STRAP up and crack on. Ford’s crackerjack 200PS Fiesta ST will deliver bundles of fun from £19k.

It’s a great car for company car drivers who value a bit of fun on the business.

The Fiesta ST starts from £18,995 in ST-1 trim, which features selectable drive modes – new to ST – as well as a flat-bottomed steering wheel, Recaro seats and ST sports suspension as standard.

All Ford Fiesta ST models are also equipped as standard with:

  • electric, heated door mirrors,
  • Ford’s SYNC3 DAB radio with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto capability,
  • cruise control,
  • and NCAP Pack, which includes Lane-Keeping Alert and speed limiter.

If you want to add a bit more kit to your hot hatch Fiesta fun, then the ST-2 starts from £19,995 in three-door guise and £20,645 for the five-door.

Fiesta ST-2 adds climate control, heated Recaro front seats and blue seatbelts, B&O PLAY premium sound system and Ford SYNC3 DAB radio with a larger eight-inch touchscreen as standard.

Top of the range ST-3 gains 18in alloy wheels and red brake calipers (£350 and £75 options on ST-2 models), satellite navigation, automatic rain-sensing wipers, auto-dimming rear view mirror and driver assistance features including Traffic Sign Recognition, auto high beam and driver alert.

The three-door ST-3 is priced from £21,495 while the five-door model starts from £22,145.

New Performance Pack

The new Ford Fiesta ST is available with a new Performance Pack.

The Performance Pack includes a Quaife limited slip differential, launch control and performance shift lights. The Performance Pack is an £850 optional extra for ST-2 and ST-3 trims.

All Fiesta ST models are also fitted with specially-developed Michelin Pilot Super Sport tyres, available for both 17in and 18in alloy wheels.

Other optional extras include full LED headlamps (£600), available on ST-2 and ST-3 models, and Blind Spot Information System (BLIS) with Cross Traffic Alert (£475), available across the Fiesta ST range.

The Ford Fiesta ST is powered by an all-new, three-cylinder, 1.5-litre EcoBoost engine, which accelerates to 62mph in 6.5sec.

New cylinder deactivation technology – a world first for a three cylinder – further improves fuel efficiency by automatically stopping fuel delivery and valve operation for one of the cylinders, helping new Fiesta ST to return a combined fuel economy of 47.1mpg, and CO2 emissions of 136g/km. This technology can disengage and re-engage 20 times faster than the blink of an eye, delivering full performance of 200PS and 290nm of torque, on demand.

This puts the Ford Fiesta ST in the 28% company car tax band.

Fiesta ST will be the first to feature selectable Drive Modes – enabling engine, steering and stability controls to be configured to Normal, Sport and Track settings for an optimised fun-to-drive experience in all driving conditions.

Drive Modes will also adjust the Fiesta ST’s Electronic Sound Enhancement (ESE) technology and active exhaust noise control valve, which amplifies the sound of the engine note.

Fiesta ST will be available in Race Red, Frozen White, Magnetic, Moondust Silver, Shadow Black, Silver Fox, new to Fiesta ST, and Performance Blue – a colour unique to ST models.
