0.54 -> Hello and welcome back to the channel.
2.94 -> Today we have this 2022 Ford
Focus, which is a facelift.
9.06 -> Uh, the biggest giveaway of the
facelift is that you can see the Ford
14.13 -> logo on the front of the grill in the
middle of the grill, not on the top
19.8 -> section, not the, but you get the idea.
23.67 -> So this is the facelift version, and
it's active trim, as you can see.
30.42 -> So, yeah, uh, what it gives you, I
believe the active trim gives you
35.55 -> those plastic parts on fenders and
it's a little bit raised as you can
42.605 -> see, like SUV type, uh, because the
SUV have stolen the best selling
49.92 -> status from this Ford focus because as
you all know, the Ford Focus was the
55.769 -> best selling, uh, car from the Ford.
60.27 -> So that's, that's enough of the talk.
63.69 -> This is the key from the Ford Focus
of the facelift and let's unlock it.
73.17 -> And you can see those
beautiful front L E D lights.
80.58 -> This is how it looks from the front.
84.63 -> Got the agressive grill and
silver lip on the front bumper.
93.9 -> Beautiful gray color.
96.65 -> Alloy wheels, as I said,
active trim folding morros,
106.44 -> some kind of rack.
109.47 -> As you can see, elastic
fenders on the rear as well.
121.86 -> And the lights ramp up.
123.4 -> Let's lock it.
125.46 -> And this is the rear view.
132.24 -> Beautiful.
133.11 -> L e d daylights.
135.51 -> I really like those types of E boost
hybrid and as we have on the front bumper,
146.49 -> so we have that on the rear as well.
148.32 -> A silver.
150.24 -> Diffuser in this case,
not a lip, not a diffuser.
154.17 -> And back to another side, which is
where everything is basically the same.
162.57 -> And as we have the silver on the
front and on the rear, we also have
165.9 -> those silver side skirts on the sides.
171.75 -> Hard, l e d, the whole daylight.
176.55 -> All right, so.
180.21 -> Inside because as you can see, it's
really foggy right now and quite cold.
186.66 -> So let's get inside.
188.55 -> As you open the door, you are
welcomed by some kind of leathery
195.03 -> material, but unfortunately, the
seats are made from cloth fluff.
200.61 -> They are not leather.
202.315 -> And, uh, they look really nice and
comfortable, uh, but they look more
207.325 -> comfortable than they are actually.
209.965 -> And as we can see here, we have a,
which stands for active trim, which
215.335 -> is this trim as we can see, and the
lions, the color of the active trim.
223.285 -> Let's get inside.
225.445 -> Let's get comfortable as
we get inside the cluster.
230.605 -> Eliminate.
232.38 -> And the screen should, does well,
but it does not for some reason.
237.239 -> The buttons are illuminated as well.
242.399 -> And when you get inside, this part right
here illuminates as well as you can
246.875 -> see the blue light, it just went off.
249.75 -> Uh, I don't know what is this
actually, it's, it's quite funny.
254.489 -> Let me get this out of the way.
256.469 -> Uh, this part closes.
260.445 -> It.
260.865 -> I, I dunno, what is this?
262.725 -> It, it's supposed to be a cup
holders, I believe, uh, adjustable cup
267.435 -> holders, but I'm not sure if I, like,
we actually have a bottle of water
273.375 -> on here and, uh, I mean, it works.
277.695 -> Uh, to adjust them,
you need to press them.
280.335 -> So it's not like you will
accelerate and, and, and it'll.
287.78 -> Out of the way and spill everything.
289.85 -> No, it holds.
291.68 -> It holds in place quite nicely, but,
well, actually, I was really skeptical
297.235 -> about this, but now as I try this
with a bottle, maybe it's a good idea.
302.605 -> I don't know.
303.23 -> Tell me in the comments,
what do you think about this?
305.15 -> Because I haven't seen the in any
other, only in Ford, so maybe this
312.15 -> is the future for the cup holders.
313.77 -> If you don't need the cup holders and you
are, I don't know, like want to have your
318.9 -> phone here, you can have that as well.
