Probably one of the best reviews I’ve seen for this car. Really felt like you were talking to a realistic real world audience who would actually buy this car. I have the 125 non hybrid petrol in the same grey, ST LINE X trim

@@BrownCarGuy This car has considerably worse MPG's than a 2015 Focus 1.5 TDCi (120 BHP) (Tax Exempt & ULEZ Compliant) Max Range about 700 miles. You can get a FSH example with less than 70,000 miles on the clock for around £7500. That makes a lot more sense to me. The 1.5TDCi (120) averages about 65 MPG and can get 80 MPG cruising at 70 mph.

I have just bought a used 2021 Focus Active Mhev on the basis of this excellent informative review and I couldn't be happier, great job.

So kind - thank you! Enjoy the car!

Thanks for the video I have a 2009 MK2.5 1.6 Petrol when I do get another Focus it’s always nice to get a little insight to what newer ones are like

My dad had a 1st gen Focus Estate Ghia 1.9 TDCI vrm ST04MGZ. I took the broacher to school and used it to help design a wooden car in CDT class. I loved dads car. As a kid I would sit at our living room window and just look at it. Dad put nearly 200,000 on it. Helped by me as it was the first car I drove after passing my test. I’m currently looking at buying a 2021 focus ST Line X. Maybe not the best in class but a focus will always have a place in my heart.

Thanks for such a great review - I’ve got one of these on order

I got the 1.5 182bph estate and had to cancel it after having it a few days due to it's crazy hungry fuel consumption. As a result I've decided to get the 1.0 155bhp mHEV so hoping it will still have a bit of niftyness to it!

I really like this new Focus! It has a remarkable torque for a 3-cylinder hybrid. Beautiful Shahzad review. Good Sunday, bye😃👍👍

You are right to bring cars of this class to our attention! These are perfect for the daily commute, leaving us to enjoy our classics and modern classics on weekends without piling the miles on them. Like you I really enjoy the sound of the 3 cylinder turbo on my daily driver. The door panel protection is awesome, I did not know that was a thing? (current youth lingo). Are Ford utilizing witchcraft or alien technology now?🤣

New Favourite reviewer! I own a STLX 182 , 69 plate . Great car bought on the back of KZread reviews as none to test drive at the time. Possibly gonna order a mk4.5 mhev 155.

I went into the dealer looking to buy the 155 MHEV, came out with the 190 ST Diesel for £1.5k more, with almost all of the extras. I don't regret that decision at all. Also glad it doesn't have the tacky-looking digital dash and has lots of physical buttons.

Might have been nice to hear a bit about the Hybrid system.

It is interesting that many in England still like manual transmissions.

Not everyone. I still do. Though I've nothing against automatics, driven and owned many. Sadly though manual transmissions won't be around for much longer, and changing gears yourself will soon become a lost art.

Sadly this car is not available in North America, I will probably buy if it was available here in Canada. Our market shifted more towards crossover cars for some reasons so most car compagnies are phasing out sedans and hatchback at a alarming rate. Does the Ford focus MHEV still have cylinder deactivation?

I've got this car with this engine, and yeah it is amazing. I also think it's quicker than 9.2
