2008 Ford Focus (ST), will include the Mondeo headlights and new foglight housings.
Four images of the Ford Focus ST were released by Ford when they sent out press information to print media about the 2008 Ford Focus. We will provide all details once the official press release is available through the internet grape vines, but for now we will be relying on the information leaked from Auto Express or Autovisie.
This mid-cycle facelift is not going to be anything earth-shaking. 2008 Ford Focus ST will have the new Mondeo headlights and new foglight housings. It also features a fancy new honeycombe grille. The new Focus will also have larger side-view mirrors, and LED-taillights. Ford uses different fabrics inside, and the instrument cluster got a little makeover.
ST enthusiasts should be happy that the 2.5-liter 5-cylinder turbo engine is unchanged. It’s both a joy that this engine is still in great shape and a sad fact that Ford hasn’t been able extract more power from it. It should take less than 6 seconds to go from 0 to 100 km/h and still reach the 245 km/h speed limit.
The new Focus range will be available in dealerships by early 2008, with the ST and Coupe Coupe-Cabrio following in Spring 2008.
