Default Re: 2010 Production Focus, what do you want to see?

For the 2011 focus Is would like to see:

base 1.8l 125hp engine as the base, 30/37MPG
optional 2.5l 180hp I4 with a LSD 25/32 mpg

EcoNetic 1.3l I3 direct injection Eco boost turbo 150hp 35/45mpg

Going forward Fuel Economy is everything.

We will have less powerful cars, with much better economy.

the US will turn into Europe. C-cars will be mainstream in 5 years.

As for trim levels.

The EcoNetic line would be a opportunity to market Affordable green technology as a brand.

the entire lineup will move up market.

AWD will not be needed hurts economy too much. C2 should be AWD capable.
