High Gear Media Network Feed

The current Ford Focus is sold all over the globe and since launching in 2010 it’s gone on to earn the title of world’s most popular car. Ford Motor Company [NYSE:F] is now giving the Focus a mid-cycle update that will see the car gain revised styling, a new fuel-efficient engine, and the latest tech.

The car makes its world debut at the 2014 Geneva Motor Show on March 4 and will be sailing into showrooms this fall, as a 2015 model. The sporty Focus ST is due to receive similar updates but is yet to be revealed.

The most obvious change is the styling at the front, which now more closely resembles Ford’s passenger car family look and adds a bit of sport to the Focus' character. The headlights get a high-tech look while the grille has been positioned higher. At the rear, the lights have been shrunk slightly and fitted with new graphics.

Inside, colors and materials have a clean, modern look, with satin chrome detailing, new seat trims, switches and an available heated steering wheel. Storage is improved with a new center console incorporating adjustable cupholders, and a new, easier-to-access glove box.
