Consumers who take up Ford Fiesta deals<\/a> have the chance to take part in a new training programme designed to improve their fuel efficiency.<\/p>\n

Ford has teamed up with AA DriveTech to launch the Econo Driver Training course for Ford<\/a> owners who have participated in the Econo Check programme.<\/p>\n

Based around a 35-point vehicle inspection, the service involves the installation of a small data logger which monitors a person’s driving style and fuel economy over the course of a week.<\/p>\n

A personalised report is then created using the data and highlights possible improvements, including speed, anticipation, braking and gear change.<\/p>\n

Andy Barratt, director of Ford’s customer service division in the UK, praised the scheme, saying: “It’s a great opportunity to save money, as well as to reduce your impact on the environment.”<\/p>\n

Ford recently revealed that it has tested its next-generation Ford Focus in some of the most extreme locations on the planet, including frozen Arctic lakes and deserts, as part of reliability checks.<\/p>\n
