Ford Focus X-Road
In the UK they get a new Ford Fiesta – what do the Dutch get? How about a Ford Focus X wagon based off the Taurus X. When is North America going to get a cool Ford product?? It seems like Ford sends all their interesting roadsters and wagons overseas – whole America keeps getting new, bigger versions of the Expedition SUV. Now the Dutch have their own Focus X.
The new Ford Focus X-Road made its debut at Auto RAI in Amsterdam as a 300-unit limited edition. This Focus comes with a 1.8-liter 16v engine, which produces 125 horse power. The car can also run on bio-ethanol, and its emissions are low.
Basically, it’s a Ford Focus wagon with a tripped out suspension systems and a little extra horse power. But with only 125 under the hood, maybe we’re not missing much. The car comes with black roof rails, 17-inch alloy wheels, and a metallic Moondust Silver paint job. It will be on sale sometime this July. Ich Bin Ein Ford! Wait, wrong language…
