The Focus first made its debut in 1998 and has been a staple of the Ford lineup ever since. During its time on the market, there have been a total of four generations. The latest of these was unveiled in 2019.

The model quickly became one the best-selling models in the Ford family, as a testament to its status as a modern icon.

The model was offered in a number of trim levels that would be familiar to any modern Ford owner. These consisted of the base S, followed by the SE, SEL, and top-tier Titanium.

There were also the highly recognizable ST and RS models that were high-performance variants made to compete with models like the VW Golf GTI and R respectively.

Other competition has included the Opel/Vauxhall Astra, Mazda3, and even the Focus’ smaller sibling, the Ford Fiesta.

There have been a variety of engine options for the model over its long stay on the market. These have included both petrol and diesel engines.

For the later generations, petrol engines typically ranged from a 1.0 L inline-3 to the 2.3 L inline-4 that is found in the RS versions. Diesel options were far more limited, consisting of the choice of either a 1.5 L or a 2.0 L inline-4. Most modern engines were fitted with turbochargers.

These were mated with a variety of automatic transmissions, ranging between a 6-speed and an 8-speed. There has also always been a 6-speed manual version offered for driving enthusiasts.

In 2022, Ford sadly announced that the Focus would be retired by 2025. The main reasoning for this is so that the American carmaker can focus more on crossover (like the Focus-based Puma) and electric vehicles.
