The standard Focus will continue to be produced until November, after which the model will be discontinued completely.

The Focus ST was launched in 2002, gaining popularity among sports driving enthusiasts thanks to its excellent handling and powerful engine.

The latest fourth generation, introduced in 2019, was equipped with a powerful 2.3-liter EcoBoost turbo engine, producing an impressive 280 hp. The model has undergone numerous updates, the latest of which took place two years ago.

Ford has also discontinued the Fiesta ST and Mondeo, which has negatively affected the brand's position in Europe. The company's market share has fallen to 3.3%, falling behind Hyundai and Kia.
