Three cylinders and mild hybrid power might sound feeble on paper, but it works really well in what remains a cheeringly fun family hatchback that has learned some more modern tricks. Ford Focus ST-Line Vignale 1.0 Ecoboost MHEV UK first drive review
The Focus’s exterior refresh gets it off to a good start. The car has quite a bold and appealing front end with a slightly bluffer nose and grille, although the radiator grille- and bumper styling changes depending on model version.
Elsewhere, the ‘ST-Line Vignale’-spec sports seats are a little hard and short in the base, but the car’s ergonomics are otherwise good, and the new digital instruments are bright and readable. Those qualities marry ideally with a chassis that loves to carry a bit of speed, and still handles with true tenacity, incisive balance and outstanding cornering poise. There is a little bit of bite to the Focus’s low-speed ride but very little irritating jiggle or harshness, and just a gentle background rumble over coarser surfaces.
