"I don't want to like this car!"
Can a performance car be economical?
Should a performance car have a diesel engine?
Should Ford put an ST badge on their TDCi Focus?
Welcome to the Mk3.5 Ford Focus ST TDCi Powershift!
We have great experience with Ford's ST range, and we are big fans here at Accelerate. But, I've always questioned whether a diesel engined car can be called a performance vehicle.
With 185bhp & an impressive 400nm of torque, we were very intrigued. The addition of Ford's dual clutch transmission (powershift) makes this example a very rare one.
We were fortunate enough to be thrown the keys, to find out how good or bad the "best selling car of 2012" is.

Looking to buy one of these this month, as a 37 year old petrol head with a family and a long commute this ticks every box! Stage 1 remap will give me enough fun for the weekends plus wife will be happy with the tax and economy. Great car!

Well, did you get one?

@midnightrider287 Год назад

@@bigaljack56 I did indeed! Very happy with it so far, had it since March. One issue where clutch got stuck to floor 2 days from buying it but garage sorted. We then stupidly bought a dog so now on the hunt for an estate lol

@@midnightrider287 I picked my white ST2 on Friday, 2018 with 30k so should do me a while. It was a rushed purchase but I'm happy so far. It's a little slower than my last Volvo v40 but I might just get it mapped. It handles so well though! I wanted an estate but very few in Northern Ireland.

@@bigaljack56 mines an ST-2 as well. I got mine remapped in summer and the torque is now ridiculous ha. Has dropped a few mpg though, despite the claims that will increase too.

@bigaljack56 Год назад

@@midnightrider287 I've only done 300 miles in mine as yet but it's saying I'm only getting 42MPG. It's maybe just not used to my driving style but I have been a lot slower than I was in the last car that was giving me 49 and that was a 5 cyl

Great video. I think the Focus ST diesel doesn't get the attenttion it deserves. Sick locking car with great styling, amazing drive characteristics and very economical as well. Can someone telle me how good are these recaro seats for a very long 10+ hours ride? I am average size and weight if it means anything. Can it be uncomfortable?

@-PLAYER0NE- Год назад

I didn’t even know these existed until like 10 minutes ago and now I’m obsessed. The stock figures are pretty similar but damn i’d bet if you tune it properly the torque would be crazy. We never get small diesels in America. Very odd that it’s an automatic though… i thought all ST’s were 6 speed only. But again that’s here. Also those headlights! So cool why can we not have that here!?
