Handling

1. Che168.com
By trying to help drivers save on gas, the automaker improved the electronic throttle of the car, so the pedals of the 2011 Focus are not as sensitive as the previous models. Drivers may find it quite normal in the beginning to start the car, but when accelerating afterwards, the car responds slowly. The same goes for the brakes.

On driving the new Focus, you realize that you can handle the steering wheel steadily with heavy solid chassis. Its sporty suspension allows passengers to feel comfortable even when driving over bumps.

The 2011 Focus features with a 2.0L Duratec HE 4-inline engine with a maximum of 104 kW power and 180 Nm torque meeting the national emission standards. When driving in rugged cities like Chongqing, the sporty Focus can't perform well for the power-giving seems to always lag behind. When driving in normal mode, you'd better shift gears a little bit earlier to make it get smooth; when turning into sport mode, the acceleration gets easier and more sensitive.
