Business Week's Best Car of the Year: Ford Fiesta

Yes, it's a Ford. The 2009 Fiesta is the epitome of the kind of cars consumers need now: small, stylish, and fuel-thrifty. In fact, the Fiesta earns up to 65 miles per gallon, thanks to an efficient diesel engine. The catch? It won't make it stateside until 2010, and Ford isn't sure it can make the business case for importing the $25,000 vehicle as is. The carmaker will likely manufacture a gas version for Americans.
