This car can be called a high-performance steel gun. It has a unique 1.5T+8AT in its class. It only costs more than 130,000 yuan, and it costs even more than a Honda Civic.

Introduction: Today’s family cars have already met the needs of daily transportation. More and more consumers hope to have a certain amount of driving pleasure while traveling. This has led to the emergence of the sports family car market segment, such as: Honda Civic , Volkswagen Golf, Hyundai Festa, Lynk & Co 03 and other models. Today I will share with you a forgotten joint venture car. It is equipped with a 174-horsepower 1.5T+8AT power combination unique to its class for 130,000 yuan. , and only more than 130,000. It is our protagonist today - the Ford Focus. Speaking of the Focus, I believe everyone is familiar with it. Its influence and sales volume in the domestic market were no less than those of the current Honda Civic, Volkswagen Golf and other models. However, I don’t know why the Ford Focus, which was once highly praised, is not accepted by consumers and the market. Without further ado, let’s take a look at the actual appearance of the Ford Focus. In terms of suspension, it uses a front MacPherson independent suspension + rear multi-link independent suspension combination. As far as we know, the Focus chassis has been finely tuned at the racing level and is equipped with a lightweight suspension system. The wheel bounces faster and the steering response is more sensitive. It is worth mentioning that it is equipped with an SLA long and short arm blade rear independent suspension with an independent subframe with superior strength, bringing a flexible and comfortable control experience. In terms of body size, the length, width and height of the hatchback version of Fords are 4647/1810/1468mm respectively, and the wheelbase is 2705mm. Such body parameters also show that there is a good seating space in the car. The experiencer is 180cm tall, and the front seats are minimized. In the back, the headroom is four fingers, keeping the front row position unchanged, the headroom in the rear is two fingers, the legroom is three fingers, and a headrest is provided in the middle position of the rear row. The overall design and layout of the cabin are relatively conventional. This is also the latest interior design of the Ford brand. The center console is covered with a large area of ​​soft material, which has good tactile and visual effects. It also adopts a knob-type shift design. As for I won’t go into too much detail on the configuration. You must know that whether it is a joint venture car or a domestic car, the configuration is very rich and can fully meet the needs of daily use. In terms of power, the Focus, which starts at 136,800 yuan, is equipped with a 1.5T (three-cylinder) + 8AT power combination, with a maximum power of 174kw, a maximum horsepower of 174Ps, and a maximum torque of 243N.m. This power combination is also unique among joint venture models of the same class. It has also been given the reputation of a small performance gun by car owners. Although it is not as good as the Honda Civic 1.5T engine (maximum 177 horsepower), the Ford Focus's 8AT gearbox is more durable than the Honda Civic's CVT gearbox. In summary, in my personal opinion, the reason why the Ford Focus has been forgotten is because the influence of the Ford brand has declined seriously in recent years, and also because the Focus car uses a three-cylinder engine, and the three-cylinder engine has never been used. Chinese consumers accept it, so the current sales performance of the Ford Focus. However, as far as we know, the 1.5T model of the Ford Focus currently has a relatively large terminal discount. The entry-level model can be purchased naked for more than 110,000, which is still very good. , if you spend more than 110,000 yuan to buy a 1.5T+8AT Focus, do you still want a more expensive Honda Civic? Having said all that, do you have any suggestions or opinions about Ford Focus? Welcome to leave a comment below and join the discussion together.
