The Beautifully arranged New Focus - Coming soon to Lifestyle Ford



Beautiful and dynamic design is at the heart of the new Ford Focus, and using Ford’s kinetic Design philosophy, every element has been carefully crafted. The new Focus is available in a range of body styles - chose from the 3-door or 5-door hatch, 4-door saloon or 5-door estate. Meanwhile, the top of the range Focus ST takes performance to an extra level, with its unique sports bodystyling and powerful brakes - not to mention the stunning 18-inch alloy wheels.

Kinetic Design - energy in motion

Ford’s kinetic Design direction is bold and modern. After the highly successful launch of the new Mondeo and the introduction of the S-MAX, the designers at Ford were eager to apply their kinetic Design philosophy to the Focus – a car that’s known for its great driving dynamics. Every body panel on the Focus, except for the roof, has been restyled. This dramatic makeover embraces the kinetic Design principals of energy in motion, giving the car an athletic, dynamic feel to match its agile drive.

Interior design

The interior of the Focus has been enhanced to offer greater versatility and luxurious comfort. The newly designed centre console takes on the flowing look of kinetic Design. And the new instrument panel illuminates with a red glow, providing better legibility. Special attention has been devoted to the quality of the interior, with the inclusion of a number of premium finishes.

Feature rich

The new Ford Focus is not shy on new features and optional extras. EasyFuel capless refuelling prevents fuelling mistakes. The tyre pressure warning system can give advanced warning of tyre problems. The 230 Volt power socket can be used to power electrical appliances. The new Sony entertainment system has a DAB radio* and MP3 player connectivity. And the optional LED rear lights give a unique visual effect. ESP (Electronic Stability Programme) is now standard across all new Focus models.

The Ford PowerShift Transmission

The Ford PowerShift Transmission is a six-speed double-clutch transmission system with the ease of operation of an automatic transmission, and it is completely new to Ford. When combined with the 2.0 litre Duratorq TDCi engine, the result is an approximate 10% improvement in fuel consumption and lower CO2 emission when compared with a conventional six-speed transmission.

The new Ford Focus ECOnetic

The Ford Focus ECOnetic will be the first in Ford’s new range of low CO2 vehicles. This stylish new Ford derivative emits just 115g/km of CO2 – that’s a class leading result in this segment. The Ford Focus ECOnetic shows that very favourable fuel consumption levels and significantly reduced CO2 emissions can be achieved using clever fuel-saving measures including a new low resistance transmission oil specially developed for Ford by BP. Powered by a 109 PS (80 kW) 1.6-litre Duratorq TDCi with standard Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF), average consumption for this vehicle is a low 4.3 litres per 100 km.

*Optional DAB radio is not available at launch
