The 1.5-litre EcoBoost under the bonnet delivers a seriously satisfying performance. With around 150 bhp (in many trims) and good torque, it’s nimble off the line and doesn’t hang around when you want it to stretch its legs. The automatic gearbox smooths everything out — you get strong pull without needing to fuss with manual shifting. Great for city traffic or relaxing motorway cruising. Sharp Handling with Real Comfort One of the Focus’s strongest cards has always been its chassis, and this version doesn’t disappoint. It’s poised, the steering is tight and responsive, and around corners it feels confidently planted. At the same time, the ride is cushioned enough that you’re not constantly jolted over bumps. Titanium — Looks, Feel & Kit That Impress Titanium trim does the Focus some serious favours. Chrome detailing, upgraded alloys, ambient or premium interior touches — you can feel the difference. The infotainment (large touchscreen, SYNC-2 in earlier models), good safety kit, and comfort-oriented features make this hatch feel like something above the norm. Practical Enough While Still Fun You get a lot of hatchback usefulness here: five doors, a decent boot (though not class-leading), solid everyday usability. Fuel economy is reasonable for what you get — while the EcoBoost isn’t frugal as a tiny hybrid, it hits a good middle ground between performance and reasonable consumption.
