2024 Ford Focus ST Edition | POV driving

[@nicolagabriel8520]

I think I saw all the video on KZbin about this car while waiting for mine to arrive

[@KnifeFella]

I just ordered one for 32750 euros, at this price seems a good option for a brand new hot hatch

[@themariolino355]

Normal ST?

@@alhusseinhassan1326 I'm from Romania and Ford has a special promotion

[@doganakkoc8764]

@@KnifeFella What do you mean special promotion for €32.750 ? I work @Fords LommelProvingGround in Belgium even with personal discount with 22% for Ford Focus ST its around 40K with track pack normal price cost around €52.000 without personal/ford discount. Did you traded with your old car or something ? it doesnt seem add up, the price that you mentioned is for second hand marked not brand new... I just bought a Focus ST AT clipper 2022 with 14.000Km with all options that cost me €38.000 so I traded mine Fiesta ST 2020 they gave 18K for that, basicly Focus AT Clipper came 20K For me. (Ford EU biggest manufacture is in Germany Keulen) 2 Hour drive from where I live. Its impossible that Romania Ford Dealers give alot of discounts or Special promotion that you mentioned its against Fords policy for profits.

Does focus st has higher road noise than golf gti?

[@mikerelvas]

Such a nice car!

[@janvisek5461]

Hezky, moc hezky. :) Vuubec by mi nevadil misto moji Cupry. Dobre to tam znam, pres Hostoun do Pavlova jsem jezdil do prace. :)

[@janvisek5461]

Jeste se zeptam jak moc tvrdy to je na tyhle sileny cesty, co jsou mezi Hostouni a Belokama? :D

[@DrivingCars]

tvrdý to úplně není, v týhle konkrétní verzi ST je KW varianta 3 s nastavitelnou vyskou, tuhosti a odskokem. Respektive cim rychleji se jede, tim lip ten podvozek funguje. v centru prahy na kostkach to tvrdy je. Kazdopadne pocitove to nejede na 280 koni :(

[@janvisek5461]

​@@DrivingCars Diky za odpoved.:) ten vykon by mi asi nevadil, nejsem zadnej zavodnik. Cilil bych stejne na predfacelift a asi v automatu, protoze hodne Praha a kolony a tak.. ten jsem koukal, ze jsi ridil taky - nasel jsem video z okruhu. Jako daily na dojizdeni Slany-Praha, obcas nejaka Ostrava, obcas motani v Praze v kolonach a obcas vyjizdka bys to doporucil? Nechci od toho super komfort ani zadnej brutalni vykon. Proste tak, abych se dobre svezl, ale uplne mi nechcipaly zada. :)) Libi se mi to auto celkove, zvuk a ze to zas tak casto nepotkas. :) Diky za pripadnou zpetnou vazbu. :) Honza

[@adriansokol7687]

Super video👍🏻 kolko to teoreticky prejde na plnu nadrz ?

[@DrivingCars]

Díky! Nepamatuju si, bohužel, ale pamatuju si, že na plnou nádrž to zvládne 5 kol na Nürburgringu.

[@Elia1974-CA]

La Focus ST mk4 è un'auto eccellente. Il suo motore è piu robusto della Focus RS mk3. È un auto che non registra proboemi al motore oppure alla trasmissione. Il motore, dopo una preparazione, raggiunge facilmente i 400 cavalli e 600 nm di coppia. Vedasi Pumaspeed, Revo, Mountune o Dreamscience. Suggerisco Drealscience DS Ultima da 315 bhp per non stressare molto il motore. Suggerisco Royal Purple 0W40 rispetto al normale Castrol 0W30

[@DrivingCars]

Nemám dlouhodobé zkušenosti, ale jsem zklamaný z dynamiky sériového auta. To auto je skvělé na brzdách a v zatáčkách, ale v přímce je pomalé. Zvýšit výkon opravdu potřebuje.

[@LatecoBraxatoris]

Krásny 👍👍👍

[@SamuX]

Where is the centering lane assist button?

[@Fractal379]

who needs one? 😂

[@SamuX]

​@@Fractal379 In theory it is included in the co-pilot. It was a curiosity

[@ashlermusic]

It is located at the end of the blinker control. You can see it at 6:57

[@SamuX]

​​@@ashlermusicnope, this is different. This is called lane keeping assist. Maybe because this car is manual.

[@M1naZz]

You have a new style of dashboard... witch patch you have install on this sync

[@DrivingCars]

it's car exactly from the factory. did nothing to it.

[@SJKShift]

Is it really 280hp? In Poland there is problem that in reality 280hp turns out to be 200-230hp

[@DrivingCars]

don't know, but it feels slower

[@SJKShift]

@@DrivingCars ok, so that issue is probably in all countries in the EU…

[@DrivingCars]

looks like

[@harrysamwel3665]

There have been dyno runs on stock ST mk4’s.. on 91 octane they usually make around 260hp and around 280hp with 98 octane.. Can of course vary per car.

[@harrysamwel3665]

The reason Focus ST feels slower than other similar cars is Fords engine tune and gearing ratio. Gearing ratio isn’t much you can do about. But get a stage 1 tune and this car will feel ALOT better.

[@joseleXR1000]

Estoy pensando en pedir uno. Que tal las suspensiones KW???

[@DrivingCars]

KW je tužší při klidné jízdě, ale skvělé v rychlém tempu. ten podvozek potřebuje rychlost

[@alexchuquiESP]

One question, has the exhaust been changed or does it sound like that from the factory?

[@DrivingCars]

no, it's stock, but in interior you can hear fake sound from speakers

[@alexchuquiESP]

@@DrivingCars Yeah but that sound on the tunnel, thats not fake hahaha, thats why i asked about the exhaust, amazing sound

[@DrivingCars]

yes, in the tunnel it's not fake. sounds good from outside :-)

[@fpv_kol7210]

I like it! What did you think about It??

[@DrivingCars]

me too, the only bad thing is that the car is "not so fast" in straight line.

[@Cess875]

​@@DrivingCars does not seems to have 280cv? I drove one unit and think the same.

[@doganakkoc8764]

@@Cess875 I have Ford Focus ST Clipper with automatic (facelift model) and I can tell ya its tinybit slower then te new MK8 Golf R wich has 328Hp and 420Nm also little bit slower then the MK3 Focus RS 350Hp and 440Nm (lets say 1 car length at dragtest) it feels slower because of the smooth power delivery but its fast for what it is believe me :D

[@alhusseinhassan1326]

what do u think about the new digital cluster? the old one looks more sporty ? could you please make a video showing all funktion in the new digital cluster? i think there's an option to change how it looks like (classic view) there're no vids about it at all on youtube.... thanks

[@ChrisTheTransporter]

Saw the new cluster today in a normal ST X, looks very slick imho. You can simply change between modern and classic looks in the settings. There is actually a video from Sam A on KZbin where he presents the new ST Edition where you can also see the „classic“ view. It‘s a bit more subtle than the „old“ one, which I personally like.

Get the Focus better all around car than the type R, get a Mountune M330 remap and its a lot quicker than a type R, golf R etc

this car have 280 HP?

Dobrý den,měl bych dotaz na ty rukavice. Má to podle vás smysl na béžné ježdění normálního auta nic sportovního?

[@DrivingCars]

Asi úplně nemá, já to mám hlavně kvůli tomu, aby na náhledové fotce bylo poznat, že je to video ode mě. Standardně si beru závodní rukavice (ne tyhle kožený) jen do závoďáku a na semišový volanty. Má to ale svoje výhody, pokud se vám potí ruce, tak potom volant v těch rukavicích neklouže.
