subject: 115hp Ford Focus 1.6 Tdci Titanium (2011) [print this page] With the new Ford Focus is up to 120 markets high throw eyes. The brand has no water to the wine made to the car all the flavors to satisfy. We drove the newcomer with the 1.6-liter diesel savings on board.
The Focus is a (world car), which in many markets souls must try to win, it's no wimp became a colorless type, made in only one configuration to but easy to satisfy the tastes of all those motorists in the 120 markets in which they will operate. Ford of course varies freely with equipment and lilacs to each area of its new Focus a very attractive proposition to potential. The look is more restrained than we are accustomed to its predecessor. The design looks a bit less risky, which is streamlined and things like the rear eyes as anonymous.
The Focus, however, certainly weather improved. Especially when it comes to driving quality gives the Focus a fearsome beating the competition. Ford to his position obliged him to give above average handling and does so. The suspension filters out bumps in the asphalt road, without the Focus a weekly car makes. Instead, he offers in his handling of the right mix of comfort and dynamics. With a penchant for the dynamic, though. In turn, the Ford does not first turn, but he turns without drama. Not least because the application of Torque Vectoring Control. The system distributes the torque as well as possible over the front wheels and ensures optimum grip and high maneuverability.
Excellent control
The Focus feels stable and maneuverable to. It is the acclaimed control got better and who has remarkably not the negative side effects that an electrically powered system typically suffers. The steering is very direct and precise steering movements are immediately followed.
The 1.6-liter diesel engine delivers an output of 115 hp and is coupled to a start-stop system. That is rather prominent. Especially striking the engine after you have pressed the clutch pedal, is not silent. In the test car works also not good. The consumption of 6.0 liters per 100 kilometers can a little down.
The dashboard looks through the application of a harder type of plastic quality is not great, but it looks by its unusual design very original. The design is certainly refreshing. In the beginning it takes you by the special design effort controls all blindly to find, so busy is the dashboard studded with buttons, you must really understand. The seats give excellent support and you can simply a nice place at the wheel create for yourself, though the seat a bit high for sport to continue.
The test is performed in Focus 1.6 TDCi Titanium trim. ESP, ABS, climate control, adaptive cruise control, electric windows all around, it's all on and on. Ford Focus also brings in a number of safety to the C-segment that we know of many luxury cars, such as parking, blind spot detection and a device that detects that you inadvertently changing lanes.
