New Ford Fiesta Vs New Volkswagen Polo
The verdict
Both these superminis push the boundaries of small car design to new heights. VW's Polo is a delightful package – beautifully built, comfortable over long distances and refined at all speeds. It rides exceptionally well and has the sort of grown-up feel that makes it a genuine alternative to a Golf or Passat.
Trouble is, the new Fiesta is an equally fine supermini. Having improved interior space, Ford is now punching at the same weight as its key competitors. It matches its German rival's practicality, performance and build quality but also offers a level of driveability and agility that has recently become a Ford trademark. The Polo is a fine car but, if you're looking at the package as a whole, the Fiesta edges it.
