Sedan Ford Focus I. Ford Focus i - model description Detailed technical data Ford Focus 1
Ford Focus is a car in the C-class segment manufactured by Ford since 1998 and to date. For its history, the car has undergone three generations in development. The British magazine CAR considers it one of the 50 greatest cars over the past 50 years.
The focus is a very popular car - Europe is included in the 10th of the most sold cars, and in Russia was the most sold foreign car in 2010, and in 2012 the best-selling car in the world.
The closest focus competitors are cars of other brands, such as Citroen C4, Hyundai Elantra, Honda Civic, Renault Fluence, Kia Ceed, Opel Astra, Skoda Octavia, Toyota Corolla, Toyota Auris, Chevrolet Cruze, Mazda 3, Lada Vesta, Mitsubishi Lancer, Nissan Almera, Peugeot 308, Renault Fluence and Volkswagen Golf.
First generation
Ford presented the first focus in 1998 in Europe as a replacement of the model. The first generation was produced until 2004. In 2002, restyling was held, including updated headlights, a bumper, a radiator grille, a central console, seats and an additional set of options.Sales began in North America in October 1999 as a surprise on the Christmas holiday to the General Director of Ford Jacques Nasser.
The focus was made in various body modifications - 3-door hatchback, 5-door hatchback, sedan and wagon. Transmission is available in three versions - 4-speed automatic, as well as mechanical 5 and 6 speed. Engines have a wide selection - gasoline: 1.4, 1.6, 1.8 and 2.0 liters, as well as diesel 1.8 liters.
According to Euroncap, the focus received 4 out of 5 stars for the safety of the driver and passengers, 2 out of 4 stars for pedestrian safety.
Second generation
On September 23, 2004, the second generation focus is presented at the Paris Motor Show. He was produced from 2004 to 2011.The size of the car has become a little more, both on the wheelbase and total length, width and weight. Body rigidity increased by 10%. Together with this, the new suspension design allowed to improve car handling.
The safety of the car according to Euroncap received the highest score of 5 stars out of five to protect adults, 4 out of 5 to protect children and 2 of 4 to protect pedestrians, which surpassed competitors in this segment of Opel Astra and Volkswagen Golf.
The body was made in five versions - 3 and 5-door hatchback, 4-door sedan, 5-door wagon and 2-door convertible coupe. Transmission is available in four versions - 4-speed automatic, 5 and 6-speed mechanical and 6-speed PowerShift. Motors petrol duratec volume 1.4, 1.6, 1.8, 2.0 and 2.5 liters and diesel DuratorQ TDCI volume 1.6, 1.8 and 2.0 liters.
Third generation
Presented in 2010 at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit as a 2012 model. Produced from 2011 to the present. This model has become "global", which means a change of European second generation and 10-year-old North American.The most interesting technical innovations are ECOBOOST SCTI family engines, a six-speed preselective power transmission PowerShift, steering with an electric powerful, side airbags, "curtains" safety.
The most interesting options are an iPod connection via USB, active assistance in parking, tracking the driver's fatigue, preventing collisions at low speed, informing about the availability of a car in the "dead" zone, a prevention of the remittance from the traffic strip, road sign recognition.
The body is made in three versions - 5-door hatchback, 4-door sedan and 5-door wagon. Engines - gasoline ECOBOOST volume 1.0, 1.5, 2.0 and 2.3 liters, gasoline duratec Ti-VCT 1.6 liter and diesel DuratorQ TDCI volume 1.5, 1.6 and 2.0 liters. Transmission may be mechanical and robotic PowerShift.

The Ford Focus hatchback of the 1st generation raised the world premiere at the Geneva Motor Show in 1998 along with a three-bill model. On the conveyor, the car lasted until 2004, after surviving scheduled modernization in 2002.
The appearance of the "focus" in the body of the hatchback is driven in the style of "New EDGE", and, in fact, to the rear window line, it is completely identical to the sedan (this applies to the five-door version, three-year has some differences). But due to the layout of the back, a more dynamic and holistic appearance is created, in which sharp corners and soft lines have successfully cooked, although the first still prevail.
Ford Focus Hatchback First Generation was available in three- and five-door solutions. The car's length is 4152 mm, width - 1698-1702 mm, height - 1430-1460 mm, wheelbase - 2615 mm. From the bottom to the roadway, it has 170 mm (clearance).
The interior of Focus in the body of the hatchback on architecture and design does not have differences from the internal decoration of the three-disconnect model: an informative dashboard, the original central console with a large number of complex lines and the logical placement of the main controls, solid finishing materials and a qualitative level of execution.
On the Hatchback Ford Focus of the 1st generation is set by a chairs with an optimal profile and sufficient ranges of settings. The rear sofa is welded without problems with three adult passengers, which is not a lot of stock in the legs in the legs.
For the transportation of baggage in the arsenal of the five-door "focus", a 396-liter cargo compartment is listed, a three-door model is less than 46 liters. After folding separately the back of the second row of seats, useful volume increases to 1200 liters. In the underground, a spare wheel of a full size and a set of necessary tools.
The first generation Ford Focus hatchback was installed four gasoline and two diesel engines. The gasoline line is formed by Motors of the Zetec series from 1.4 to 2.0 liters, having at its disposal from 75 to 130 horsepower and from 123 to 183 Nm of torque. Diesel with turbocharging with a volume of 2.0 liters generates 90 forces and 200 nm peak thrust, and its more powerful option is on 26 "horses" and 50 nm more. In Tandem, the aggregates were offered a 5-speed "mechanics" or a 4-speed "automatic".
For all the technical parameters of the Focus in the body of the hatchback, sedan is identical: the Ford C170 platform, a completely independent suspension (in front and rear applied to McPherson and a multi-dimensional), power steering hydraulic system, brake system with ventilated discs on the front wheels and rear drums (in expensive versions - with disks).
In the secondary market of Russia, the owner of the first-generation Ford Focus hatchback in 2015 is costing from 150,000 to 250,000 rubles, and the specific cost is highly dependent on the technical condition of the car, its year of production and the level of equipment.
