OREANDA-NEWS. December 10, 2015. Ford Fusion was announced as the Best Family Car for 2015 by the team of expert motoring journalists from the Independent Media's Motoring supplement at an awards banquet held in Johannesburg last night.

At the end of each year, the Motoring staff select the 'Best of the Best' in a variety of categories. This year the selection included more than 70 all-new or upgraded vehicles that were launched in South Africa - with three Fords shortlisted as finalists for 2015.

The sophisticated Fusion earned the 'Best Family Car' award against several highly regarded competitors. The judging panel, which comprises some of South Africa's most experienced and respected motoring journalists, commented: "The spacious, well-equipped and attractively styled sedan offers an alternative choice in a segment dominated by German models, and beats them all in the features-for-money stakes.
