Geneva Show 2014: High-Tech Focus Bares All

FORD’S new Focus might have already seen the light of day, but now that the car has been given its public debut at the Geneva Motor Show the Blue Oval has released more details on its family favourite.

Aside from the enhanced exterior design, key to the car’s revamp is a new suite of in-car electronics to keep you safe and entertained.

The main attraction is a new version of the car maker’s Sync 2 telematics system boasting intelligent sat-nav, advanced voice control, integrated music player features and an intuitive colour touchscreen.

On the safety front, the Focus can be had with the likes of adaptive headlights, intelligent parking sensors capable of warning drivers of moving vehicles and MyKey, Ford’s customizable safety system enabling parents to restrict various features to reduce distractions for young novice drivers.

The revamped Focus is expected to go on sale in the second half of 2014.
