Fiesta Awarded Top Safety Rating

17 March 2011
The Ford Fiesta is now the first car in its segment to achieve top crash test ratings in each of the world's largest auto markets that perform safety testing - Europe, the US and China.

Fords global safety engineers combined their efforts to ensure the Fiesta would be capable of meeting the most stringent crash protection requirements in any region of the world. Leveraging Ford of Europe's small car expertise, engineers from Ford of Europe's engineering centres in Cologne, Germany and Dunton, UK, conducted an array of virtual, actual and hydr aulic sled-simulated crash tests to ensure this top safety performance.

Gary Murphy, Arnold Clark Ford franchise manager said, Ford is committed to safety and the small efficient Fiesta certainly can deliver top level safety.

Beneath Fiesta's stylish exterior is a structure crafted from high-strength steels engineered to preserve quality and enhance driver and passenger safety. More than 55 per cent of Fiesta's body structure is made from ultra-high-strength steel, and the extensive use of high-strength, lightweight boron steel helps protect critical occupant safety zones.
