The introduction of the new fourth-generation Ford Focus 2019 model year was quite epic. The epicness lies in the fact that two presentations of the car took place on the same day - at the European and Chinese exhibitions. It is noteworthy that the manufacturer presents the new generation model not as an updated one, but as a completely new version of the world famous car.

new versions of Ford Focus 2019

According to the creators, they have created something more than we saw in Ford Focus cars of the past years - now it embodies advanced modern technologies, a new level of comfort and enviable performance. After such statements, I want to get to know such a car better.

New model design

Before proceeding with the description of the appearance of the car, it is worth noting that the restyled Ford Focus will be produced in three body variations - a sedan, a hatchback and a station wagon, and a cross version is also provided. Another important point is the relocation of the model to a completely new platform, which made it possible to strengthen the new Ford Focus body and put it on an independent active suspension.

new hatchback Ford Focus ST-Line 2019

Now as for the appearance of the model - here we will get a car with a really catchy design for its market niche. Ford Focus 2018-2019 model year has a swift front end with new LED headlights, inside of which the designers have placed LED brackets, which looks incredibly cool! The false radiator grille has the same shape for all types of bodies, but its pattern is different - the sedan and station wagon have horizontal lines, while the hatchback has a cellular grille in their place. The front bumper has stylish bracket-shaped niches on the sides, where fog lights and small air ducts are located.

Ford Focus Active 2019

The most interesting food is presented in a new generation hatchback - bright geometric strokes of the ribs smoothly merge into the body of the body. The base of the rear bumper is defiantly raised and trimmed with plastic protection, on the right side of which are twin rounded exhaust pipes. On the sides of the bumper in the recesses under the corner ledges of the ribs fit small niches for side lights. The main rear lights, creating a contrast in the geometry of the ribs, received smooth patterns inside. The cross version of the Ford Focus looks similar to the Ford Focus hatchback.

wagon Ford Focus Wagon 2019

The station wagon, on the contrary, has calmer features and lines in the body: there are no such sharp strokes of the ribs, a single exhaust pipe, less bold headlights. The sedan is a cross between both of these bodies: headlights, rear bumper - from a hatchback, false radiator grille, front bumper, single exhaust pipe - from a station wagon, the strokes of the lines on the body are not as catchy as the first, but not as smooth either. like the second one. Thus, we got one car with several characters, in which each owner will find his reflection.

New Ford Focus Vignale

interior Ford Focus - what has changed

Once in the cabin of the new fourth-generation model, you understand that, compared to the previous version of the car, this one has increased spaciousness - there is significantly more space. Also immediately striking is an improved modern interior with a variety of functional and optional. The top of the center console is crowned by a vertical touchscreen display, under which are the music system control buttons (as an alternative to control from the display) and large air deflectors.

interior of the new Ford Focus 2019

Comfortable seats are responsible for the comfort of staying inside the new Focus (front seats with deep seating and lateral support) with ventilation and heating.

The driver will be pleased with a high-quality color information panel and a comfortable plump steering wheel with a multifunctional control system for car options. For models with a manual transmission, a stylish gear lever with a spherical end at the top will be placed in the cabin, and for cars with an automatic transmission - a control washer, like in Jaguar models.

Due to the change of the bogie, the body also changed its overall dimensions of the Ford Focus (hatchback / station wagon):

  • length: 4380/4670 mm;
  • width: 1827 mm (for all bodies);
  • height: 1455/1480 mm;
  • wheelbase: 2700 mm.

Owners are invited to equip their car with rims - a choice of 17-19-inch.

At the car exhibitions in which the new Ford Focus participated, information about the proposed trim levels was not announced. But, given the fact that they will go on sale in the European and Russian markets this autumn, we should expect the publication of these data in the near future.

- 3-cylinder gasoline liter engine with powers of 86, 101 and 124 hp;

Video test Ford Focus 2018-2019:

Photo of the updated Ford Focus 2019:

The popularity of the Ford Focus can be judged by one simple number: 123. It was in the markets of so many countries that the car was sold since its debut in 1998. 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 Focus has one interesting achievement: the car has been one of the top three best-selling cars on the world market for ten years in a row.

Given this, it should not seem strange that the excitement that caused the spy photos posted on the Internet of the new Ford Focus 4 2018 model year. Today we will try to find out what we can expect from the new model.

