Default New Focus concept

Well, I think it looks like the Mondeo :roll: and a bit of the new Volvo S40

i like that. theyve done quite a good job in modernising the focus but keeping the same style.

i think the concept looks a lot like the new TL, but with a touch of the focus styling cues, definitly more attractive then the current one.

well the reason it looks like an s40 is because it and teh mazda 3 share almost all of the parts togeather.

i think this looks like a civic from the side

i guess i've never really cared for the 4-door Focus's, so i'm not too concerned about this concept. its a bit boring to look at.
i'd like too see what they'd do with the 2-door hatchback instead 8)

i would have to diagree,

if you look at the door lines (door shape) the new focus and the civic are almost the same aswell and the size of the front overhang, and rear overhang. tail light shape looks the same aswell. not to mention the size looks about the same scale, the TSX (euro accord) is much more sleek, the only lines the focus share with that is the shape of the windows
