Ford Focus ST review – performance and 0-60 time

The engine feels strong and acceleration is comfortable. This car has more control than before.

The 2.3-litre engine in the ST provides good power and torque, which lets it have strong performance. If you want, you can get the Performance Pack, which will help you launch the car cleanly. The ST will then go from 0 to 62mph in 5.7 seconds, which is pretty fast.

Actually, the word ‘scrabble’ is unfair because it says that traction was bad and cars could not go fast. But actually it is not true. When we turn the car, we will be able to go fast. And if the road is straight, we will also be able to go fast.

But sometimes our car can fall down so you should pay attention to your car too.For more detailed performance statistic.

The diesel model is slower than the petrol model. It still goes from 0 to 62 mph in 7.6 seconds and tops out at 137 mph, but it gets better gas mileage. The diesel model gets 58.7 mpg combined, while the petrol model only gets 35.8 mpg. Also, you can see more details ford focus st 0-60.

Ford has been trying to make its hot hatchbacks sound different. They do this by making the engine note sound good. The petrol engine in this car makes a noise that is more induction than exhaust. It sounds pretty real.

Sport mode gives you more power sooner. The car also responds faster to your commands. But the old car was too powerful and unruly. Now there is a new engine that makes the car pull hard from low down but in a more linear way.

You need around 2000rpm on the clock before it starts pulling hard, but even above that it’s not completely lag-free. So even though it doesn’t have as much outright power as some other cars, the ST lacks little in terms of straight-line pace.

There are three driving modes in the ST. Normal mode is quiet and soft so it can be used for town driving or when you take your family in the car. This mode also helps fuel economy.

You have to push down on an electronic switch in order to turn on Sport mode, but it gives you sharper throttle response, more steering weighting and it changes the engine note. If you are at full throttle, the ST will hold gears for longer to build speed.

Custom mode allows you to change the throttle, exhaust and steering settings. But it is not as intuitive as some other cars that let you customize the car’s responses more.

You can tell that Ford has done a lot of work on this car because it doesn’t only look strong on the outside but also on the inside. The cabin looks premium and it also feels premium. And the technology in the car is up-to-date too.
