Performance and Efficiency

Technologies that enhance our overall enjoyment behind the wheel are a key part of every drive, but a vehicle’s performance is at the heart of the entire experience. After all, we purchase cars to take us where we need to go, and we expect swift acceleration, precise handling and optimum efficiency.

Ford has a reputation for producing vehicles that are fun to drive, and their strong performance is complimented by technology that helps to reduce emissions and improve fuel economy. From the award-winning EcoBoost engine to AdBlue technology, Ford has precision engineered all its vehicles’ moving parts to ensure you can take to the road without unduly impacting the environment. The recent focus on the electrification of vehicles has seen the manufacturer add hybrid and electric cars to its line-up, as well as introducing Mild Hybrid technology to many of its petrol models, with the aim of further reducing emissions.

A host of features are available so that you also  enjoy a cleaner drive. With systems such as Auto-Start-Stop cutting the engine when you’re idling, and Ford EcoMode, which helps you to save fuel by adapting your driving habits, it’s easier than ever to reduce your carbon footprint while enjoying the same exceptional performance you’d expect from this renowned brand.
