In the United States, a few of those cars have MSRPs well over a Mustang Ecoboost 6-speed Premium, which has a very large trunk and even airconditioned seats. That Mustang would not only out-handle the front heavy FWD cars thanks to being able to balance turning and acceleration traction better, while having wider tires for more lateral grip, and close to a 50/50 weight distribution, with superior aerodynamics, but its 14.1 quarter mile would have been best of the bunch, and best at the roll on test as well. And at 32mpg for the ecoboost Mustang, it is identical to say the GTI. Brits need to recognize that performance oriented FWD vehicles are not necessarily more economical to buy or operate than a proper RWD pony car, and their only real advantage is that their shorter length makes them easier to parallel park. Next time include a V6 Camaro and turbo Mustang in the comparison, and see how attractive that Yaris really is.

With the same driver, the Mini would blow everything away here, and it should, as it's the dearest. At least though it's a regular performance model though, unlike the Yaris's limited edition, which is completely impractical for everyday use. And how slow was the Fiesta's driver off the mark?! Great video though.

The mini is a hoot to drive and see if you can get one with the pro exhaust, what a sound

First time I've really considered wanting a Yaris. Very cool

Definitely the Mini for me! Took one for a test drive once and if I’m honest wasn’t expecting much but was absolutely thrilled after I’d took it for a spin! Would have snapped it right up if I could’ve afforded it! The sounds that came from it too!!! I also like the message displayed when sport mode is activated! 😃 The whole experience of it put a massive smile on my face! Absolutely without a doubt I’d have the Mini out of this list! If you’ve never driven one and have the chance would totally recommend it!!!👌🏻 Cracking piece of kit!

I think if everyone started at the same time the result would have been the same anyway. The Fiesta put in a good show considering how much cheaper it was than the Yaris (£10k ish less!)
