Recent college grads occupy a unique position in the car buying community — they often have a new job and enough money to consider a new car. But they can’t afford a fully loaded luxury machine. The challenge is to find a vehicle that balances affordability with comfort and performance.

We recommend the 2017 Ford Fiesta. This compact strikes the affordability/comfort/performance balance brilliantly. Here are a few of the reasons the 2017 Fiesta is a favorite for many recent grads:

Efficiency

All engine options for the 2017 Fiesta offer great efficiency to keep you and your wallet away from gas stations. For the best gas mileage, the 1.0-liter three-cylinder EcoBoost engine can get up to 41 mpg highway. Even the 197-horsepower engine in the performance-focused Fiesta ST can achieve 33 mpg highway.

Convenience

It may not be the largest car, but the Fiesta Hatchback uses the space it has efficiently. Whether you’re moving out of a dorm or into an urban apartment, the Fiesta hatchback has the space you need. Pop the hatch, fold down the seats, throw in your boxes or luggage, and be on your way.

Amenities

Just because it’s a compact doesn’t mean the 2017 Fiesta lacks comfort. Available heated leather seats will keep you comfortable during cold weather. Ford’s new Sync 3 system gives control and access to a variety of features like hands-free calling and navigation. Available audio from Sony will make it seem like you’re sitting in the room with your favorite podcast.

Value

You’ll get a lot of car for the money with a 2017 Fiesta. Both the Fiesta sedan and Fiesta hatchback start at just under $14,000. That’s less than either Honda Fit or Chevrolet Sonic.
