The already immensely popular Ford Focus has received attractive styling, technology and under-the-hood updates that are sure to further build its fan base. With an Aston Martin-inspired grille design, a new SE Sport Package and the addition of a 1.0L three-cylinder EcoBoost engine option, the 2015 Ford Focus in Mesquite is already winning over critics.

Additional changes for the new model include:

  • MyKey now standard on all trims
  • Available new heated steering wheel
  • Newly optional lane-keeping assist and blind-spot detection
  • MyFord Touch-equipped models receive standard rearview camera
  • Enhanced SYNC AppLink offers new capabilities
  • New six-speed manual transmission (mated to new 1.0L EcoBoost)
  • Updated electronic steering rack
  • Software updates for the dual-clutch gearbox improve its performance
  • Suspension revisions have resulted in smoother ride
  • Revised lower grille opening
  • Restyled trunk lid
  • New rear lamp clusters and headlamp design
  • New center console now includes adjustable cupholders

The SE Sport Package mentioned at top is a perfect option for performance-minded buyers, adding features such as paddle shifters, special body kit pieces, 17-inch black gloss aluminum wheels and a more aggressively tuned suspension. Also, to expand on the fifth bullet, just a couple of SYNC AppLink's new functions include the ability to send notifications (e.g., traffic jam alerts) even when the app is not active and the ability to access a car's GPS signal to provide more accurate location-based services.

According to new vehicle registration data collected by Polk, Ford Focus is the world's best-selling nameplate. Now, with this year's sweeping set of powertrain, suspension, design and technology updates, consumers have even more to love about Focus. It's also receiving great buzz from critics, so we can't wait to offer it to our customers here at Town East Ford!

The new 2015 Ford Focus in Mesquite is scheduled to arrive at our dealership later this year.