323.19 -> I don't.
323.87 -> Okay.
324.2 -> I think we spend a little bit too much
talking about this cup holder, right?
328.73 -> So this is the forward focus.
331.61 -> Let's start it up so
it'll get warm and nice.
337.61 -> So this is our steering
wheel wrapped in the leather.
341.06 -> It looks really nice.
342.78 -> Physical buttons.
343.609 -> Thank you.
344.09 -> Ford.
345.229 -> Really love physical buttons.
346.909 -> Here we are greeted by this Ford logo.
351.32 -> Now, physical buttons I spoke to
soon because as you can see here,
356.24 -> we are lacking of physical buttons.
358.969 -> Yes, we have a volume control.
361 -> Power on and off.
362.5 -> Moving on.
363.25 -> My biggest dislike is the lack
of physical buttons right here.
368.38 -> Like the heated seats, heated
steering wheel climate controls.
372.31 -> It's all on the screen, uh, which
looks like, uh, an afterthought.
379.83 -> I mean, look at it.
382.87 -> I mean, it looks, it's not terrible, but
it, it feels like the Ford did everything
390.79 -> right here and then they were like,
oh shit, we forgot the instant system.
396.79 -> We have to put something right here, so
let's put a giant screen on the trim.
402.25 -> That's what it feels
like, but uh, here it is.
405.82 -> Yeah, it's quite responsive.
407.47 -> Quite nice.
408.1 -> You have your navigation right here.
410.08 -> You have your heated seats, you
can slide it, you can press it,
415.9 -> you can do whatever you want.
417.28 -> Heated steering wheel, fan speed, front
defrost, rear defrost, AC C passenger,
426.49 -> heated seats, and that's pretty much it.
430.54 -> Yeah, so I would.
433.794 -> If those were physical buttons and
everything else, like information clock
439.224 -> in general, settings was on the screen.
442.195 -> I wouldn't mind that, but
I guess that's the future.
446.215 -> Well, I can't complain.
447.895 -> We still have the physical
buttons on the steering wheel.
450.955 -> Now let's talk about the
built quality as I can.
454.555 -> As I told you, this is
some kind of leathery.
458.855 -> Oh, it's actually plastic.
460.715 -> Wow.
461.765 -> It's a stitched plastic.
464.495 -> I'm not sure if you can
see it, but it fooled me.
468.25 -> I thought it was kind
of some kind of leather.
471.575 -> It is not.
472.265 -> It is a stitched plastic.
475.805 -> Wow, okay.
477.545 -> Okay.
478.715 -> But it's not the worst
plastic, not the best as well.
482.735 -> Power windows, mirrors lock and lock.
488.175 -> Foldable mirrors from the front,
light switch, fog lights, and
495.284 -> a cluster dimmer, I believe.
497.3 -> Yes, the brightness of the cluster.
499.515 -> Now let's talk about the interior space.
501.525 -> I am six feet, five and
uh, I feel comfortable.
505.84 -> In this seating position,
the seats are feeling well.
510.58 -> I'm not quite sure yet
how they are feeling.
513.4 -> We will talk about them on the road,
but yeah, this is how I would sit.
517.78 -> So there is plenty of space for me to
drive as well as there should be enough
523.51 -> space for me in the passenger seat.
525.31 -> It, uh, for the storage, we
have some storage right here.
530.8 -> No storage.
533.829 -> Some storage right here.
535.63 -> As you can see, there is my GoPro there,
uh, cup holder as we spoke about it.
541.689 -> And then arm rust.
543.099 -> Someone left it dirty.
544.81 -> Okay?
545.65 -> No power outlets on the armrest.
549.25 -> Let's put it back in.
550.75 -> Talking about the arm rest.
552.285 -> It is adjustable, I believe.
554.775 -> Should be.
555.314 -> Yes.
556.574 -> This is adjustable.
558.135 -> Welcome to the game Ford.
559.995 -> That was a great decision.
562.214 -> Uh, yes.
