New Ford Focus in Russia: waiting for a long time. Ford Focus: "Focus" with reincarnation Prices and equipment in Russia

home / Miscellaneous

The first Ford Focus cars appeared in Russia in 1999 and, since then, more than half a million of them have been sold in our country alone, which once again confirms that Ford cars are very popular throughout the CIS, and in particular in Russia. It can be said with absolute certainty that the new 2018 Ford Focus will also be in great demand from Russians. No wonder - the car is available for the middle class, the prices for service and spare parts are quite democratic, the quality is up to the mark. Let's take a closer look at the Ford Focus and see what it is?

Generation 1 (1998-2004). Initially, cars were produced in Germany with Spain, a little later, production was established in the USA and Mexico. And in 2002, the conveyor was launched in the Leningrad region, which predetermined the future popularity of the Focuses in Russia and made them a "people's" car.

In the same year, a significant restyling was carried out and "pumped-over" versions of ST170 (Sport Technology) and RS (Rally Sport) appeared.

Generation 2 (2004-20011). The car became more versatile and was produced on the C1 platform, on which a number of Volvo and Mazda brands are also running. In 2008, at the Frankfurt Motor Show, a restyling in the style of the so-called kinetic design was presented.

Generation 3 (2011-2018). The model was unveiled at the Detroit Auto Show in January 2010. Convertibles and 3-door coupes were removed from the lineup. The technical characteristics of the platform and the engine, as well as the safety systems, have been significantly improved. In 2014, a restyling was carried out, and, also, the production of models with a diesel engine began.

Generation 4 (2018 ...). Despite the fact that the 3rd generation of Focuses turned out to be extremely successful, its time is passing and, according to the manufacturer's promises, in 2018 we will see the Ford Focus IV. It is known that the manufacturer is already testing new items, most likely the body shape itself will be changed insignificantly, but many modern "chips" will appear, such as LED optics already in the basic configuration, and more modern and stylish materials will be used in the interior.

At the moment, spy photos were able to capture only prototypes, on which only certain technical developments planned for implementation in the new 2018 Ford Focus 4 were tested. The appearance of the car will become a little more aggressive, as far as this word is generally applicable to this model, it would be more correct to say that it has become more expressive. It is important to note that according to the statements of the leadership of Ford, the novelty will surpass the current version of Ford in dimensions, thanks to which it will become more spacious and practical, especially for a station wagon. The paradox is that, together with the increase in overall dimensions, the car will become lighter by almost 200 kilograms, thanks to more modern body materials. Considering that its weight was already small - 1300 kg, the change is very significant.

They plan to increase the car both in length and in width, which will be possible thanks to the use of a new chassis. It is possible that the new car will acquire innovative LED optics, as its main competitor in the C-class, the Opel Astra K. The use of such optics, as the experience of the same Astra has already shown, is the right path to success, especially if the company sets as its goal expansion of presence both in Europe and in Russia.

Interior

Based on the words spoken by the managers of the company, then the novelty should expect the use of new high-quality materials in the finishing of the car. Ford also promised to revise the multimedia system, in particular, redesign the design and improve performance. In addition, the new multimedia will support Android Auto and Apple Car - but this is more likely not an advantage, but a necessity, a tribute to reality. Perhaps for the sake of trends, the new Ford will acquire a fully digital instrument panel. As already mentioned, due to the increased dimensions of the body, the inside of the Focus 4 will become somewhat more spacious. Probably, following its main competitor in the C-class, the novelty will already be equipped with a heated rear row of seats in the base.

The steering wheel of the car will become slightly smaller in size and take on a more sporty look.

Technical characteristics of the lineup Ford Focus 4th generation 2018

The entire line of Ford Focus 4 2018 is equipped only with turbocharged engines of the EcoBoost and EcoBlue families.

Petrol EcoBoost will be presented in two variations:

  • three-cylinder engine with a volume of 1 liter and a capacity of 100 to 140 horsepower;
  • four-cylinder engine with a volume of 1.5 liters and 180 horsepower.

The EcoBlue diesel range will be presented by:

  • 1.5 liter engine with 118 horsepower;
  • "Kopeck piece" with a capacity of 130 horsepower.

The manufacturer hints that the 2018 Focus car can also be equipped with a hybrid engine with a range of more than 150 kilometers on a single battery charge, and a fully electric drive, but the availability of these models on the Russian market is still a big question.

Do not forget about the "hot" versions of the RS and ST, which, in addition to a forced two-liter engine with a capacity of about 260 horsepower, will also be equipped with an all-wheel drive system.

While we're on the subject of drive, let's take a look at the drivetrain and suspension. There is no unambiguous information from the manufacturer, which is strange. It is known for certain only about the presence of a 6-speed manual transmission and a 6-speed "robot".

