Test drive Ford Focus sedan since 2010 sedan
Ford Focus 3 station wagon from 634,000 p.
FordSollers officially introduced Ford Focus 3 in the station wagon. The versatility of the novelty should attract the attention of a large number of potential buyers and make the model popular. Disputes have not yet subsided, but it is already obvious: he received the third focus of folk approval. This can be judged at least by the rapid offspring of new cars on the streets. It is not surprising, because for a completely adequate cost, the consumer receives a real image car. And very modern. What, for example, eloquently indicates the surroundings of the driver's seat.
Here, compared with the predecessor, you are as if in a car class above. This, of course, applies to any of the new tricks. But so far there were two hatchbacks and sedan. Now the station wagon has been added to them. The term universal in this case is doubly symbolic. And that's why. The interior of the new items, just like the counterparts, is saturated with the atmosphere of style, comfort, security. The barn drives, and in particular it steer, no less appetizing than the third Focus in other body hyposts. But it looks better. More posture. Harmonious. Solid. And he has, of course, with excess freight. He is like a groom who, from other applicants for the hand and heart of potential owners, is distinguished by the presence of a talented personal stylist and a solid bank account. As compensation for such a pleasant bonus, the station wagon is burdened with excessive decibels (especially compared to sedan).
The fifth door opens at a corner at which the owner is spent from the risk to fill the bump
However, this is a natural phenomenon, taking into account a large body volume. And besides, the noise background arising during movement does not exceed the framework of decency. The trunk of Ford Focus 3 station wagons has decent indicators. In the usual state, he contains a luggage equivalent to 476 liters. (Now it is appropriate to recall the litigation of a traditional garden and a barrel, which is determined by the number 200.) And if you decompose the rear seat, you can pour in a cargo compartment a half cubic cubic faster ok. By the way, the metamorphosis of laying-winging is simple and unpretentious, which is an indisputable trump card of the car. A high -rise fifth door that allows an average individual to stand under it in full growth, also offset. But the rug covering the floor of the trunk does not cause sympathy. It is some kind of soft, loose, difficult to bend. And the cutouts in it (for access to fasteners) are carelessly trimmed with rubber.
Unlike its predecessor, the drain of the current station wagon is covered with a visor on the lower edge of the door
It would seem that there are trifles, but the general, rather high level of perception of quality suffers from this. Another curious moment. In the previous generation station wagons, the rear bumper had a reverse bias, as a result of which the melted snow, grabbed by a winter cold, intended the fifth door. The third -generation station wagon seemed to get rid of an unpleasant heritage. But the method of delivering a bumper is still with a water collector (unlike the vast majority of competitors with the correct bumper tilt). However, now, on the lower edge of the door, a jack of a visor appeared, which should cut off the precipitation. Winter will show. But in any case, the car turned out to be attractive. In terms of qualities and prices.
With a 476-liter trunk, there are no problems with cargo transportation
