New Focus is being revealed by ford on 10 April 

(Tuesday next week)

 

 

 

Anyone pre-ordered  one ?

 

 

Pre-ordered?

I'm still waiting to order the Fiesta ST which was announced Feb 2017

oh wow, really ? thats a long time

Tbf, the Focus shouldn't be as long a wait. Probably end of the year beginning of next.

Too bad car manufacturers are too busy looking at what each others cars looks like instead of making a unique and interesting car.

Still looking forward to see what they do with the RS. Shame it takes them 5 years to release it after the rest of the specs and then only make them for 2 years. I could put money on it though that it's going to be some sort of hybrid.

The new focus looks very interesting in that short tempter clip. Must look at what engines ford will put in it.

They should introduce hybrid in my opinion.

 

 

so what ya think ?

Much better!

 

You?

I am liking the new styling

front looks more poised, looks great

I actually quite like it! Couple of niggles here and there (for example, stealing the headlights from Volvo).

Not a fan of the Focus Active though... Wish these companies would stop making small cars into "mini SUVs".

My mum likes the Active as it's better suited for her such as with the raised ride height making it easier for her to get in and out. She doesn't want a full size SUV due to them being too big and the EcoSport she thinks is fugly, will be enquiring about placing an order for one soon as possible.

Don't get me wrong I think that the Active has a place in the market. I just think that these companies should leave the Focus as a Focus, and either create another model or make the "mini SUV" part of a larger model such as the C-Max or Kuga.

And I would agree with her, the EcoSport isn't a looker.

I don't like how modern car doors seem to come pre-dented from the factory these days...  I assume it's for aerodynamics but I'm not a fan of the T-boned look lol.

Also don't like the squashed front grill, aerodynamics again I know, but the wide grill is one of the best parts of the facelift mk3 for me.

The interior looks ace though, and fortunately you don't have to see the outside while you're driving it!