It is also worth considering the emergence of the Power Shift machine, which has proven itself in the third generation of the Focus. But what really remains a mystery, and at the same time arouses some interest, is a completely new automatic transmission with 9 steps.

As for the suspension, we can definitely say that the increased wheelbase will significantly affect the driving characteristics of the 2018 Ford Focus 4. But to say whether this suspension will be smoother and more comfortable or whether the car, like a cat, will cling to the roadway, we cannot yet, it all depends on the suspension and steering settings.

It is also worth considering that, despite the increase in the dimensions of the Ford body, its weight is noticeably lower than that of its predecessor and will be something about one ton. This is achieved through the use of high-strength steel, aluminum, and carbon fiber in the body structure, which will make the car lighter.

With regard to the drive, of course, preference will be given to the front drive wheels, of course, except for the "charged" versions, which will be equipped with all-wheel drive.

The main advantages of the new model of the fourth generation Ford Focus 2018

Let's take a look at what we've learned about the new 2018 Ford Focus 4 and compare it with previous versions of the car, with their pros and cons.

The new model will undoubtedly be an extremely attractive vehicle. The machine combines an interesting, by today's standards, design, modern technical stuffing with a large number of various functions.

Of course, the richness and quality of finishing materials will not go unnoticed. But if you think about it, these changes and improvements directly affect the price of the car and, as a rule, lead to a rise in the price of the product by 15% over the previous version.

Video presentation of the restyled Ford Focus 4. The price of the car in 2018

And we remember that one of the advantages of previous versions of "Focus" was its availability. Thus, an increase in the price of a car will lead to the fact that Ford's sales in the domestic car market will instantly and significantly decrease.

It will not be superfluous to remember that lately there has been a tendency among car owners to massively change to Fiesta, which last year took second place in terms of sales. Therefore, the increase in the price of Focus will only aggravate the situation.

* - approximate data

The first Ford Focus cars appeared in Russia in 1999 and, since then, more than half a million of them have been sold in our country alone, which once again confirms that Ford cars are very popular throughout the CIS, and in particular in Russia. It can be said with absolute certainty that the new 2018 Ford Focus will also be in great demand from Russians. No wonder - the car is available for the middle class, the prices for service and spare parts are quite democratic, the quality is up to the mark. Let's take a closer look at the Ford Focus and see what it is like?

Generation 1 (1998-2004). Initially, cars were produced in Germany with Spain, a little later, production was established in the USA and Mexico. And in 2002, the conveyor was launched in the Leningrad region, which predetermined the future popularity of the Focuses in Russia and made them a "people's" car.

In the same year, a significant restyling was carried out and "pumped-over" versions of ST170 (Sport Technology) and RS (Rally Sport) appeared.

Generation 2 (2004-20011). The car became more versatile and was produced on the C1 platform, on which a number of Volvo and Mazda brands are also running. In 2008, at the Frankfurt Motor Show, a restyling in the style of the so-called kinetic design was presented.

Generation 3 (2011-2018). The model was unveiled at the Detroit Auto Show in January 2010. Convertibles and 3-door coupes were removed from the lineup. The technical characteristics of the platform and the engine, as well as the safety systems, have been significantly improved. In 2014, a restyling was carried out, and, also, the production of models with a diesel engine began.

Generation 4 (2018 ...). Despite the fact that the 3rd generation of Focuses turned out to be extremely successful, its time is passing and, according to the manufacturer's promises, in 2018 we will see the Ford Focus IV. It is known that the manufacturer is already testing new items, most likely the body shape itself will be changed insignificantly, but many modern "chips" will appear, such as LED optics already in the basic configuration, and more modern and stylish materials will be used in the interior.

Exterior

At the beginning of the calendar year, the first spy photos of the 4th generation Ford Focus appeared on the network, and on April 10, 2018, the official presentation of the model took place in China and Europe. The new car is positioned as the embodiment of the most advanced technologies and a new era of design. It will receive impressive technical characteristics, a stylish exterior, as well as a comfortable and functional interior, in which everything is thought out for the safety and convenience of the driver and passengers.

The exterior of the model is characterized by such elements as:

  • elongated hood;
  • a large hexagonal radiator grille in the style of Aston Martin;
  • windshield with an increased angle of inclination, ensuring the absence of glare from sunlight and oncoming headlights;
  • stylish head optics with an exclusive pattern of LED lines;
  • a massive front bumper with large air intakes, in the blocks of which neat foglights are also mounted;
  • smooth lines, emphasized by stylish stamping of body elements;
  • rising bottom line of side glazing;
  • striking rear bumper design with integrated dimensions and twin exhaust tips;
  • a small roof spoiler that looks like a continuation of the roofline;
  • a new shape of the rear lights, consisting of two blocks, one of which is located on the tailgate;
  • exclusive design of rims.



