Ford has won two BBC Top Gear awards this year for two extraordinary cars. The first, the Ford Fiesta ECOnetic, is Ford’s lowest CO2 emitting model, producing only 98g/km, snapping up the “Green Car of the Year” Award. Of course, that’s not the only reason that it took the prize. It’s a nimble, attractive piece of automotive engineering that a world away from something like the grotesque G-Wiz.
The other winner was Ford’s newest hot hatch, the simply staggering Ford Focus RS. I can tell you right now that “Muscle Car of the Year” prize is thoroughly deserved, as it packs a huge punch under the bonnet. It’s a hugely fun car that is capable every day too, making even a simple run to the shops put a smile on your face.
Well done to everyone at Ford.
