At present, only prestige brands Audi and BMW, as well as VW’s Passat, which is due for imminent replacement, are able to offer upper medium models in diesel’s lowest benefit-in-kind tax band of 13%, but Ford will join that group when the 1.6-litre 115hp diesel arrives in the UK early next year.
Although figures haven’t been revealed, a Ford spokesperson said that 110-120g/km is the target. It won’t be badged Econetic, with Ford electing not to use its green branding on larger cars. It will, though, feature start-stop, an aerodynamic grille and regenerative braking to increase efficiency.
