Well with the front end at least. That corporate face just doesnt fit on the Focus.

dont think ford meant it, but that focus looks a hell of a lot like a 2014 Kia Forte

I'm not hating on it to be honest. That being said, looking at it head on makes you think it's constipated. As a mid-cycle refresh went, It's really not that bad. At least this time it's on a competent chassis as opposed to the first time they redesigned the Focus.

Maybe its just the angle of the sedan pic that makes it look so horrible.

Is berf. I'm not a fan of the Fusion either, but I like the open grille look of the current Focus better. It looks squished now.

The current sedan isn't what you'd call 'great' either. The thing kind falls off in the rear for me and idk, the design just seems so much better suited to the hatch profile.

Yeah. In my opinion, the best implementation of the corporate face is on the Fusion.The designers had a clean slate with the Fusion. Here they're just plastering a face onto a car that wasn't made to use this grill.

I like it. It's a FAR cleaner design than the old fascia with its massive, gaping maw and surrounding fake-vent triangles.

This Focus is approved by MontegoMan.

I actually like it, I think it looks a lot more muscular.

yea, I was thinking it looked a lot like the optima, especially the fog light opening/styling

I keep forgetting that these can be had with that weird tumor-like growth on the back.

I think it looks much better than the old one. Much more "focused" so to speak, or just more mature if we leave the cheap word-play out of it.
