A Closer Look at the Focus

The 2016 Ford Focus is available in compact sedan and hatchback body styles, and each comes with a quiet and spacious interior loaded with technology offerings, including a standard rear vision camera. Eight versions are available-S Sedan, SE Sedan, SE Hatchback, Titanium Sedan, Titanium Hatch, ST, Electric, and RS-and each provides an efficient ride and a reliable performance.

Thanks to its innovative features, Consumers Digest recognized the Focus as a Best Buy for the 2016 model year out of 48 cars and 13 classes of automobiles. And it's no wonder, with its sharp handling, available infotainment, and performance-oriented design, the 2016 Ford Focus exceeds expectations.

Power and Performance

Aside from its electric powertrain, the 2016 Ford Focus offers three engines in its lineup: an available 123-horsepower 1.0-liter EcoBoost® three-cylinder for premium efficiency, a 160-horsepower 2.0-liter Ti-VCT four-cylinder that's standard on most models, and a 252-horsepower 2.0-liter EcoBoost® four-cylinder that comes on the ST trims.

Each engine delivers an energetic power output, especially with the Focus' aerodynamic design and smooth-shifting transmission options: a five-speed manual, a six-speed manual, a six-speed PowerShift automatic, a six-speed PowerShift Automatic with SelectShift^TM Manual Control, and a single-shift automatic on electric models. However it's equipped, the Focus lends itself to an enticing and engaging ride around the Philadelphia area.
