"The Ford Focus ST great value and the right performance in a practical hatchback body provides. It's a bit rough, but it is very exciting to drive. "
the standard Ford Focus is one of to the best cars in the small family sedan class drive, so it has to add up to an easy decision for Ford to have power and fine-tune the handling of manufacturing the Ford Focus ST. More speed, sharper steering and a firmer suspension only has the focus more exciting from a point of the driver's view.
There are certainly faster cars in the class of the ST, such as the Renault Megane Renault Sport and SEAT Leon Cupra 20, but they are more expensive and are probably more "hardcore" in addition to the Focus ST. Other competitors such as the Volkswagen Golf GTI and Skoda Octavia vRS are both slower than the gasoline ST and are not as much fun to drive either
Two engines are on offer ST buyers focus -. A 247bhp 2.0 EcoBoost -litre gasoline engine or a 181bhp 2.0-liter diesel engine. Gasoline is much the faster of the two, managing 0-62mph in 6.5 seconds compared to diesel-time of 8.1 seconds. The compromise is that the diesel is to run a lot cheaper.
The Diesel claims an economy figure of 67mpg and CO2 emissions of 110g / km, resulting in a tax liability of just £ 20 per year and 20% benefit-in-kind (BiK) rating for business car buyers. The petrol engine is capable of 41mpg and its CO2 emissions of 154g / km mean control is much higher at £ 180 per year. While running significantly more expensive than the diesel, the petrol engine is relatively efficient considering how powerful it is.

This force is the gasoline model take on more than 150 mph, but the car is also very entertaining to drive in corners. It may not be as efficient or as participation Megane and the Leon Cupra, but it is more exciting than the Golf GTI and managed at the same time convenient and practical to be for family life. The ride can occasionally company sometimes lose the feeling and the front wheels grip under hard acceleration, but overall the setup is conducive to its excellent curves and confidence-inspiring steering.
In terms of practicality, the Focus ST will not suffer in comparison to the standard model. You can get only with five doors that always persons and / or luggage makes easy in and out of the rear seats, while the boat keeps the same 316 liters as a standard car, though it is behind some competitors a little.
You can sort Focus ST have in one of three trim levels: ST1, ST2 and ST3. The entry-level model ST1 includes a body kit, 18-inch alloy wheels, Recaro seats, sport suspension, DAB digital radio and Ford SYNC infotainment system.

We believe that the Mid- Range-ST2 the best balance between price strikes and equipment of the three, as it includes air conditioning Dual-zone and a fast dehumidify windshield, and automatic lights and rain-sensing wipers.
because it is the same car as the standard Ford Focus essentially has the ST the same five-star Euro NCAP crash safety rating. It is all the same safety equipment as standard hatchback, including tire pressure monitoring system.
Ford not the greatest reputation for reliability, but the focus fared reasonably well in our 2015 Driver Power customer satisfaction survey. Overall, it was the 65th of 0 cars chosen by the owners, as it came to the reliability of the 56th, the ST should prove to be a decent long-term affair.
