Oficiala... LOL! E vorba de ce spun fatucile si gugustiucii din presa auto straina. Doar nu iau cina zilnic cu Billica Ford sau beau ceiutul in fiecare zi la ora 5 cu oficialii de la Opel.

[CrisArkgoth]

e cam ilogic sa nu fi aparut un facelift pana acum daca apare la anul. ca exemplu A4 are facelift de ceva timp si tot nu stim cum va arata...

[the1]

Faceliftul trebuia sa cam apara deja, dar se limita oricum la adoptarea unei grile cromate gen Jetta si poate la un interior usor restilizat. Altceva nu prea. Noile TDIuri commonrail vor fi gata abia prin 2008 si vor probabil lansate odata cu Golf6, de fapt un fel de Golf 5.1, fiind un Golf 5 cu un nou look.

New Focus on horizon

Sa fie oare acesta Focus mk. III ?

[the1]

Eu as zice ca sunt sanse mai mari sa fie asta.

Schite care par sa arate noul Flocus, in loc de C-Max. Who knows?







INFO despre viitoarele modele de clasa compacta Ford -10 variante pe platforma noului Focus -break, 3, 4 si 5 usi, C-Max, Grand C-Max, CC, New Kuga... mai raman cateva variante??; plus info despre noua gama EcoBoost (1.2 turbo 120cp, 1.6 turbo 150 si 180cp plus 2.0 turbo 200 si 230cp).

Important: LANSARE IN 2010 pt noul Focus!
Citat: ''the launch globally of the next-generation Ford Focus beginning late 2010.''

From the official press release: 'The all-new, next-generation Ford Focus sedan and five-door hatchback models are scheduled to launch late in calendar year 2010 in the United States. With the market introduction of the 7-seat C-MAX in late 2011, Ford will offer customers in North America three distinct models in the important compact segment, which is expected to show continued growth in the coming years.

Ford a prezentat noua generatie Focus. Lansarea europeana e programata pentru inceputul lui 2011

[Artanis]

Este o evolutie, insa nu mi se pare ceva deosebit. Oricum, nici a treia generatie nu pare sa aduca valul de noutate pe care l-a adus Focus mk.1.

[DeLucian]

subscriu si eu. Important e sa ramana nr 1 la dinamica.

DETROIT, Jan. 11, 2010 � Great driving quality will be at the heart of the next-generation
Ford Focus making its debut at the 2010 North American International Auto Show.
Delivering a car that is responsive and rewarding to drive � and extends the Focus
reputation for leadership in driving quality � has been a critical objective for Ford�s global
brand DNA.

In developing the new Focus, Ford called upon the expertise of a vehicle dynamics team
that uses a unique approach to create the optimum balance of steering, handling and ride.
During a 15-year period, this team has been responsible for a series of products that are
widely recognized as setting the standard for driving dynamics in their segments.

�We set a clear objective to deliver products that are great fun to drive but also offer a
relaxed, refined and comfortable driving experience,� said Kessing.

This DNA was then expressed as a series of technical specifications, so that each
characteristic could be measured and tested. For example, the precision and responsiveness
of the steering is reflected by more than 20 different metrics that capture the efforts and
responses felt by the driver during a range of conditions, from high-speed cornering to
parking maneuvers.

�...Fine- tuning by dynamics specialists, together with an obsessive attention to detail, makes all the
difference between a car that is good to drive and one that is great to drive.�

"The Ford approach is centered on creating the maximum time for detailed tuning of the
steering and suspension systems, to ensure that each part is fully optimized in the vehicle. "

(gata ca v-am tampit cu atata dynamics, cine vrea mai mult citeste in pdf. oricum, pazea astra & golf & co regele dinamicii se intoarce )
Oricum, ca si la precedentele generatii vorbim de DNA, adica fara optionale gen ids-uri si butoane sport. e acolo, la toate si oricand.

http://www.newfordfo...nformation_.pdf

High-strength steels are used extensively in the next-generation Focus body shell. High-
strength steels comprise 55 percent of the body shell, and more than 26 percent of the
vehicle�s structure is formed from ultra-high-strength and Boron steels � significantly more
than any other Ford product. These advanced materials help the structure meet the most
stringent crash legislation across world markets, while minimizing the vehicle�s weight.

(ca tot se ingrijora cineva de greutatea crescuta )

The new Focus will make significant strides in reducing cabin noise, promising
cabin environment. This refinement complements the fresh new interior design
craftsmanship levels to create a premium feel akin to larger vehicles.

(actualul mk2 european are niste probleme cu antifonarea)


All global customers will benefit from the same quality of dynamic performance in the new
Focus. Identical chassis and suspension architecture is being used for all markets, except
for minor regional tuning differences, such as local tire specifications.

(apropo de ultima observatie de la pdf-ul precedent)

Ford�s European driving dynamics specialists have also enhanced cornering stability and
agility with the introduction of an advanced Dynamic Cornering Control system, which
uses �torque vectoring� techniques to transfer power between the drive wheels to deliver
reduced understeer, improved traction and better turn-in.

(din niste comentarii de pe net - cica e o chestie care se regasea doar pe tractiunea integrala, si adaptata in pemiera pt fwd??)

[cata69]

torque vectoring, daca nu bat campii, e ce au bagat astia pe X6 si S4 initial. cu mentiunea ca la audi e disponibil ca optional la orice model quattro.

[EvilOne]

Evident ca e s...de p...., va fi EDL ala implementat de Fiat/VAG care simuleaza un LSD electronic, si avind in vedere evolutia electronica a devenit mai eficient decit vechile modele, insa un lucuru e esential: el tot frineaza in loc sa dixstribuie (copyright Snoop) puterea. Pentru o masina de 15-25k astea sint avioane, ai nevoie de EVO minim ca sa obtii asa ceva, sau Insigna OPC.

Mai bine spuneau ceva de motoare: 1.6 s 2.0T cu injectie directa, evolutii excelente pentru 2.0 TDCI, acolo e valoarea.

[VIPER]

Valoarea dpmdv e ca au in sfarsit un model global care arata identic in EU si USA. Poate mi-l iau cand ajung dincolo

Dincolo, unde-i taramul v-urilor, aspiratelor de-o cilindree de-l frustrezi pe Relu?

Ai curaj sa punem pariu ca te vad intr-o "orezara" ?

Am, nici eu, nici Gabitza, nu suportam orezarele... Sunt ok, nimic de reprosat, dar si noi, ca si tine, avem o mica doza de fanatism Eu vreau Taurus, ea vrea Edge

[MMM]

FF3-ul asta daca ar fi avut motor si transmisie, ar fi fost misto. :laugh:

Pai nu cred sa vrea a pica in banalitate cu orezara, vrea un GT sau altceva in sens de masina...

Poate. Ca idee Taurus 2010 vine cu niste chestii care cam bat la popou anumite firme galonate din EU. Dar deja deviem de la FF3

fata trista si urata, spate la fel de urat, linia laterala e interesanta, bordul e k. Dpdv al designului hatch-ul e un downgrade fata de ff2 facelift. La sedan, arata mai bine, desi spatele are unele chestii copiata de la samsung sm5
