Pictures of the updated Ford Focus II with the motor show in Frankfurt
One of the most interesting vehicles for the Russians, who was in Frankfurt, stood on a bench Ford. And now it will not Kuga crossover concept or Verve, but only on the restyling of one of the models. But what - Ford Focus, the leader of sales in Russia.
«Martin Smith’s design team has updated the look of the car using the« kinetic design », improved its interior and features. It looks perfect next to the new Mondeo in the updated model series. The new Ford Focus will be on the market at the end of 2007 », - said President of Ford Europe John Fleming.
I must say that the Focus has changed considerably, not only outside but inside. In particular, a new dashboard that makes it easy reading. Now, measuring instruments, as well as all governments have the red lights. Improved ergonomics government and the two new audio system, air-conditioning. Versions equipped with high-level center console with a new design (the option for the version of Trend and part of the sports package) that supports style «kinetic design».
Since the beginning of 2008 the new Ford Focus will be offered with a transmission, Ford PowerShift. This entirely new 6-speed with two clutches. Transmission Ford PowerShift contains two simultaneously working with the interim transmission shafts, each of which is equipped with its own «wet» clutch. Due to the chosen configuration, the intermediate shafts - one contains the odd gears pinion (1, 3 and 5) and the other - even (2, 4 and 6) - inclusion of the next transfer can be prepared by pre-selecting the appropriate gear during the movement and transfer of full power .
Most likely, the assembly restaylingovogo Ford Focus will start in Russia at the end of this year or early next year.
