Origins of the Ford Focus
First launched in the late 1990s, the Ford Focus has become one of the most popular cars in the UK. It has won numerous awards including 'the best family car' and has also won the Car of the Year award in Europe and America. Made by the Ford Motor Company, the Ford Focus was put together to be comfortable, safe, practical and durable as well as modern and fashionable. The initial generation incorporated 1.4 to 2 litre engine sizes and five-speed and six-speed transmission boxes. Four versions existed in the beginning - a saloon, estate and two hatchbacks. Later in 2004 a coupe cabriolet was launched, designed to surpass the Audi A3 and Golf. The car interiors were adapted and a number of the specifications upgraded with options like alloy wheels, sports suspension, sports seats and cruise control. Recent changes to Ford Focus models mean it's still a champion in the market and boasts a dual clutch system, airbags, leather seats, a revised power steering pump and FordEasyFuel technology.
