The Ford Focus has been one of the most favorite Ford model in the world. It has won many hearts thanks to its outstanding value, high level of comfort and safety. However many of its fans attribute their love to the Focus with its impressive handling. To create the new Focus, designers and engineers from Europe work hard to perfect its design and power capabilities. The result was three new versions ranging from a new sporty five-door hatchback, a sleek four door-sedan and a practical five door wagon.

The Focus hatchback comes with larger uniquely styled rear lights that hug each end of the rear with grace. The Sedan and Estate versions come with stylish lights. They are also smaller compared to the hatchback version but just like the youthful hatchback the lights hug each side with grace to give the car a neat mature look.
