2013 Ford Focus ST

The 2013 Focus is Ford's compact car, offered as a sedan or hatchback, and it competes with the Civic and Corolla. The Focus is known for its sharp handling and responsive steering, making it genuinely fun to drive on twisty roads. Inside, the Focus offers a modern cabin with supportive seats and a good amount of space for passengers and cargo. Stepping up to the ST brings the Focus's hot-hatch variant, with a stronger engine and sport-tuned suspension that make it a genuine driver's car. Its 2.0L I4 makes 243 horsepower and 270 lb-ft of torque, sent to the front wheels through a six-speed manual, and it returns 26 mpg combined. The ST's Recaro seats hold you tight through corners, which is great for spirited driving but can feel snug on long commutes.