563.444 -> So about the power outlets, we have
a twelvefold socket right here, uh,
569.084 -> type C and uh, regular USB part right
here, as well as some storage here.
577.745 -> And some storage in the glove box.
582.545 -> Let's check the rear seats.
588.065 -> As I mentioned, I adjusted
the seat to my liking.
591.185 -> And now let's check.
595.265 -> And now let's check the rear seat.
597.715 -> What will I be comfortable already here?
601.625 -> And, uh,
605.375 -> I mean, It's better than
Toyota Corolla for sure.
612.63 -> It is better, but uh, for
small trips it's okay.
619.29 -> Like going to the grocery store.
621.86 -> Uh, but I would be so much more
comfortable if a smaller person
626.54 -> was sitting in front of me.
628.01 -> Like you can see here, there is
way more space than behind myself.
635.06 -> The rear seat has no arm
rest, but the seats do fall
640.19 -> down, so that's a good thing.
642.62 -> And uh, yeah, we have some
storage right here, but it.
647.02 -> It's not cup holders, so
do not expect anything.
651.189 -> Some storage here and uh, yeah.
654.34 -> Oh, a power outlet.
656.199 -> Yes.
656.62 -> And 12 volt outlet right
here moving to the trend.
661.689 -> You cannot unlock it with a key
double press and, uh, it's not
666.91 -> automated, but it just unlocks it.
671.11 -> This is how the trunk looks.
675.31 -> Nothing ambitious.
677.35 -> There are two handles on the
both sides to close the trunk.
682.09 -> How convenient.
684.1 -> Let's quickly discuss the info
team and system at its own.
689.56 -> Uh, let's go to settings and
let's see, what do we have here?
693.6 -> Connectivity, mobile apps, system updates.
696.37 -> This is where you would update your
info payment system for the assist.
701.53 -> Let's go back and let's
go to the features.
706.74 -> This is where the fun begins.
708.72 -> Uh, well, not actually.
710.73 -> Uh, we have five drive modes.
714.63 -> Uh, normal is for everyday driving
and it balances everything.
721.38 -> Okay.
722.19 -> We have eco, it helps the fuel economy.
726.39 -> Okay.
727.08 -> We have sport for spirited
and engaged driving.
731.385 -> Nice en enhances vehicle acceleration,
performance, and driving dynamics.
737.625 -> We have slippery for less
than ideal driving conditions.
742.585 -> Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
744.105 -> Reduces acceleration response.
746 -> Alright.
747.265 -> And we have a trail, uh, I wouldn't
call this an off-road, uh, car
752.725 -> because it, it's hatchback.
755.935 -> I mean it's active trim.
757.705 -> It's a little bit raised up with
the plastic fenders, but I wouldn't
761.73 -> call this an off-road vehicle
for, so the trail is far off-road
767.335 -> driving on unpaved dirt trails.
771.295 -> Yeah.
771.595 -> So this mode is not intended
far on road driving.
776.449 -> So what it does it, it doesn't tell
actually, some driver assistance features
783.949 -> are disabled, but it does not say which
features are what actually it does.
791.06 -> So yeah, that's pretty much it.
793.28 -> All right, so that's it for the
system, and let's take it for a spin.
798.829 -> Let's turn on the steering wheel.
801.439 -> Let's see how quickly it.
803.704 -> And let's go.
805.354 -> All right, let's put it in drive and
see how this thing does on the road.
815.915 -> We are driving on the
normal, uh, drive mode.
819.425 -> The accelerator seems quite responsive.
822.275 -> The brakes are really responsive.
826.324 -> I like that.
829.444 -> Okay, let's start with
a short highway road.
833.045 -> Well, the scar feels really nice.
837.069 -> The steering wheel is really soft
and nice to the touch seats are,
843.935 -> I mean, they are looking nice and
comfortable, but, uh, I wouldn't say
851.194 -> that they are the best of their class.
854.735 -> We are driving on the
normal, uh, drive mode.
858.214 -> The accelerator seems quite responsive.
861.064 -> The brakes are really, I like that.
868.805 -> Let's go here and now let's try to merge
in the highway and, uh, start from there.
