festiva was built by Kia and sold by Ford to fill a niche for people who couldnt afford $1.10/gallon gas

I agree with everyone else. Looks great for the kind of car it is and will give the Beat some tough competition.
