Ford has released the first official photographs of the production-ready new Focus. The hatchback will make its debut at the
Paris Motor Show on 30 September.
Production-ready examples of the five-door hatchback and Estate will be on display. No details of the engine range or other technical highlights have been revealed yet but Ford does describe the model as 'all new'.
Details of a performance version will also be revealed in Paris. This is thought to be the new Focus ST, powered by a 2.0-litre turbocharged EcoBoost petrol engine with direct injection.
The 2010 Paris Motor Show is open to the public from 2 to 17 October. The third generation Ford Focus is due to go on sale in March next year in time for the '11' registration.
