Ford Focus Coupé-Cabriolet





Ford Focus Coupé-Cabriolet
The Ford Focus is a small family car manufactured by Ford first in Europe starting July 1998, then worldwide starting February 2000 (with its own model for North America in production until late 2010). A second generation launched in Europe in January 2005, received styling and engineering updates in January 2008, and is marketed globally outside North and South America. The third generation model will be sold globally upon its launch, first in Europe (late 2010) then in the Americas (early 2011).

In Europe, South America, North America and South Africa, the Focus replaced the Ford Escort. In Oceania and Asia, it replaced the Ford Laser. Focus models rank as the 41st bestselling automotive nameplate worldwide, with over 5 million sold.

The Ford Focus Coupé-Cabriolet is doubly seductive: a dynamic coupé that can be turned into an elegant cabriolet in just 29 seconds. From chromium-plated details to its Pininfarina logo on the side, the Ford Focus Coupé-Cabriolet displays a whole series of quality details. The elegant lines of the new front end clearly demonstrate Ford’s Kinetic Design language, and they match perfectly the refined lines of the side and rear profile. Thanks to the all Italian elegance, the vehicle expresses style, harmony and dynamism both when the hard-top is closed and when it is folded away into the luggage compartment. This rigid two-piece unit was designed to withstand any weather conditions, and was tested severely on the icy roads of Finland and in the dry heat of Spain.
