The next-generation Ford Focus range will be the star attraction at the Ford Motor Company's display at the 2010 Paris Motor Show on 30 September.
For the first time, the complete global Ford Focus line-up of three production-ready body styles will be displayed together, providing customers with a full insight into this significant new model before it goes on sale in Europe and North America early in 2011.
Ford is also delivering on its promise to introduce a global performance version of the new Focus with a world premiere for the exciting flagship of the range, the muscular 250bhp Focus ST.
The dramatic new ST will launch in early 2012 and will be revealed at the Ford stand by Alan Mulally, Ford's President and CEO, and Stephen Odell, Chairman and CEO, Ford of Europe.
The new range-topping Focus features a unique version of the new 2.0-litre, four-cylinder Ford EcoBoost engine.
It will be completely true to Ford's ST heritage, offering driving enthusiasts a cocktail of exhilarating performance and handling accompanied by an addictive sound.
Visitors to the Paris display will notice the show car's highly distinctive sports exterior, which is finished in 'Tangerine Scream', a dramatic new body colour that reflects the new ST's exciting and energetic character.
