Almost 16 years have passed since Ford replaced the slippery escort with the acute-angled Focus and its New Edge design. But at least - the car had a design. Two generations later, the Focus is lost in the mass of compact cars, but its critics have become fewer.
Fortunately, the face of any car has no effect on the qualities of the Focus, which includes the excellently tuned suspension. But Ford was also active with the engines, the Eco Boost engines set standards in the relation between performance and consumption. But the diesel engines developed in cooperation with Peugeot are also considered to be very economical, especially the 1.6 TDCI in the Econetic version.
Also the friends of alternative fuels will find what they are looking for at Ford, the Focus is also available in an LPG version. Ford, on the other hand, has limited body variants compared to its predecessor: There is a four-door version with a notchback, a five-door version with a hatchback and a station wagon.
A real rally rival without all-wheel drive? The Ford Focus RS looks like a World Rally Car. The Focus RS data sheet also reads like the Monte's basics. In 5.9 seconds to 60 and up to 160 mph fast! For comparison: The Focus ST takes almost one second longer and drives 13 mph slower. No wonder: the Focus RS 2009 has 80 HP more power due to tuning.
