Ford Takes Focus ST Driving to Next Level with Track Pack
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
Ford’s agility-enhancing, factory-fit Track Pack takes the on-track performance of the high-performance Focus ST to new heights.
Adjustable KW Automotive suspension, oversized Brembo brakes, and low-mass wheels with grip-optimised Pirelli P Zero Corsa tyres complement the 2.3-litre EcoBoost 280 PS engine to enhance driving dynamics and add to Focus ST’s fun-to-drive appeal.

Ford got greedy and decided to only sell trucks because they have a higher markup.
Ford: “no one buys hatchbacks in the U.S. especially not if they are performance oriented. Better just stop selling them altogether” Toyota: “Bet.”
Wish Ford would bring the Focus ST back to the US. I’d buy one tomorrow!

The Track Pack is really good value when you think about it. 3700 € for the pack, while an aftermarket KW V3 is already 2260 €. That means you basically get the Brembos, a set of flow-formed wheels and bespoke sports tires for 1440 €.

Finally a brake setup that can withstand more than just a single fast lap on the Nordschleife… the Fiesta ST however still has the teeny tiny 278mm front brakes that have been a disappointment since the 2005 Fiesta ST150

Congratulations Ford !!!

You guys really need to bring this to the US you literally tease us with it and we can’t even get it it’s bad enough we can’t get the mk2 atleast hook us up with these
I love this car , we love the ST performance car as Focus and Fiesta “love ❤
Ford, PLEASEEEEEEE do a track pack for the Fiesta ST. It's brakes are bordering on dangerous!
I am seriously thinking to order but... The Track Pack with a discount and a few other options is available at around £40k here in the UK which is similar to Golf R price. That's VERY expensive given it will depreciate around 35% in 3 years. For the same money one can buy a few years old very low mileage manual M2. A previous gen Type R in amazing condition super low miles costs considerably less. I'm not talking about the brand new I30n which is also quite cheaper. While GR86 is only the fraction of the cost while arguably being a better drivers car. SOLUTION: Ford please make it 10% cheaper here in the UK, add the Azura blue option and preferably make it look very very different to a normal Focus, and you'll get a total winner. PS. Please never let go of the sunroof, it's the best option one can spec.
Wish I could get it in the US :( Love my 18 ST

Everyone "complaining" about the unavailability anymore of the ST in the US market, please consider that we do not get one in EU either. And to be "technically correct", most countries have stopped taking orders for the MK4 facelift (even "simple" versions) almost the time they announced the 2022 model. Those who were quick and placed an order will have to wait for almost a year, even more. Sadly, Ford will stop producing the Focus in a couple of years.

Sorry Leute bei Ford Europe. Das was ihr hier als Neu vorstellt, hab ich bereits seit geraumer Zeit bei meinem Focus RS Mk2 längst und noch viel besser umgesetzt: Beispiele gefällig : Original RS Mk2 Ronal 15-speichige Felge wiegt 12,3kg/ Stk. - ich fahre eine mb MF1 Felge in der komplett gleichen Dimension und ET mit 7,88kg/Stk. - also 4,5kg leichter pro Stück, meine Herren. Oder Original Bremse vorne 336/30 - ich fahre eine Carbon/ Keramik Bremse vorne 370/35 mit 6-Kolben Sattel von Mov'It. Gesamt 15,5kg leichter als Serie. Das Clubsport Gewindefahrwerk von KW brauch ich hier bald gar nicht mehr erwähnen - weil's sowieso seit Jahren das Beste ist. Zudem noch stärkere Stabis vorne und hinten. Als I-Tüpfelchen eine Liteblox Batterie LB28XX die um 15kg leichter ist als die Serien Bleibatterie - das nenn ICH mal Performance. Also irgendwie seit ihr alle Lichtjahre zurück bei Ford Europe.
