It took just over two days, but Ford responded to our email, which didn't happen in 2011 or 2012. Otherwise, the firm's offering is much the same as last year's. The homepage is colourful, but the design feels rather basic once you're into the 'fleet' section. The Ford Accident Management App should help take the stress out of a prang, while the whole-life cost calculator and advice guides are all useful content. The experts at Comcar rate the tax calculator as up with the best.

As last year, Honda's website is great in just about every way except for the tax calculator. What it does it does well, but it's just too basic compared with those on the Peugeot or Vauxhall sites. On the other hand, finding the P11D of any given model could hardly be easier, and the BIK percentages and monthly tax bills are also given. We had a response to our email within a day, the dealer finder lets you search for corporate specialists, and the car comparison tool is detailed and flexible.

Last year's most improved website suffers more than most under our upgraded scoring system but this is still a solid showing. The most striking feature is the whole-life cost calculator for fleet managers, which works out the cost of running a fleet of Hyundais. It's a sophisticated tool, unlike the BIK tax calculator, which is quite basic. The mobile site is one of few that has a fleet section and it includes the car chooser tool from the main website. Our email query had a reply within one working day.

Kia's is certainly one of the better looking websites, although the white background of the latest site makes it feel more sober and grown-up than before. There are some useful features, including a shortlist tool that pins down suitable models based on variables such as the P11D price, BIK banding and fuel economy. What's more, the tax calculator is downright brilliant. However, a business-friendly app or two would take Kia closer to the front runners.
