Engine Capability
The 2013 Ford Focus ST will be powered by Fords award-winning 2.0-litre EcoBoost engine that is capable of 184kW with a maximum torque figure of 350Nm. These figures are up from the previous 166kW and 320Nm. The EcoBoost engine displays the power of a larger displacement engine with the fuel efficiency of a smaller engine which is achieved with the combination of high pressure direct injection, low-inertia turbocharging, Twin-independent Variable Cam Timing (Ti-VCT) along with revised air intake and a performance exhaust system. The 2.0-litre EcoBoost engine is mated to a six-speed manual transmission.
The 2013 Ford Focus ST will be available in a range of colours including the signature Tangerine Scream along with Spirit Blue, Race Red, Panther Black, Frozen White and Moondust Silver.
