TCC’s Bottom Line

The 2017 Fiesta drops pro handling moves in ST trim, and 3-cylinders excel at sipping fuel--but all Fiestas have very tight interiors.

The 2017 Honda Fit gives up some fun-to-drive spunk for unparalleled interior space and flexibility.

TCC Likes

Crisp, nicely proportioned exterior
Excellent steering
Strong feature set on Titanium

Exceptionally versatile interior
Great fuel economy
Well-equipped, even in base trim

TCC Dislikes

Very tight back seats
Balky dual-clutch transmission
Base audio controls are cluttered

Front seats aren't the most comfortable
Busy interior trim
Not as fun to drive as before
