The Focus scooped one of only five best in class awards on the strength of its maximum five-star Euro NCAP rating as well as four Euro NCAP Advanced rewards last year, an achievement unmatched by any other high-volume car.
Ford say the Focus 'exemplifies our approach to design cars that both help drivers avoid accidents and protect them when one is inevitable'.
Focus had achieved an adult occupant score of 92 per cent, child occupant rating of 82 per cent, pedestrian score of 72 per cent, and safety assist rating of 71 per cent.