The work of designers and engineers is visible to the naked eye, because the new Ford Focus, which will go on sale in 2018-2019, has become even more expressive and received a stylish modern design, which will surely ensure interest in the model from young people who value reliability, comfort and technical perfection of the car.

The car will be produced in three body styles:

  • sedan;
  • hatchback;
  • station wagon.

Also, in addition to standard configurations, buyers will be offered exclusive options:

  • Focus Active - sports cross-version;
  • The Focus Vignale is a luxury luxury car.

According to the statements of the Ford management, the novelty will surpass the current version of Ford in size, making it more spacious and practical, especially the station wagon. The paradox is that along with the increase in overall dimensions, the car will become lighter by almost 200 kilograms, thanks to more modern body materials. Considering that its weight was already small - 1300 kg, the change is very significant.



They plan to increase the car both in length and in width, which will be possible thanks to the use of a new chassis. It is possible that the new car will acquire innovative LED optics, as its main competitor in the C-class, the Opel Astra K. The use of such optics, as the experience of the same Astra has already shown, is the right path to success, especially if the company sets as its goal expansion of presence both in Europe and in Russia.

Interior

There are also quite a lot of innovations in the cabin, and first of all, it is the use of new high-quality materials in the decoration of the car and expanded functionality. In general, the design is calmer than its predecessor. The style and elegance of the lines are favorably complemented by the high functionality of the systems, as well as the ergonomics of the space and the thoughtfulness of the interior in the details. Improvements and improvements have been made in various areas:

  1. design of the main elements;
  2. functionality and quality of the standard multimedia system and acoustics;
  3. security, which is now truly at the highest level.

Of the main changes, it is worth noting:

  • multifunction sports steering wheel of three-spoke design;
  • innovative digital instrument panel;
  • convenient joystick for multimedia control;
  • integrated navigation system with a large touchscreen display;
  • full power accessories, which should also include heating for the second row of seats.




Specifications of the 2018 Ford Focus 4

Although there is not so much information about the new Ford Focus, some technical characteristics of the car are already known. In particular, we can say with confidence that the novelty will be equipped exclusively with turbocharged engines:

  1. petrol EcoBoost;
  2. diesel EcoBlue.

According to insider information, the base for the car will be a liter EcoBoost (three cylinders) with a capacity of 100 horsepower. The most powerful petrol engine will have a volume of 1.5 liters (4 cylinders) and 180 horsepower. A six-speed manual will be used as a transmission in the base; both a classic automatic and PowerShift are optionally available. Several sources state that the Focus 4 will feature a 9-speed automatic. The charged (ST) version of the car will receive an upgraded 2-liter EcoBoost with 260 horsepower.

The car will be driven exclusively by the front, except that only the RS version will be able to boast of 4-wheel drive.

Start of sales in Russia and price

The new Ford hatchback has been officially presented, and this allows us to assert that the novelty will appear in car dealerships in Europe and China (namely, the manufacturer primarily counted on these markets) this fall. It is difficult to say when the new product will be available in Russia. Most likely this will happen at the end of 2018 or at the very beginning of 2019.

In Europe, the price of the basic configuration of the 4th generation Ford Forcus will start at 19,000 euros.

The first generation of this car appeared back in 1999. During this time, three generations have appeared, which differ significantly from each other. Over a long period of sales, the vehicle has sold over one million, which indicates the great popularity of this model. Most recently, the Ford Focus 4 2018 appeared, the photo spyware of which appeared on the Internet quite recently. The car is a representative of the middle class, its price is relatively low. Consider the features of the fourth generation, which has not yet been officially introduced.

Long-awaited bestseller after update

Specifications

Ford Focus 2018 in a new body should become a very attractive car. While not known all the technical characteristics of the new generation, but still some information is known. An example is the following:


However, all other characteristics are not yet known.

Exterior

Ford Focus 4 2018 (photo, price), when it will be released in Russia, is not yet known, should turn out to be a very attractive car. However, so far only prototypes have been presented, on which new technical developments are being tested. The features of the exterior include the following points:

  • The appearance has become more aggressive and expressive, as far as is characteristic of the class in question.
  • The size of the new generation will also change. Due to this, the car should become more comfortable. There will also be a station wagon version.
  • The use of modern technologies has made it possible to reduce its weight while increasing the dimensions of the body. So almost all cars have become lighter by about 200 kilograms. The use of modern materials has led to improved handling by increasing the rigidity of the body. The moment that the mass of the previous generation was only 1300 kilograms, the changes will be significant. By reducing the weight, the fuel consumption will also decrease.
  • The body enlargement will be carried out in length and width. The width of the new Ford Focus 2018 has grown due to the installation of a new chassis. Increasing the width of the body will increase the stability of the vehicle on the road.
  • Today, LED optics are being installed on almost all new generations of various cars. This is due to the fact that it is more effective and looks more attractive. However, the increasing complexity of the design increases the cost of the car. Therefore, it is not yet known whether all configurations will have optics of this type or only more expensive equipment options.

