For the past 15 years, the Ford Focus has remained one of the most popular compact cars on the market. The upcoming 2015 Ford Focus is destined to remain at the top of its class. Benefiting from a new face-lift and an improved chassis, the upcoming Focus promises to reward the owner with an exceptional driving experience. As expected, the new model will also be available with more high-tech features than ever before.

New Available Engine
Although the current engine in the Ford Focus is very formidable, a new engine will also be introduced for the 2015 model year. While the official performance numbers have yet to be released, the 1.0-liter EcoBoost engine should deliver a fine balance of efficiency and power. Many automotive experts believe that the highway fuel economy of the Focus will easily exceed 40 miles-per-gallon on the highway.

To the delight of many driving purists, the new EcoBoost engine will be mated with a six-speed manual gearbox. Not only is the manual transmission engineered to enhance the response of the engine, but it also makes the Focus a much more exciting daily-driver. Ford engineers ...
... are not currently planning to offer the 1.0-liter EcoBoost motor with an automatic transmission.

SE Sport Package
Drivers who are seeking a sporty driving experience will love the new SE Sport Package. The available SE Sport Package will give the 2015 Focus a more aggressive curb appeal. While onlookers will certainly admire the sporty appearance of the body kit, the driver will get to enjoy the improved handling provided by the sport package. The tuned suspension system and 17-inch wheels will help to minimize the amount of body roll during cornering. If the buyer opts for the dual-clutch automatic gearbox, the paddle shifters can be used to extract the most performance out of the engine.

Revamped Exterior Styling
The front fascia of the 2015 Ford Focus is strikingly similar to that of the Ford Fusion. The new LED accents enhance the car’s appearance and the on-road safety of the driver. The newly-designed hood gives the Fusion an even sleeker profile on the road. A smoother trunk lid and a set of eye-catching taillights highlight the rear of the Focus. Shoppers can choose the 2015 Ford Focus in the form of a hatchback or sedan.

Interior
The well-designed interior of the 2015 Ford Focus can be outfitted with a number of high-tech features. Every trim of the Focus now includes a rear-view camera as standard equipment. The arrival of blind-spot monitoring and cross-traffic alert makes the new Focus a much safer vehicle on the road. Ford’s highly-touted SYNC technology will now come in all Focus trims. The voice-activated system enables the driver to easily make phone calls, utilize the navigation system, and operate the audio system. The heated steering wheel will certainly come in handy during the peak of winter.

Enhanced Steering Feel
Some Ford Focus owners have expressed a desire for a more communicative steering system. The electric power steering system on the 2015 Ford Focus has been tuned to give the driver more feedback than in the outgoing model.