It is immediately noticeable that the Ford Focus 2018 has become taller, but at the same time lost weight. This is due to the decision of manufacturers to use a new body, which is made mainly of aluminum and carbon fiber. The exterior of the car has become calmer, but at the same time more expressive. Some experts noted that sharpness and sportiness were added to the appearance of the "American". The reason for this was that the designers partially "plagiarized" the legendary Mustang.

In the design of the front of the car, the main features of the model range are visible. The first thing I would like to note is the smooth flowing hood, on which you can see several air currents, the main purpose of which is to improve the streamlining of the body. A little higher is a huge windshield - the same as its predecessor. The nose of the American model is equipped with a small hexagonal grille, as well as branded LED headlights. There are no surprises in the layout of the bottom of the bumper: a trapezoidal air intake and a pair of wide foglights.

In profile, the car has become more dynamic and bolder. Immediately, we note the drop-down roof, due to which the Focus 4 body boasts phenomenal aerodynamics. I was somewhat surprised by the lower contour of the glazing zone directed downwards, but, apparently, the developers had their own motives to arrange everything in this way. I would also like to note the voluminous stampings on the side doors and stylish wheel arches.

In the design of the rear of the car, there were several interesting novelties, but, as before, the good old Ford Focus is visible. What is the high-tech visor worth, which has already become the hallmark of the lineup. In addition, I would like to note the large tailgate, and huge headlights. As for the bumper, this massive element is equipped with running lights and an exhaust pipe.





Salon

In the interior of the novelty, practically nothing has changed. As before, the interior of the American car is very simple and practical. All this is successfully combined with its overall manufacturability and versatility. It is worth noting that the “passivity” of the manufacturers regarding the interior was not liked by the fans, who never cease to express dissatisfaction. Although this is not entirely fair - in general, the interior looks quite good, and Focus 4 2018 is definitely not inferior to its opponents in this aspect.

The dashboard is arranged very compactly, but this does not affect its readability. The main element of the console, of course, is the touch screen, located at the top of it. Below, manufacturers have installed an audio system and climate control, the block of which smoothly passes into the gearshift lever platform.

As for the steering wheel, outwardly it has not changed, but its diameter has decreased. As conceived by the developers, this should improve handling. Well, everyone will be able to confirm or deny this on a trial test drive. In addition, a number of new multimedia buttons appeared on the steering wheel.



The driver's and front passenger's seats have undergone a major upgrade compared to the previous version of the model. Their design was carried out by leading German specialists, whose work was not in vain: a high level of comfort and perfect ergonomics. The rear passengers have more free space, and their sofa in terms of comfort is in no way inferior to the driver's seat.

The quality of the finish is quite solid, although motorists expected better. The situation is partially saved by the incredible sound insulation.

Specifications

In terms of performance, we already know for sure that the new Focus 2018 will get a stiffer suspension, as well as an upgraded chassis, the main goal of which is to increase the dynamism of the American car. It is worth noting that some body elements and components of the model are manufactured at the Yelabuga plant - this should make the Focus 4 generation even closer for domestic motorists.

The new model will be offered in three body styles: in addition to the traditional hatchback, buyers can also count on a sedan and station wagon. In addition, the Americans are planning to release an exclusive version of the car - Focus 4 RS 500, with a total circulation of only 500 copies.

The line of power plants of the novelty consists of two gasoline engines - 1.5 and 1.6 liters. It is worth noting that the second option is offered in three versions: 85, 105 and 125 horsepower. The 1.5-liter engine is capable of producing 150 "horses". All units work with 6 manual transmissions, and 6 automatic transmissions can additionally be connected to the younger gasoline engine.

In addition, all engines can safely operate on 92nd gasoline, and, moreover, comply with EURO-6 standards.

Options and prices

Most likely, the American car will be offered in two trim levels. The basic list of equipment will include:

  • Cruise control.
  • Parktronic.
  • Security package.
  • Multifunction steering wheel.

The minimum price of new items will be set at around 800 thousand rubles. The most shaken modification will cost buyers 1,100 thousand rubles. The cost may seem somewhat overpriced, but the manufacturers promise that the price is fully consistent with the quality.

Release date in Russia

The start of the mass assembly of new items is scheduled for the spring of 2018. Therefore, the start of sales in Russia should be expected no earlier than in the 3rd-4th quarter. Focus 2018 will most likely be assembled at the St. Petersburg branch of the American company, but the information has not yet been confirmed.

Competitors

Among the budget competitors Focus 2018 should be noted Renault Simbol, and. If we talk about top opponents, there are such models as, and. Here, the superiority of the American does not seem so obvious, and the Swedish V40 looks like a clear favorite.