Considering the main competitor in this class, that is, the Opel Astra, we note that the car was equipped with innovative diode optics with the function of automatically adjusting to road conditions.

Interior of Ford Focus 2018

The second and third generations were not characterized by attractive interiors. According to the automaker, the interior of the new generation will change significantly. Among the features, we note the following points:

  • When finishing, better materials should be used. At the same time, the build quality should also be improved.
  • Ford representatives promised to revise the multimedia system, which was previously not highly efficient and had significant problems. Among the shortcomings should be noted the poor design and slow operation of the device. According to current trends, the device will support the popular Android Auto and Apple Car programs. Due to these programs, it will be possible to synchronize a mobile device. Synchronization can be done via Bluetooth wireless technology or USB.
  • In an expensive configuration, a fully digital dashboard will be installed. Due to this, all information will be better read.
  • As previously noted, the body should grow in size, due to which the interior will become more comfortable.
  • From the photos posted on the network, you can note the new steering wheel with 4 spokes, and the main emphasis in the design of the central torpedo is placed on the control unit of the standard audio system. Sports seats are expected to be fitted as standard.

The salon turned out to be new, high quality and quite functional. However, it cannot be called truly modern.

Options and prices Ford Focus 4 2018 in a new body

As previously noted, the new 2018-2019 Ford Focus, configuration and prices, which have not yet been officially presented, is not yet available for sale and there is little information about the new product. The hatchback version should appear earlier, after which it will be possible to purchase a sedan and station wagon. Among the features, we note the following points:

  1. The car must be supplied in several trim levels. At the same time, the most affordable offer will cost 750,000 rubles.
  2. Traditionally, the cost of this model increases by about 10-15%. This is due to the fact that the model is very popular and due to this the automaker decided to increase its revenues.
  3. In pursuit of its competitors, the American automaker decided to significantly increase the number of available options. For example, the front and rear seats can be heated and have an electric control unit. In this case, the decoration can be represented by textiles, leather and other materials.
  4. The car will become better and better equipped through the installation of a variety of systems. So already in the middle-price configuration it is planned to install a multimedia system.

Until the car was officially presented, it is difficult to say in what trim levels it will be sold.

Main competitors

There are quite a few serious competitors in class C. This is due to the fact that most buyers have an amount with them, which is enough only to purchase models from this class. In addition, with each new generation, the quality of finishing and equipment increases significantly. The competitors for this model are as follows:

  1. Sedan.
  2. Sedan.
  3. Sedan.

It is still difficult to assess the competitiveness of the new proposal from the American automaker, since there is practically no official information about it. Summing up, we note that the new car will become more technological and attractive. Due to the use of a new base and chassis when creating this car, the comfort of passengers and handling were significantly increased. Recently, GM products have enjoyed relatively little popularity due to the development of technology from German and Asian automakers. The novelty should significantly increase the number of sales. Many believe that this model should become a bestseller.

Russian motorists first encountered the "American" in 1999, and since that time it has been the best-selling foreign car in its class. It is worth noting that the Focus belongs to one interesting achievement: for ten years in a row, the car was among the top three best-selling cars in the world market.

New Ford Focus 2018: configurations and prices

This figure is valid for the initial configuration of the Ambiente, and in total there will be 3 levels of equipment in the arsenal, 4 engines and 3 types of gearboxes. So that reliability does not suffer in harsh operating conditions, the release date of 3-cylinder turbocharged engines in Russia is not considered.

The technical characteristics of the Russian Focuses still provide for the 1.6-liter atmospheric power units that are in demand in the domestic market.

As for the overall dimensions, they will not change much, but an increase in the wheelbase by 50 mm promises a considerable increase in the interior.

In addition to the traditional hatchback in Europe, options will be available: sedan, station wagon and version with increased clearance Active. For the latter, it will be possible to order four-wheel drive with a multi-plate clutch for connecting the rear wheels and an electronic imitation of a differential lock. The range of gasoline and diesel units assumes the use of engines with a volume of 1.0 to 2.3 liters with a capacity of 85-360 horsepower, and as transmissions are provided: mechanics, a classic automatic machine and a robot with two clutches.

New Ford Focus 2018: specifications

As you know, 3-cylinder turbo engines will not be supplied to Russia, and for the new Ford Focus 2018 body, the technical characteristics as the base engine provide for an 85-horsepower 1.6-liter naturally aspirated unit in alliance with a 6-speed manual transmission.
