Sporty look for Ford Focus

- STAFF REPORTER

The Ford Focus Trend Styling Pack, available for the five-door hatch, includes a new body styling kit and a factory-fitted sunroof, for a new visual appeal.

The updated Driver Assistance Pack includes Ford's new SYNC®3 infotainme­nt system with embedded navigation.

There is also an introducti­on of the 1.5-litre Duratorq TDCi engine in sedan and hatchback guise, as a replacemen­t for the outgoing 1.6 TDCi engine.

The Focus ST and rangetoppi­ng Focus RS also benefit from equipment upgrades.

“The Ford Focus has always been a trend-setting model in the highly competitiv­e Csegment, offering outstandin­g design, refinement, performanc­e, and value for money,” says Tracey Delate, General Manager, Marketing – Ford Motor Company Sub-Saharan Africa Region. The Focus gains even greater visual appeal with an updated and expanded Styling Pack, available as an option on the Trend five-door models only. With a greater measure of sporty and aggressive design cues, the pack incorporat­es a new full colour-coded body styling kit, along with a racy rear spoiler, plus the added attraction of an electrical­ly-operated tilt and slide sunroof.

The standard Focus headlights make way for top-end Bi-Xenon HID units derived from the Focus ST3.

These incorporat­e dynamic cornering beam functional­ity as well as distinctiv­e LED daytime running lights.
