Expert Reviews

Expert reviews: 

The 2019 Ford Fiesta can deliver thrills, but it shows its age in too many ways for us to recommend.

Pros
Sharp handling
Thrilling Fiesta ST
Good optional infotainment
Decent fuel economy

Cons
Balky automatic transmission
Cramped back seat
Poor crash-test scores
Light on safety tech
To be discontinued

Ford has said it will stop producing sedans and most of its hatchbacks over the next few years, given the buying public's proclivity for crossovers. That's unfortunate because the 2019 Ford Fiesta is one of the best subcompact cars on the market.

Pros
Sporty handling in turns
Well-appointed interior with advanced technology options
ST model's zesty performance

Cons
Some rivals offer better ride quality and seat comfort
Limited cargo and rear-seat space

The 2019 Buick Encore ranked #3 in Subcompact SUVs. Currently the Buick Encore has a score of 8.2 out of 10 which is based on our evaluation of 37 pieces of research and data elements using various sources.

Pros
Nice interior with lots of standard features
User-friendly infotainment system
Nimble handling

Cons
Underpowered base engine
Higher base price than rivals

By: 
usnews.com

The Encore's available trims have been downsized to the base and Preferred models for 2021. With the exception of adding Dark Moon Blue Metallic and Cinnabar Metallic exterior colors, Buick hasn't made any changes to its smallest SUV.

Pros
Smooth ride,
intuitive infotainment setup,
surprisingly spacious cabin.

Cons
Not as fuel efficient as key rivals,
lacks standard safety tech,
just plain slow.

By:
