183 BHP. 295 Torques. 64 MPG (UK). 0-62mph in 8.1 seconds

!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!

It has got Ford's 2.0-litre TDCi turbo four, tuned to 183bhp and 295lb-ft of torque thanks to a "revised" air intake system, new sportier exhaust and ECU remap.

What does Oppo Think of a Ford Developed STD ? (Completley Intended)

I'm actually very interested in how they solve the naming issue. I know they have staff that checks model names for inappropriate translations but I wonder if this will get through.

For this job, they must have HUNDREDS

The 5k redline in the press photos gave it away.

I also wonder what other alternatives they have? Focus STDI? Focus ST CDI?

Yeah, then Top Gear assured me about it

Yeah it's a good rival to the Subaru Impreza STI hahaha

The diesel is awesome though. Too bad we won't get it or the wagon

I know this wont get sold in the US but I hope it gets sold in the US. Also I'm digging the knew front fascia.

Wait, can you still get it in gas?

Also, the new nomenclature is STI, so mad Scooby fanboys when?

This will give the reason VW needed to bring the GTD!

I remember a few months ago when there was rumors that the GTD was coming here. I was so disappointed when it as cleared up that the rumors were false.

Really? I would put it the STE

Now we only need Mazda to build an unbeilivably good MazdaSpeed3D Concept

And here I posted a comment on the FP asking about that - the 5k tach in the picture had me question this

8.1 to 60 seems slow for those power numbers...

What does ford call their diesels? Powerstroke? Ford ST Powerstroke

Why didn't they offer this color last time around?!

I bet they will call it the ST DCi, if they even make the diesel a badge.

Haha it seems a bit... Industrial, as it will be sold in the Eurochic parts of Europe.

I dont like silver/grey cars but that is a great color!

Vicente Esteve > M54B30
06/27/2014 at 09:35

Seems the most logical.

Not extreme enough, though that's only my personal idea of the ST.

It might work for Skoda's Octavia RS (200 hp gasoline & 170 hp Diesel engine in the respective (v)RS models), but in the case of this here Foci, there's too big a difference between the two. What's worse, they actually have a 200 hp Diesel in Mondeo, Galaxy etcetera.

Don't forget that Mazda already offered the previous Mazda 3 with a 185 hp 2.2 Diesel. :'D

Hmm, never thought of that. Still, the chance of it going to the US is a bit far.
