The new Ford Fiesta Van is now on sale from £9,025.
Frugal fuel
economy of up to 67.3mpg, insurance groups of 1E and 2E and a choice of
engines and trim levels make it a class-leading package.Steve Kimber, Ford of
Britain's commercial vehicles director, said, "Fiesta Van is a main player
in the car-derived van market with around 25 per cent of all sales. We expect
to build on this, as more and more of today's businesses look to keep their
costs under control. "The van model was
an integral part of the new Fiesta product plan and its superior quality really
shows. Being competitive has never been more relevant and that's why Fiesta
Van, with the range-topping SportVan, is a great addition to our 2009
line-up." The fuel efficiency of
the Fiesta Van is best in class: the petrol engine has combined fuel
consumption of 49.6mpg and CO2 emissions of 133g/km. Both diesel
engines have a combined fuel consumption of 67.3mpg* and CO2
emissions of just 110g/km.
It is
available in three versions: Fiesta Van, the new "Trend" and
"SportVan" with prices starting at £9,025 for the 1.25
Duratec 82PS petrol to £10,780 for the SportVan 1.6 TDCi 90PS with coated
diesel particulate filter (cDPF). The addition of the Trend series is set
to appeal to a wider group of customers. It is ideal for image-conscious
businesses who may be delivering small packages, transporting compact equipment
such as meter reading tools or for the site engineer who does not need a large
capacity for tools.
The new Fiesta Van is
available with a choice of engines: 1.25-litre 82PS Duratec 16 valve petrol
unit and a frugal 1.4-litre 68PS Duratorq TDCi turbo diesel. The

Fiesta SportVan. The closed-loop coated cDPF is optional on the 1.6-litre 90PS
Duratorq TDCi turbo diesel on all series. A payload range from
490kg to 515kg gives customers a competitive option for transporting their
products.
