“Fiesta simply outpaced VW Golf, with its move to pole position particularly due to its strong March sales in the UK (+14.7%) and Italy (+87%) where 57% of all Fiestas sold (11,251) were LPG-powered,” said JATO Dynamics.<\/p>\n

“We’re very proud of the latest-generation Ford Fiesta, and our customers love it,” said ngvar Sviggum, Ford of Europe’s Vice President for Marketing, Sales and Service. “Since it first went on sale 18 months ago, over 750,000 have been sold to customers around the world – this would be an outstanding achievement any time, but even more so given the unprecedented economic situation. And with the launch now underway in North America, I believe the Fiesta will continue to go from strength-to-strength.”<\/p>\n
