Ford Fiesta Scoop Honours At The Auto Express New Car Awards
The Ford Fiesta was declared Britain's Best Supermini for the third consecutive year at the Auto Express New Car Awards. The Ford Fiesta and the Ford Focus have been Britain's number one and two bestsellers every month so far this year.
Graham Hope, Acting Editor, Auto Express said: "Once again, the Fiesta has demonstrated its superiority in the supermini sector. The Ford’s head-turning looks, boldly designed cabin and sparkling chassis have all helped secure a remarkable third consecutive victory in this closely fought category."
Ford Fiesta – Best Supermini
When it first drove out of Ford dealer showrooms in October 2008, the award-winning Ford Fiesta signalled a new era in small car design, performance and functionality. Available in three- and five-door bodystyles and a range of fuel-efficient powertrains, it shot up to the top of the sales charts within four months to become the best-selling car in the UK and Auto Express's Car of the Year 2009 and Best Supermini in 2010.
Anthony Ireson, marketing director, Ford of Britain said: "This is an important award for the Fiesta as it endorses this latest generation for customers looking for great style, driving dynamics and a wide choice of models and engines.
The Fiesta line-up has evolved during its short life to include a 95g/km ECOnetic engine which means that five of the available engines today emit less than 130g/km of CO2 and are thereby exempt from vehicle excise duty in their first year."
Three quarters of Fiesta buyers opt for the mid and high series with five-door petrol engines being the most popular. The most sought after colour is Panther Black and the favourite option is voice control, Bluetooth and USB.
