Ford Focus became 100-percent flex-fuel

March 3rd, 2010

2010 Ford Focus Hatch 2.0 Flex

Launched in 2008 with only petrol engine, the Ford Focus has just received another flex-fuel engine. After releasing version 1.6 with Sigma engine in December 2009, Ford introduced the 2.0 Duratec engine flex-fuel this week. Now all the line-up uses flex-fuel engines.
The engine power, which was 143 hp, increased to 146 hp with the use of ethanol. Nonetheless, Ford said that the gain in performance occurred in the torque at low revs.

The automaker also replaced the manual gearbox MTX, manufactured in France, by the IB5+ transmission,  produced locally. Thus the vehicle prices fell an average of 3%. The Focus sold in Brazil is produced in the town of Pacheco, Argentina.
