A VAN version of the latest Ford Fiesta is now on sale priced from £9,025.
With average fuel economy of 67.3mpg and low insurance groups of 1 and 2, Ford is claiming class-leading figures.
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 Fiesta Van 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 van with 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.
Ford says the addition of the Trend series is to appeal to image-conscious businesses.
