Ford's restyled Focus has arrived in dealerships across the country at a starting price of 19,565 euros -- which means no increase in entry level price.
The company has also put in an electronic stability programme as standard across the range, which comprises 46 models from the entry-level Focus Freedom to the luxury Ghia and sporty Titanium series.
Focus has been Ireland’s top selling car for the last seven years and more than 80,000 units of the two generations so far have been sold here.
A special fuel efficient and clean powertrain line-up includes a 1.6-litre TDCi variant that will achieve a sub-120g/km CO2 classification.
