2013 Ford Focus ST Review, Specs, Pictures

2013 Ford Focus ST Release date, Price, Interior, Exterior, Engine. - The Focus ST is also a work in progress. Ford invited us to Belgium to witness the late stages of the car’s development. What’s left to do at this point is the fine tuning, the detail work that separates a great car from one that’s merely good. Under the hood lies Ford’s direct injected, 2.0 liter turbocharged four cylinder, bookended by redesigned intake and exhaust systems. U.S.market output figures have not been announced it doesn’t go on sale here until late 2012 but the engine makes 247 horsepower and 266 pound feet of torque in Europe.

The new ST’s tiller will be very close to that of the old car’s, says Capito. “I like a simple steering wheel. It’s something I have to keep the designers away from.”  The wheel is connected to a variable ratio rack that is slower in the middle and quicker on the ends. (Common to Porsches, this is the only such application in Ford’s current lineup.) In between is electric power assist, which is the heart of the car’s torque steer compensation system. When the system senses an imbalance of torque to the front wheels, it reduces the steering assist in the direction the steering wheel would normally be yanked. The result, we’re told, is similar to that of the Revo­ nuckle strut from the previous Focus RS (a 300 hp Focus also never seen stateside) but without the extra cost and weight of  the advanced strut design.

2013 Ford Focus ST is the production version of the new car that uses the concept of a five-door. 2013 Ford Focus ST release date early next year. 2013 Ford Focus ST also make his debut to the public at the 2011 Frankfurt Motor Show. Exterior and interior design show with a performance car that is awaited by fans around the world. Especially for customers in the European region also have the option to resemble a stylish wagon version of the Focus ST, which will be the release date as a five door models this year.

So how does this dolphin swim?... At this point in its development, quite well. For ­comparison, Ford has assembled the previous Focus RS, a Renault Mégane RS, and a Volks­wagen GTI. All are driven around the high speed oval, on various re creations of worldwide roads, and on the handling track. The ST’s true bogey is the 200 hp GTI, which is the bestselling hot hatch in numerous markets and an enthusiast icon.

The hot hatch hierarchy has long been capped with the GTI as king, and for good reason. Of all the vehicles offered in the segment, it has perhaps the best blend of the many facets we love about these cars, and it's the one that we'd absolutely open our wallets for year after year, generation after generation. So when a new kid comes to town, it doesn't completely matter how it stacks up against other competitors in the segment if you want to dethrone the king, you have to beat the GTI at the very game it created.

Enter the 2013 Ford Focus ST, a car that Ford says will run circles around every other hot hatch available in the United States. The Blue Oval is out for blood with this one, and for good reason. After our first experience with the car overseas, we must admit, it's damn good. 2013 Ford Focus ST will be sold for the price range reaches $ 16,500 – $ 39,200 based on current exchange rates. Price is of course can be customized with shipping to the place of destination, as well as the option in accordance with the wishes of the buyers.
