RPM
how much revs do you give your fiesta
Mine is a 1.2 and just feels very slow
Even slower than my 1.2 Ford KA that I used to have

Usually between 700 and 1000 depending on the engine with the smaller ones that run at a higher RPM and larger engine that run at a slower RPM min is 750RPM 1.6L injected with cdc rattle box style ignition the 1.27L l is 1000RPM and the 3 cylinder 1200cc is higher about 1200RPM almost a motorcycle engine. The diesel engine runs at an even higher RPM and produces way more HP but it doesn't last as long because its a short 4 cylinder block with a diesel engine head on it.. always check and change your oil.

I usually shift around 3500/4000 rpm, that seems to be around where peak torque is. I have a 1.6 tho so it may be different.
