Ford bagged two titles at the recent Fleet News awards with its MPV’s proving popular once again.
The Ford C-Max scooped the first award in the ‘New Company Car of the Year’ category while its larger sibling, the Grand C-Max, claimed the ‘Best People Carrier’ prize at the ceremony in London.

The C-Max – a five seat MPV – was decided on by the readers of Fleet News with the models practicality and drive proving decisive in its achievement.
