Ford deals<\/a> have become even more fuel efficient, meaning you could save money despite the fuel hike.<\/p>\n The car manufacturer will put smiles on a few faces after announcing that the new Ford Fiesta could run at over 85mpg.<\/p>\n
Now on sale, the Ford Fiesta ECOnetic model has a diesel fuel economy of 85.6mpg and boasts emissions of just 87g CO2\/km.<\/p>\n
This means that motorists can avoid paying out for road tax and the London Congestion Charge.<\/p>\n
The new fuel efficiencies are a significant improvement just on the last six years. In 2006 the Ford Fiesta was capable of only 65.1mpg.<\/p>\n
But even that was better than the Focus and Mondeo, which achieved fuel economy of 51.4mpg and 44.1mpg respectively.<\/p>\n
New Mondeos are capable of turning over 65.6mpg now, while the Focus ECOnetic offers 83.1mpg – a marked improvement.<\/p>\n
"We cannot influence how the cost of motoring changes as a result of [the] Budget, but we will continue to design, develop and market innovative vehicles that minimise the cost of motoring for today's families," pledged Mark Ovenden, Ford Britain managing director.<\/p>\n
"Our cars are fun to drive, stylish and packed with technology, while returning up to 20mpg more than just a few years ago."<\/p>\n
The petrol Ford Focus 1.0-litre EcoBoost engine is now capable of 58.9mpg too, unsurprisingly less fuel efficient than the diesel models but still economical for a petrol car.<\/p>\n
Ford is undergoing a successful period. As well as unveiling eco-friendly engines, the Ford Fiesta and Ford Mondeo have both recently won awards.<\/p>\n
At the 2012 CarBuyer Car of the Year awards, the Fiesta was named Best Small Car, while the bigger Mondeo was applauded as Best Large Family Car 2012.<\/p>\n
