Looking forward to getting a test drive. The regular Focus petrol I drove recently was very good indeed

I sure hope Ford fixed the transmission...my son's 2015 Focus was terrible...in the shop so many times I lost count.

I thought Ford was no longer building cars except for the Mustang?

I dont think this one is for the US market

CVT's are just plain terrible.

Not quite. Ford is no longer building and selling passenger cars in the US except for the Mustang (well, the Fusion is still around for another year too). They will continue to build and sell millions of cars per year elsewhere in the world.
