Fiesta Nears Top on Back-to-School List


Kelley Blue Book's kbb.com announced its Top 10 Back-to-School Cars, and near the top of that list was the 2011 Fiesta. Fiesta came in at #2, but was ranked higher than all other new vehicles on the list, which combined both new and used cars.

Fiesta earned high marks for its fuel economy of up to 40 highway mpg*, standard stability control, and push-button start, plus a low starting price of around $14,000. In choosing the cars, the kbb.com editors kept key financial criteria in mind, considering all new cars with a value under $18,000.

Kelley Blue Book's kbb.com executive editorial director and executive market analyst, Jack R. Nerad, said new car entries like the Fiesta "offer advanced technological features and forward-looking designs to engage any student, with price points that won't disappoint parents."

Ford also earned a second nod on the list with its 2006 Crown Victoria. The editors cited comfort, interior space and reliability as the key factors for placing the Crown Vic in the Top 10.