876.635 -> Let's see how it is on the highway, right?
879.755 -> Let's try to merge in,
let's see the traffic.
883.865 -> No one is coming.
887.285 -> And, uh, tro
892.175 -> doable.
893.045 -> The normal drive mode.
894.875 -> If we're not considering the wind noise
and the road noise and the tire noise,
900.035 -> it's really capable car for the off-road,
for the, I'm sorry, not the off-road.
904.775 -> I'm not so sure about the off-road,
but for the highway, sure.
908.915 -> I mean, it will do the job and
uh, I will not try it on the
916.295 -> off-road because I do not believe
this is the off-road capable car.
921.454 -> But if.
923.045 -> Really want to see this 2022
far focused, active in the
929.735 -> off-road and how capable it is.
932.584 -> Leave a like, leave a comment
and uh, let's do this guys.
938.314 -> If this video reaches 100
likes, that's not a lot.
942.964 -> That's not a lot.
944.564 -> Actually, I will try and go and
go to off-road with this car.
950.074 -> Try it there.
951.214 -> How capable is this?
958.865 -> But so far, yeah, the steering
wheel hits up really fast.
963.275 -> The heated seats hit
up really fast as well.
967.474 -> Uh, this is really nice.
971.435 -> City car.
973.235 -> Plenty of space as far a hatchback
drive smoothly, turns smoothly.
979.714 -> Steering wheel.
981.724 -> I'm seeing this like.
983.314 -> Time in this review.
984.574 -> I really like the feel of this
letter, but there is one downside.
990.574 -> Let's, and that is the cons.
993.125 -> Oh, guys, see the mileage of
the car is 1, 1, 1, 1 0.1.
999.485 -> Well that is something to celebrate.
1002.094 -> I don't know if you can see it, but Wow.
1006.084 -> First like, and congratulated
this car on this birthday.
1009.745 -> That doesn't happen often.
1011.485 -> So yeah.
1012.025 -> Where was I?
1013.045 -> As you can see, uh, we are doing average
nine liters per 100 kilometers, and that
1021.9 -> is quite a lot for that kind of engine.
1026.034 -> For the city capabilities.
1027.595 -> It's really nice.
1029.605 -> That's everything you need to do
and, uh, feels better than a car.
1036.05 -> Corolla, I'm sorry, but, uh, I'm a
Japanese fan, but yeah, this Ford feels.
1043.045 -> And, uh, Corolla, especially the steering
wheel and the controls and everything.
1052.885 -> I would really prefer this Ford over,
over something like a Toyota Corolla.
1059.395 -> Now let's do the last test for the
scar, and we all know what that is.
1066.205 -> 0 2 100 or my fellow USA viewers.
1073.105 -> Zero to 60.
1074.905 -> Now, first thing, what we need to do
is go to features, drive modes, let's
1083.275 -> select sport, and uh, where do we turn
off the traction Control assistance.
1090.235 -> Yes.
1090.715 -> Traction control off.
1094.075 -> And, uh, let's try and.
1097.04 -> And this lots of lightro.
1100.55 -> And 3, 2, 1, go.
1103.79 -> All right.
1105.649 -> 40, 50, 60, 80, 90, and uh, hundred.
1114.56 -> Well, I mean, that was quit.
1116.899 -> But, uh, then again,
the fuel consumptions.
1122.78 -> Uh, so thank you guys for watching.
1125.27 -> Please leave a comment if.
1127.04 -> This video, leave a comment if
you didn't like it, tell me why.
1130.85 -> What did I do wrong?
1132.35 -> But if you did like press, like that
will really help me as well as if
1136.909 -> you would subscribe the channel.
1138.5 -> I will make more content like that.
1140.48 -> Also, if you have any car in particular
that you want me to review, leave a
1146.389 -> comment as well, and I will try to
get that car and review it as well
1151.07 -> as do the POV driving of the car.
1153.56 -> And yeah, that's pretty much it.
1155.81 -> Thank you guys again.
1157.25 -> Like, subscribe that and all that other
stuff and see you in the next one.
