The Focus has been lauded for its sophisticated handling and fun-to-drive characteristics. A 2.0L I-4 Duratec engine and 5-speed manual are standard on the Focus ZX4. An optional 4-speed automatic is available. The 151hp ST equipped with the Duratec 23 is the sole sport model for the Focus range. This handsome 4-door sedan is an excellent value in a compact package. Optional leather seats are an unusual luxury option. ABS, and side impact airbags are available safety features. A CD/MP3 audio system is standard.

What Changed:

Updated exterior and interior styling. New standard Duratec 20 engine. Simplified trim levels. ZX4 ST with a 151 hp, Duratec 23 replaces the SVT in the Focus lineup.
