The slight aesthetic changes can be seen in the front hood that has been redesigned with a little more height, also placing the oval logo in the upper center of the grille, as well as the single-piece front that integrates bumpers, side gills and grille, being a little different depending on the equipment level (“ Connected ” and “ Titanium ” with the upper grille with horizontal slats and chrome frame, and the “ ST-Line ” level with black “honeycomb” trapezoidal grille).
Now the headlights are diode in all versions with anti-fog function and the rear light groups are with a dark background and at high levels with light in the form of a loop.
The “ Active ” camper level shows a wider grille with vertical slats, highlighting its higher body height.
In some markets a luxury level ” Vignale ” with leather upholstery is marketed, although it is not known if this time it will come to the Spanish market.
Undoubtedly, the one that will be sold to Spain will be the Focus ST , the most sporty , which will have an exterior and interior design specifically streamlined with special wheels and new sports seats.
With regard to habitability , there are no changes , except for the trunk, which has been increased and has a double bottom , passing in the saloon to 358 liters and in the family body to 593 liters (1,653 liters folding the rear seats), with a vertical divider that allows a better distribution of cargo space.
It is presented, as before, with three body variants (“ saloon ”, family “ SportBreak ”, campero “ Active ” and later “ ST ”), whose dimensions are:

- Free trial of Connected Navigation and Ford Secure subscriptions , with direct traffic, weather and parking information, as well as local hazard information.
- Wireless Power-Up Updates.
Thrusters now also hybridized
In mechanics, it presents as its main novelty the offer of micro-hybridization at 48 volts (MHEV) in some engines , maintaining gasoline and diesel engines:
| Motor | Hybridization | HP Power | Change | Consumption l/100km | CO2 emission g/km |
| GASOLINE | |||||
| 1.0 EcoBoost | – | 100 | Manual 6v | 5.1 | 116 |
| 1.0 EcoBoost | MHEV | 125 | Manual 6V or Automatic 7v | 5.2 | 117 |
| 1.0 EcoBoost | MHEV | 155 | Manual 6V or Automatic 7v | 5.2 | 117 |
| 1.5 EcoBoost | – | 200 | Manual 6V or Automatic 7v | ||
| 2.3 4 cyl. ST 280 | – | 280 | 7v automatic | ||
| DIESEL | |||||
| 1.5 Eco Blue | – | 95 | Manual 6V or Automatic 7v | 4.0 | 106 |
| 1.5 Eco Blue | – | 120 | Manual 6V or Automatic 8v | 4.0 | 106 |
| 2.0 Eco Blue | – | 150 | |||
| 2.0 Eco Blue | – | 190 |
The biggest novelty being the EcoBoost MHEVs , their operation is by means of a hybrid motor that replaces the alternator with a generator/starter motor , which allows energy to be recovered during braking to store it in its lithium-ion battery pack. The electric motor can also act as an auxiliary motor to provide extra torque and greater acceleration, thus improving effort and corresponding consumption.
The marketing of this new Ford Focus 2022 is expected at the end of the first quarter of the current year and its prices will be known when it is launched on the market.
