Production has begun of the new Fiesta ECOnetic according to Ford Europe, which is all set to deliver improved efficiency.Touted as the company's most fuel efficient and lowest CO2 emitting passenger car of all time, the Fiesta ECOnetic is powered by a 1.6-liter Duratorq TDCi diesel engine. Power is rated at 95hp, it boasts 161lb-ft of torque, and achieves 86mp and CO2 emissions of 87g/km. The demand for fuel efficient cars is strong and is only going to get stronger.
