2013 Focus ST

2013 Focus ST

All-new for the 2013 model year, the Focus ST brings the “Sport Technologies” badge to customers worldwide for the first time. For America, the sporty EcoBoost-powered hot hatchback is the spiritual successor to the fine handling 2002-04 SVT Focus, and the high-performance flagship of Ford’s new Focus model lineup. Developed by the Ford Global Performance Vehicles Group – which includes the Ford Special Vehicle Team (SVT) in the United States and Team RS in Europe – ST is offered only in practical five-door form in North America. Motivation comes from Ford’s turbocharged 2.0-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder engine that produces 252 horsepower and 270 foot-pounds of torque in “overboost” mode, which adds 15 extra foot pounds for 15 seconds under full throttle. The only transmission available is a six-speed manual.
