Ford is expanding their British line up with a brand new Fiesta Van range. The new eco-friendly van will be fuel efficient and it will be priced at £11,635. The engine for the Fiesta Van ECOnetic will be a 1.6-litre TDCi unit with a diesel particulate filter and other upgrades over the standard model.

Expect a lowered suspension, new rear wheel air deflectors, 14-inch wheels and a new six-spoke set of aerodynamic covers. There will be a green shift-indicator light, a modified engine calibration and a higher set of gear ratios.

Ford’s van will return 3.7-litres per 100km of diesel with CO2 emissions set at 98g/km.

“The new Fiesta Van has already seen good sales success. Adding the new ECOnetic to the line-up will build on this,” said Steve Kimber, commercial vehicles director, Ford of Britain. “Overall, I expect we will sell around 2,500 Fiesta Vans a year, aiming to take around 25 per cent of the car-derived market.” he added.
