Guess the rumors of the wagon's demise were overplayed. :dunno:Ford to Unveil Revised Focus at Detroit Auto Show
DETROIT -(Dow Jones)- Ford Motor Co. (F) will unveil a revised and upgraded edition of its Focus small car at the Detroit auto show next month as the auto maker looks to capitalize on increase interest by consumers in the U.S. small-car market.
Ford spokesman Jim Cain, in an interview Wednesday, said the company is planning to show off the refreshed Focus for the 2008 model year at a time when "small cars are the hottest cars going." The car is expected to debut with a variety of new features, including standard side-curtain airbags that are generally thought to improve occupant safety. Ford's entire lineup will be equipped with side-curtain airbags by 2009.
Cain declined to discuss specific details of the updated Focus, which is built as a sedan, wagon and coupe. He said the company showed the car to dealers in the summer and "they were very impressed with the depth of change."
