European Market Focus // Meet America

Having dug through a Ford press release, skimming past fuel economy stats and notes on the slowing of pickup truck production, we noticed one very important thing; European market Ford Focus and Fiesta's to cross the pond in 2010. According to the press release, Ford states: “Next-generation, European Ford Focus and Fiesta small cars to begin production in North America in 2010, as Ford confirms it is revising its product plan to add more small cars.” Good news? Well considering the Euro market Focus exemplifies all that Ford can do, and all that we have gone without, we must say this is great news. Which raises a question, with Ford bringing the Euro Focus and Fiesta to the states, will they in turn offer an AWD turbo variety, say the Focus RS? Press release did not specify, but if American buyers are as eager as we at ColdTrackDays are, keep your eyes peeled for a 2010 Focus RS at your local racetrack and rally events // 06.20.2008