The platform for the presentation of the Focus in the station wagon was the auto show in Germany in the spring of 2018. Restyling seriously walked in almost all parameters of the car. The new model will boast a significantly redesigned design, which is bound to appeal to many, a high-quality and comfortable interior trimmed with good materials, and will also receive decent technical characteristics for its class. Ford Focus 4 (station wagon) 2018 is perfect for family people of any age who care not only about how the car looks, but also how it drives.

One of the main advantages of the car is the appearance. The new body is very different from the previous generation. In the photo you can find a completely redone muzzle and back, which have acquired a new relief, optics, air intakes and other elements, and now adorned with all sorts of wavy protrusions and recesses on the sides.

The front of the car has become somewhat larger. She grew in both length and height. The hood cover is now located at a slight slope to the road, and closer to the center it begins to round off. Under the hood, you can find a new massive radiator grille in the shape of a polygon. Inside it flaunts several horizontal stripes, which, like the perimeter, are trimmed with chrome. On the sides of the air intake are quite large drop-shaped headlights, which will be filled with xenon.

There is not so much space allocated for the body kit, but it still has a lot of interesting things. Its central part is filled with a small air intake strip, which increases the amount of cooled air entering the engine compartment. Along the edges of the body kit, you can find small recesses containing fog optics. There are also many relief ledges here.

Very much the car has changed on the sides. Immediately striking is the abundance of undulating relief, most of which is located on the doors. The window area has noticeably increased, so that each passenger will now have a better view of everything that happens around the car. The glasses themselves take interesting forms here and can be framed either in chrome or black gloss. The arches have become slightly larger, and the wheels are now decorated with stylish disks of rather large sizes.

The car exudes the most aggression from behind. Like many similar cars, the roof here ends with a wide visor, complemented by brake lights. Under it is a strongly embossed tailgate, on which you can also find long strips of overall optics. A body kit sticks out noticeably here, consisting of foglights, a small plastic layer and only one, unfortunately, a cutout for the exhaust pipe.





Salon

The car got a lot of changes inside. The new Ford Focus 4 (wagon) 2018 model year boasts interior trim made of natural or artificial leather, a variety of fabrics, plastics and even metals. The multimedia equipment has been noticeably improved. Now the driver will be noticeably less tired on the road, as the car has acquired a huge number of modern assistants.



The center console of the car is very neat and stylish. At the very top of the dashboard is a fairly large display of the multimedia system with touch controls, which contains almost all the functions of the machine. Analog functional controls are located a little lower on the panel, made in the form of a thin strip. Here you can find several buttons and washers that are responsible for setting the climate control and various heatings. Next, there was a place for neat deflectors, and the console finishes with a shield with holes for accessories and a few more buttons.



The tunnel also got a nice look. It starts with a large recess in which you can store various hand luggage, as well as charge your phone using wireless charging technology. In the center of the tunnel you can find either a shift knob or a special puck to select the driving mode, several buttons and a row of massive cup holders with the possibility of cooling. Everything ends with a huge armrest, inside of which there is a large compartment for things that can cool the contents.



The quality of the chairs has also improved markedly. Although the car is large, there are only five seats, so there will be enough space for each passenger to enjoy a comfortable ride over any distance. They will get off with either leather or fabrics, depending on the configuration. Also, the seats are complemented by all sorts of equipment to increase the level of comfort. In the front you can find heating, many electrical adjustments, excellent lateral support and comfortable head restraints. The rear triple sofa boasts heated seats, an adjustable backrest, an armrest with holes for glasses and a richly equipped own climate system.

The size of the trunk of the car is also impressive. The station wagon can carry things up to 1650 liters. Later, a test drive will refute or confirm this information.

Specifications

The 2018 Ford Focus 4 station wagon will be powered by both diesel and petrol engines. The former include units, the volumes of which vary from 1.5 to 2.0 liters. Their power can vary from 95 to 150 horsepower, which is not so little. The gasoline range is represented by engines from 1 to 1.5 liters, giving out 85-182 forces. In the base, each unit is paired with a six-speed mechanics that transmits forces to the front axle. For a surcharge, the car can be equipped with an eight-speed automatic.

Options and prices

Unfortunately, the price, as well as a set of options for the Ford Focus 4 (station wagon) 2018, have not yet been disclosed.

Release date in Russia

At home, the car will go on sale at the end of 2018. The start of sales in Russia, as well as in many European countries, is expected closer to the spring of 2019.
