The focus that was missing has finally arrived: in the splendid setting of the Foro Italico in Rome was made the new media version of the Wagon Ford, from 2001 to 2010 that broke the charts with 303,631 units delivered in the category. Influenced by Kinetic Design, differs little from its predecessor and aims to convey the dynamism of the 5-door body on a larger vehicle that allows a higher load capacity.
The word that more than anything else could describe the appearance of the new Focus Wagon is balance. In fact, although remained several elements in common with her sister, 5-door, as characterized by its trapezoidal grille front and rear lights that extend the wheel arch on the Wagon predominates greater sense of proportion is also due to a car body more 20 cm long and 2 cm taller than the 5-door and longer than 9 cm Wagon today.
The third window bigger, the higher the rear, the height is the same as the Wagon current list, and a roof spoiler give less pronounced in the Family Focus looked more relaxed, less tormented sister "conventional". The wide rear window reflects the larger less exasperated the Wagon. The interior of the new Focus Wagon marks a distinct change from the past, due to a bridge less conventional, modern look and futuristic.
The square lines with silver inserts, the large central display with 5-inch screen of the navigation system, the warm tones of the instrumentation and the many buttons on the dashboard effect. In addition, the finish is greatly improved and the top of the bridge, covered with soft material that satisfies both the sight and touch.
Comfortable various storage compartments in the car and the sunglasses holder in front of the rearview mirror. The space is good for 5 people, but it is clear that the shape of the sofa requires some sacrifice on the fifth passenger. Compared to the 5-door is more spacious luggage compartment and, although not reaching the 503 liters of the previous model, has a capacity of 490 liters which can be expanded to 1,516 liters compared to the previous 1546 liters.
At the wheel of 150 hp 1.6 EcoBoost, the gasoline engine developed by Ford reduce emissions and fuel consumption without sacrificing performance, we appreciate the idea of no uncertainty at low speeds, the thrust acceleration and the highest recovery in relationships. On gasoline direct injection high-pressure, low inertia turbocharger and dual overhead cam variable valve timing.
The head of the Focus Wagon is agile for a car from family because of steering a very ready and a 6-speed manual transmission well connected with the engine and is characterized by the behavior almost sporty. In fact, despite the many electronic systems such as traction control, stability and the system that distributes torque between the drive wheels, the new Ford family allows you to ride safely and controls and only intervene when the car is severely stressed: it is curve can get in and feel the rear extend the trajectory before it is cut the power.
One feature that can entertain the most discerning drivers but can generate a minimum of apprehension in the unfamiliar car driving sport. Good news on the performance front, essentially unchanged from the 5-door, and consumers that Ford says is identical to the sedan requires 6 liters of green runs for 100 km in combined cycle.
