2012 Ford Focus


The 2012 Ford Focus has been redesigned from the ground up, including a renewed interior and updated sporty exterior. Front head lamps rap around the front of the focus with LED lighting.  The car is equipped with a direct injection 2.0 liter 4 cylinder engine with an output of 160 horsepower with a 6 speed automatic transmission.  Ford Company has taken a stance on "going green" by creating a vehicle that gets and EPA estimated 29 mpg in the city and 40 mpg on the highway.  Acceleration for a compact car is usually quite responsive.  The Focus whizzes from 0-60 in a comfortable 8.3 seconds.  The Ford Focus is one of the fastest accelerating vehicles in the compact car segment.
