A nimble compact made for city streets
Drive a Fiesta
The Fiesta is a compact five-seat car with sedan and hatchback options and up to 35 mpg on the highway (37 with the automatic). It's a smart, thrifty pick when you're comparing Ford rental options for a city trip.
On Turo, you book your Fiesta from a local vehicle owner, and pickup and delivery options vary by listing. The 2019 model year was the Fiesta's final year in the US, so every one you'll find is a modern classic.

Efficient, lively four-cylinder power
The Fiesta runs on a 1.6L four-cylinder that makes 120 hp and 112 lb-ft of torque — plenty for city traffic and highway merges. A five-speed manual comes standard, and a six-speed automatic is optional. You'll get 27 city and 35 highway mpg with the manual, or 27 city and 37 highway mpg with the automatic.
Compact size, flexible cargo
Yes, the Fiesta is a small car — it's a subcompact, and that's exactly the point. The sedan measures 173.6 inches long, so tight parallel spots and crowded parking garages feel far less stressful.
Small doesn't mean cramped, though. You get seating for five, and the sedan's trunk holds 12.8 cubic feet. Need more room for bags? The hatchback stretches cargo space to 14.9 cubic feet, and its rear opening makes loading bulky items easier. Taking a weekend getaway as a couple or traveling solo with a suitcase? Either body style covers the essentials without the bulk of a bigger car.
Choose your stick or automatic
You can pick the gearbox that suits your driving style. A five-speed manual comes standard on the S, SE, and ST Line trims, so you get that classic, hands-on feel through every gear.
Prefer to let the car do the shifting? The six-speed SelectShift automatic was optional on those same trims. It's also the more efficient choice on the highway — 37 mpg versus 35 with the manual. Either way, every Fiesta is front-wheel drive. Check the listing before you book so you know exactly which transmission you're getting, especially if you've never driven a stick.
Stand out with a Fiesta
The Fiesta shines on city trips, where its small footprint and strong fuel economy keep your plans simple and your spending in check. It's a natural fit for solo travelers, couples, and budget-minded guests who want something stylish and fun without paying for space they won't use. The Turo blog called it a "sensible city car" — one that still brings real personality to your everyday errands and weekend escapes.
Top Fiesta features
The Fiesta ST hot hatch
Three things set the Fiesta apart: the ST hot hatch, its final-generation US status, and your choice of sedan or hatchback.
The Fiesta ST turns a sensible subcompact into a genuine hot hatch. Under the hood, a turbocharged 1.6L four-cylinder makes 197 hp and 202 lb-ft of torque, sent through a six-speed manual.
The hardware backs up the numbers. You get 17-inch wheels, performance tires, and a sport suspension, plus available Recaro sport seats. Brake-assisted torque vectoring helps the ST tuck into turns with more precision than you'd expect from such a small car. If you love driving and want a rental that rewards every on-ramp and winding road, the ST is the Fiesta to find.
A final-generation US classic
Renting a Fiesta puts you behind the wheel of a car you can't buy new in the US anymore. The automaker brought the Fiesta to North America in 2010, and drivers quickly praised it as stylish, fun, and a great value.
The 2019 model year was the Fiesta's last in the US. It was also the brand's last year for any US sedan or hatchback, as it shifted toward crossovers and trucks. That makes every Fiesta a snapshot of an era when small, affordable, fun-to-drive cars filled city streets. Book one on Turo and you'll get a taste of that era with the practicality of a modern compact.
Sedan or hatchback, your call
The Fiesta came in two body styles, and each one suits a slightly different trip. The four-door sedan weighs about 2,578 lbs. Its enclosed trunk holds 12.8 cubic feet — handy when you want your bags out of sight.
The hatchback is a touch lighter at about 2,537 lbs and opens up 14.9 cubic feet behind the rear seats. That extra room and rear opening make it the better choice for groceries, gear, or an awkwardly shaped bag. Both styles seat five, so the right pick comes down to how you pack.

Top tips and things to know before renting a Fiesta
Get to know your Fiesta
The best Fiesta trips start with a quick look at the listing details. Here's what to check before you book.
Confirm the body style and transmission in the listing before you book. Fiesta listings on Turo can include sedans or hatchbacks, manual or automatic gearboxes, and the sporty ST. Those details shape how your trip feels.
Need more power or space than a subcompact offers? A Ford Mustang rental brings more muscle. A Ford Bronco rental gives you an SUV with extra room and capability. And a Ford Explorer rental works well as a midsize SUV for families.
Fiesta driving tips
Check whether your Fiesta has a manual or automatic before you book — it's the biggest difference from one listing to the next. The standard 120 hp engine is efficient but not quick, so give yourself extra room when merging or passing on the highway.
Plan your luggage around the trunk: the sedan holds 12.8 cubic feet, and the hatchback holds 14.9. The Fiesta runs on regular unleaded fuel, so you can fill up at any gas station without paying for premium.
How much does it cost to rent a Fiesta?
Local vehicle owners set their own prices, so the cost of a Fiesta rental varies by year, trim, location, and trip dates. Many listings offer trip-length discounts for three days, one week, two weeks, three weeks, or a full month.
You can also save 10% with a non-refundable discount when you book at least four days ahead. Planning a longer stay? Browse long-term car rental options for monthly trips.

* Any personal insurance you may have that covers damage to the host’s vehicle would kick in before your protection plan, except in limited situations for trips booked in Maryland, but this protects your own wallet.
