Ford Ranger wins international award

Ford also picked up a second gong, with the all-new Transit Custom taking out the International Van of the Year award.

All the judges involved rated the Ranger as the best nominee and were  particularly impressed by the Ranger's safety, towing ability,  performance on and off-road and its engine line-up.

The Ranger finished in front of the Isuzu D-Max and Volkswagen Amarok.

"The Ford Ranger is a great all-rounder, combining the perfect blend of  on-road comfort and stability with off-road capability," said Irish  judge, Jarlath Sweeney.
