New Ford Focus Advanced Tech
The new Ford Focus elevates the world's best-selling nameplate with a bolder, more emotive exterior design, a finely crafted, intuitive new interior, a suite of new or improved driver assistance technologies, and major fuel economy improvements.
The new Focus offers a more powerful, yet frugal engine line-up, consisting of the award-winning 1.0 EcoBoost and new 1.5litre EcoBoost petrol engines.
Ford has crafted a more sophisticated and advanced Focus with a redesign to reflect the One Ford global design language.
The new Focus offers fuel efficiency improvements of up to 19 per cent compared with the current model, and a significant reduction in CO2 emissions across the range.
For the first time in South Africa, the Focus is available with the 92kW 1.0litre EcoBoost engine that was named the International Engine of the Year for an unprecedented third successive year in 2014. One in three Focus models in Europe were sold with the 1.0litre EcoBoost engine during the first half of last year, proving just how successful this combination is.
With enhanced handling and steering, the new Focus takes the model's driving dynamics and acclaimed fun-to-drive DNA to a new level. Ford engineers have delivered a more solid, responsive and connected-to-the-road feel by increasing the structural stiffness at the front, revising the suspension geometry, increasing lateral stiffness of "steering-relevant" suspension bushes, and retuning the shock absorbers.
