Ford Focus is one of the most popular C-class cars in Russia. This car is loved for its cost and high reliability. Often on the streets you can find a hatchback and sedans of this model. However, today we will pay attention to a rarer (and at the same time very common in Europe) version - the universal. So, what is the Ford Focus station wagon? Photos, review and specifications are further in our article.
Appearance
Cars in this body have always been considered workhorses, and therefore many manufacturers did not pay attention to design. However, an exception to the rule was the Ford Focus station wagon, a photo of which the reader can see in our article.
The appearance of the car is very memorable and expressive. So, externally, this car resembles the “Aston Martin” thanks to the trapezoidal chrome grille and slanting lensed headlights.
Also, the "Focus" is distinguished by a pronounced lateral line and muscular wheel arches. The car looks very impressive and no worse than a hatchback.
Dimensions, clearance, weight
Compared to other bodies, the Ford Focus station wagon is the longest in the lineup. So, its dimensions are as follows. The length is 4.56 meters, the width is 1.83, the height is 1.5 meters. In addition to being long, this car is considered one of the highest in the class. Because of this, aerodynamics suffer a little. The ground clearance is 15.5 centimeters. Curb weight, depending on the installed engine, is from 1.3 to 1.36 tons.
According to reviews, the Ford Focus station wagon was not created for roads outside the paved surface. Moreover, the machine is difficult to overcome pits. Often you can hook the "belly", overtaking on another bump. The reason for this is a very long base and not too high ground clearance.
Ford Focus: Salon
The interior design is no less intricate and futuristic than the exterior. So, the interior of the wagon Ford Focus has the features of a sports car. What is the three-spoke steering wheel with numerous buttons and a V-shaped center console with "gills" of air ducts and a digital display in the middle. The instrument panel includes two “wells” and a small on-board computer screen at the top. According to reviews, the Ford Focus station wagon has a nice panel illumination. It is quite informative and readable, both at night and during the day.
Another advantage of the station wagon is the presence of free space. Inside it is very spacious, if you compare this body with the same hatchback or sedan. Together with the cabin space, the volume of the luggage compartment has also increased. So, the car is able to take “on board” up to 476 liters of luggage. But that is not all. The manufacturer has provided the function of folding the seatbacks. The result is a flat floor and a cargo area of one and a half thousand liters.
Universal "Ford Focus": specifications
The range of powertrains is the same as for sedans, as well as hatchbacks. The base for the station wagon is the same familiar 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine. What are the basic Ford Focus station wagon specifications? Its power is 105 horsepower. It is aggregated by a five-speed manual gearbox. Acceleration to hundreds takes 12.5 seconds. The maximum speed is 187 kilometers per hour. According to reviews, this engine is the most economical in terms of fuel consumption. So, for a hundred in the combined cycle, it consumes about six liters of the 95th.
An intermediate in the line is a 1.6-liter unit from the Ecobust series. What specifications does this Ford Focus station wagon have? The maximum power of this engine is 125 horsepower. Here, mechanics or a “robot machine” can be used here as a gearbox. In the first case, acceleration to one hundred takes 11.1 seconds, in the second - 0.8 seconds later. Maximum speed is also slightly different. With mechanics, the Ford Focus station wagon can accelerate to 196 kilometers per hour. On a robotic box - only until 193. The fuel consumption of a 125-horsepower engine also differs depending on the installed box. So, the mechanics turned out to be more economical - with it the car spends the same six liters per hundred. But with a robot, the car spends 0.4 liters more in the same operating conditions.
Ford 2.0
Prior to restyling, the Ford Focus station wagon was equipped with a two-liter Ecobust engine with a capacity of 150 horsepower. This engine is paired only with a robotic gearbox. Acceleration to hundreds takes 9.5 seconds. And the maximum speed is exactly 200 kilometers per hour. At the same time, the motor is quite economical for its volume. For a hundred in mixed mode, he spends 6.4 liters of fuel. But unfortunately, on the new versions of the Ford Focus station wagons, the two-liter engine is not available. Diesel engines are also inaccessible to the Russian buyer - you have to be content only with imported versions from abroad that were previously in use.
