Ford Focus on performance (UK)


* New look for turbocharged flagship Focus ST
* Upgraded interior with premium features
* Priced from £18,250 - £20,850
* Created by Ford TeamRS division

Fast, fun and fabulously good looking, a new version of Ford’s performance flagship Focus goes on sale at dealerships across Great Britain from May 1.

Created by Ford TeamRS, the company’s dedicated performance vehicle arm, the 2008 Focus ST benefits from the new exterior and interior styling changes introduced across the rest of the Focus line-up earlier this year. Importantly though, while offering new technologies and features, the car’s well-honed dynamics remain untouched.

At the heart of the matter is the familiar 225 PS, 2.5-litre turbocharged five-cylinder Duratec engine. Powerful, and accompanied by a suitably sporty soundtrack, this powerhouse delivers a potential 150mph top speed in tandem with 0-62mph acceleration in just 6.8 seconds.

Indeed, as a measure of this car’s ability, a standard production Focus ST set a segment-leading record time of 8 minutes 35 seconds around the Nordschleife circuit at the famed Nurburgring.

This sort of achievement requires more than just brute power and the Focus ST remains one of the sharpest handling cars in its class. In fact, the ST may well be the definitive choice for enthusiastic drivers who also demand comfort around town and an array of subtle suspension enhancements ensures this is still the case.

A powerful braking system is top of this list while Electronic Stability Programme (ESP) and Traction Control are now standard on all versions.

The Focus ST has always provided lots of choice and the range retains its simple ST, ST-2 and ST-3 trim grades and three or five-door hatchback bodystyles. It is priced from £18,250 - £20,850.

Every Focus ST boasts 18-inch five-spoke alloy wheels, sports styling, body-hugging Recaro sports seats, a unique sports steering wheel and upgraded instrumentation. New to this generation of ST are the 'Ford Power' starter button and Easyfuel capless refuelling system. Upgrading to ST-2 adds a Sony audio system, bi-xenon lights, LED rear lights and Quickclear heated windscreen while the ST-3 includes an in-dash six CD player plus full leather trim.

In common with other members of the 2008 Focus family, a range of high-tech options can be specified. Among the list is a Tyre Deflation Detection System, a new audio connectivity module for external devices like Bluetooth, voice control and navigation systems plus various infotainment options including an affordable sat nav system with SD card slot.

Combining bold looks with a thrilling driving experience and numerous new features, Ford’s new and improved Focus ST is the definitive hot hatch.

SVT stands for special vehicle team. Ford Focus SVT is indeed a one of a kind vehicle, specially made to give you maximum driving satisfaction. This vehicle offers more performance than other Ford Focus models as it uses specially tuned version of the 2 L DOHC Zetec I-4 engine. The regular Zetec engine gives off only 130 hp at 5,300 rpm and achieves 135 lb.-ft. of torque at 4,500 rpm. The SVT engine on the other hand, generates a thrilling 170 horses at 7000 rpm and delivers a torque of 145 lb-ft at 5500 rpm. The SVT's improved 4 cylinder in-line DOHC front engine FWD is matched with a 6-speed manual transmission. This transmission provides a greater range of gears that allows you to control engine speed precisely.

The Focus SVT was available from 2002 until 2004. It is sold both in US as well as in Europe where it was sold as the Focus ST170. For the 2003 year model, a five-door version was available. It is based on the Focus ZX5 body style and works just as excellent as other Ford Focus SVT cars. The production of the Ford Focus SVT was however discontinued after the 2004 Focus SVT since it high-horsepower cars such as the SVT would be expensive. But the Focus SVT was not totally lost. The 2005 Ford Focus model-line up includes the new ST trim that adopts the SVT's suspension and uses similar well-bolstered seats. When it comes to performance, the ST trim and other 2005 Ford Focus models aren't far enough from the SVT with its newest line of engine that delivers more power and torque than Ford Focus' previous engines.

If you’re wondering which car of the many vehicles on the road is the best for your back-to-school teen, read on for the answer.

