I've got a 2015 Focus with the 998cc Ecoboost with 140hp. I've driven many a fast car, but the Ford EcoBoost 3 cylinder is an amazing unit! Not incredibly fast, but it pulls like a train. It's a surprisingly good car, and it's a lot of fun in the bends.

[@LukeBeasto]

Its pulls like a train for what it is but the fuel economy is crap for a 1.0! 37 around town and 43 on highway!

@@AutoTopnl And yet Ford seem to mess them up all the time. Some of the ones in early test drives had wobbly center armrests, but I haven't noticed that in showroom cars at all, everything seemed well put together. I know what you mean, though, I'm a translator and I can tell you that this was a sloppy job on the translator's part. However, at least it's something that can be updated easily. Great video, btw. I love the way odd cylinder engines sound, and this one is no exception.

[@pummyy]

whats ur feedback after 1 year of ownership ?

[@alexandruzugravu1768]

@@pummyy So far, so good, didn't have any problems. I have only 13k kms with it, but I am really happy with my decision looking back. I have the 1.5 150hp engine with automatic transmission and I think it's the best combination. Fuel consumption can be all over the place, from 5% if you drive constantly at around 70-80 km/h, to 7% at highway speeds, to 12-13% in busy city traffic. Happy I didn't go for ST line trim, as I wouldn't have liked for the ride to be any stiffer than this, and the car is still very stable on twisty roads, even at speed over 100km/h. Winter package with heater seats and wheel is a must have for me in the winter also.

[@webfreakz]

I saw this car at the Ford dealership, I thought it looks really good!

[@skorpiox3467]

I think that majority of people will don’t take this option because not everybody have wireless charging and that option is expensive.. But I love this car

This would be great with the Fiesta ST tune, which I'm sure the aftermarket will come out with eventually. Great video, I think you're the only person who has done a POV of the 1.5T 182HP Focus!

everyone here complaining of aggressive driving 😂 .. its actually pretty tame by our standards.. anyways its always good to have a review where you actually go a bit faster to really experience the car .. since we cant do that while test driving a car before buying froma salon... i really dont like the interior and the console.. it doesnt feel premium at all, way too plasticky and dark..what was ford thinking?? the car is gorgeous on the ontsiede..but the inside feels cheap.. buyers are increasingly buying cars for how they look, every other hatchback i tried looks better on the insinde with chrome details, brushed steel/aluminum etc... a car like this desrver a better interior design!

You shouldnt drive that fast near those houses a kid could easily walk infront of the car and you wouldnt have a chance of stoping in time

[@MrMaxwiki]

I have recently upgraded myself from Golf 4 diesel to the Ford Focus model with petrol 125 HP engine. With Golf 4 we were a great team for 17 years. So it is too early to say what the true value of this new car model is. It will become obvious after years of driving. However, I agree with the review, it feels good both, to see the car from outside and to seat and drive inside. After first week, my personal favorite feature is ... the heated steering wheel. So far I noticed one annoying thing. When activating turn indicator light, the lane departure warning system gets switched on accidentally too.This is because of touching a button located unfortunately on top of the switching bar. I would need some time to develop a personal skill to avoid it. The new Ford Focus is a silicon car, with millions of transistors. I can really feel it, I am not alone when inside. A friend of mine spontaneously said to me: you have got a car like a space ship :-) So what? A good job dear engineers from Cologne and Aachen - and please, do not let me never down on my journey!

[@florianrc919]

Enjoy it, it would probably be the last Focus we'll have. :)

[@danielleroux6490]

I'm sure the wireless charger can be improved over time. I don't really care about that feature, I just want this car, with this manual transmission, and this 1.5l 3-cylinder in the United States!

Half of this video is a rant about a feauture in this car not being desinged well enough but nevertheless a feature that to me at least is totally secondary to the real deal experience of driving a car as an enthusiast.. which has nothing to do with how well my phone would charge wirelessly. This rant is blown out of proportion timewise in this video and is a bit pointless.

@AutoTopNL would you go for real ST or ST-line? I need to pay around 8k EUR more to get ST 2.3 ecoboost - just worried if the sport seats are comfortable for longer travel and the suspension is fine for daily car on 19" inch rims? I plan to buy Kombi version with performance pack but bit worried how it will be for longer travels with kids and wife. Hope the fuel consumption will be not ultra high as well. Below 10 in highways.

I covered everything else too, didn’t I? It’s just so easy to fix, I think it’s weird that it was not noticed during development..

[@JamieR1988]

Having charging cables around your car is annoying and pretty dangerous. So having a wireless charging pad is way better. And if a manufacturer is going to go to the effort of putting one in, they should at least design it properly. He wasn't being immature, he was making a mockery of the designers. You're the immature one who's trying insult someone over the internet.