Every year the Kelly Blue Print (KBB) people look at a series of eco friendly vehicles, and determine which is the MOST popular with the back to school crowd. This year the seemingly under-the-radar Ford Focus made it to the number one spot.

This mild but sporty sedan gets on average 24 mpg in the city and 35 mpg on the highway and let’s face it, what parent wants to see their kid in a Mustang or other muscle type car? Not many. This car will get your teen to school moderately safe and sound and in style. Not too mention conserve some fuel.


The Ford Focus (MPG Rating: 24 City/35 Highway) 14,300 USD

I can’t believe that something from Ford can go this cheap. Indeed, tough economic times have forced Ford to go green and as of late. It’s better late than not joining in the green car craze at all. Meanwhile, the Ford Focus comes in a 2.0-liter four cylinder engine, while looking like a sporty sedan that you can bring anytime and anywhere. This is arguably Ford’s most fuel-saving car in years and if you have some change to spare, this one is one great pickup.

audi r8 v10

The ultimate version of Audi’s R8 is hardly a secret any more, but a few more details of the flagship model have emerged recently. Confirming our earlier news story, the V10 engine will be completely new and not related to the V10s in either the RS6 or the Lamborghini Gallardo. Instead it is essentially a development of the high-revving V8 from the RS4 and R8.

Engineers tell us that this new engine will shade BMW’s 500bhp M Power V10 – as found in the M5 and M6 – in terms of outright power and revs. Considering BMW’s figures, that means the new 5.2-litre engine should be good for around 520bhp and rev beyond 8250rpm.

We’ll have to wait a little longer than expected before we get to drive the V10 R8 though, as Audi has decided to delay its introduction due to the higher than expected demand for the current R8. We don’t expect the V10 version to be released until late in 2008, but from what we’re hearing, it should be worth the extra wait.

It’s not rumors! That’s some shots of new Audi R8 V10 powered version. Audi stated that the R8 will soon V10 production status after some initial fears that the project can only be cut by a total of heat problems.

Last week, the ever present Nurburgring experts Bridge to Gantry spotted the R8 V10 do some laps, today we have thank for some up-close-and-personal photos of this powered-beast V10.

The audiphiles among us will immediately spot the missing “fin” under the headlamps, while the rear is missing two of the horizontal fins. Far beyond the two larger exhaust pipes (instead of two dual exhaust) and the side air intakes balls have a greater need for the cooling of the engine.


The 2009 Audi R8 V10 has officially been spied.

The very first prototype of the v10 version of the Audi R8 was spotted on the Nürburgring & oh my do we like what we see!

The styling changes are quite evident & quite sexy as well. As of yet, we are not privy to the car’s final horsepower rating, but we’re expecting some explosive numbers to leak out in the following weeks.

Man, can you just imagine picking up your blind date in this beauty?!


The Audi R8 V10 was named as the 2010 World Performance Car at the World Car of the Year Awards ceremony at the New York Auto Show. This is the second time that the R8 has won the World Performance Car award: the V8-powered R8 took this award in 2008.

The World Car Awards jurors observed that: “In the opinion of many on the World Car Awards jury, Audi has at long last satisfied our hunger for a street car that lives up to the excitement of the original Le Mans series-dominating R8 LMP1 race car.”

Developed jointly with quattro GmbH, the Audi R8 V10 is powered by a 5.2 liter direct injection ten-cylinder engine which develops 386 kW (525 hp), enabling it to sprint from zero to 100 km/h (62.14 mph) in just 3.9 seconds and then to a top speed of 316 km/h (196.35 mph). It features Audi technologies such as quattro permanent all-wheel drive, a lightweight aluminum body and the innovative all-LED lights.

This is the second World Performance Car award win for the Audi R8: the original V8-powered version won the same award in 2008. Whether a customer chooses an R8 with a V8 or a V10 engine, they will get a World Performance Car award winner.

This is also the third Word Performance Car award for Audi in the five years that the award has been on offer: the RS 4 was named as the 2007 World Performance Car.

The truly global nature of the World Car jury is evidence that Audi is hitting the performance car sweet spot of car lovers around the world. [Source: Audi]
