It's turbocharged, men. ;) Otherwise a car engine wouldn't show a performance like this. A turbocharger simulates engine size

Hyundai all life

To be fair the focus is also not a small and light car anymore and almost comparable to f.e. a last gen VW Passat (Focus 1.0 155HP is listed as 1451kg vs. 1479kg Passat 1.5 TSI). The 1.5 TSI is a very good engine but even beeing half as much bigger than the Ecoboost the Passat is not a racecar with it. So yeah pretty astonishing for the small 1.0 ecoboost how well it copes with the Focus.

He kept it in 6th gear @4000 rpm. With a bit of gear change he might have more consistency at high speed. Of course it will not match a stronger engine.

@ManiPulatoR84 I drove both cars (focus 155 and Merc A220 with 190hp), Focus performs very well for a 3 cylinder engine but the difference is big on autobahn, I did 245 km/h on flat with A220, with 2nd person in the car. In video I think it's A180 or A200, top speed rated 215 and 225 km/h by Merc.

These don't have bigger turbos it's the same as the 125 version but has a different map

Why I brought the estate version so fun to drive

@@Hartley1966 yes… ford means drivers brand

How much kilometers did you do with it? How it drives are you happy with it? Its little shame say that i have 1 liter engine in car but from the other side so far it drive good and not feeling unconfortable using it does it matter 1.0 or 2.0? What is your normal consumption ?

@@TestyRoznychRzeczy it says it has 150hp but they feel like 150 naturally aspirated. you need to rev the engine to get power. Any 2.0 engine will feel slower at the mid range but better at top end. The 1.0 is a really good engine and not small for the focus. I wish it had more torque but that is not possible. it does 190nm from 1750rpm to 4500rpm. Consumption = normal car with turbo. Worse consumption is in city driving 7L/100. Mixed urban + highway = 6.5. Only highways below 6. The ford 1.0 is a strong engine that is cheap in taxes and insurance. Compared to vag 1.5 tsi is slower and has the same consumption. Compared to mazda 2.0 122hp the 1.0 is quite faster.

@@e7234Adică este cel mai bun motor 1.0 ecoBoost ?

Do you like it. Much better than the slow hybrid

Because it was on a curve and the assist detects what's in front of him The way it works it'll alert the driver and 'boost' the brake response, if there's no reaction it'll automatically brake

Best of both worlds! Manual for life

It's a mild h, If u have any ideea about cars...

@@alexxandreipopescu208 Its still a hybrid you fucking mong... How many manual mild hybrids have you seen except for this?

@@tjallaballa a lot of mild hybrid cars with manual gearbox on the road today. Kia xceed, ceed, proceed, Hyundai i20, i30, Ford Puma, Fiesta, Mazda 3, cx30, Nissan Qashqai. Also the electric engine helps only till 3000rpm if I'm not wrong

Ford is built in usa though being the costliest

The 125 hp version is ok. Power below 2000 rpm is shit, but if you rev it, it's good up to 160 easily, 190 if you abuse the engine

Was that the cx-5? I'd take that engine any day, but it is a bit underpowered for such a suv.

@@TESTDRIVEFREAK Du bist der beste Danke dir.

sorry, what means boogey?

@@Sim-903 To boogey is to move quickly.

i can answer about the 125hp 1.0 no mhven and mhev. The mhev feels more powerful at low revs, it is like it pushes more for the same amount of throttle. in the top end they perform almost the same i am not able to feel a difference. the new mhev one does get better consumption but only by a margin less than 0.5L/100km. So it is not noticeable when i refill. The real deal would be going for the 155hp one as it has 1) shorter gearing (faster acceleration) 2) more torque and 3) better top end

So what do you think...should i be happy with my decision to buy the 1.0cc 125ps (non mhev) version? Or i should regret that i didn't wait a little in order to buy the mhev version or the 155ps version?

@@peri8728 i am waiting to try the 155 version. This summer i will change cars from 125ps no mhev to whatever i find. These videos don't really make it obvious to feel a difference so small between cars.

@@peri8728 i'm 100% sure that you don't lose by buying the non mhev to the 125 mhev, but the 155 would have better top end power. Like when you get to 5500rpm and the car feels dead? with 155 it would feel a bit less dead and more willing to get to the 6000rpm. The only problems i had with the 125 was 4 adults and having to overtake a truck. Man i would love those extra horses because the car (focus 2018) felt dead when i was pushing it to 5500rpm and still not enough acceleration

@@e7234 Ι have only 4.000km and i have not a complete image. But till now i am satisfied, and i have the option in the future to make an improvement to the engine. I have many friends who have done it and it is safe. 150ps and 230nm plus the overboost i think it is super enough!

You can buy a normal st line with the 155 hybrid engine. At least here in germany.

@@RustyHeartsTOV ok understand...here in Italy st line x with 155 hp has Digital display and sport pack

Not a big difference in power/performance, mostly fuel consumption Check on ultimatespecs

You can feel the difference. I dont think you did wrong as the 125ps is proven and reliable. The 155ps is not proven yet.

@@creatineenjoyer7345 It's basically the same engine, so if the 125 hp is reliable its big brother should be just as much.

@@julosx it doesnt really work like that. Higher horsepower will always decrease reliabilty slightly unless one has lowered the compression ratio which i doubt ford did as lowering compression ratio increases fuel consumption(but increases reliability)

Better than new Škoda Octavia,Toyota,Etc.

I have 2019 Focus ST and after 1,5 years of using it (16k) it started to make annoying noise from inside driver doors,when playing music...it's when bass is punching,so annoying...Also strange noise coming from rear suspension,when hitting bumps or potholes...Apart from that its OK,maybe few finishing details on the floor ,where seats rails are.

In Germany there is no full digital display for the Fiesta, yet. The 155 hp-version also has analog instruments. Top speed as declared by Ford is 219 km/h.

@@larsw.3240 Also for the Focus? This is a Focus. And why in Italy the speed declared should be less? {211 km/h)

@@marphy2516 Oh sorry, you are right! Obviously I got confused there. The Focus is available with analog or digital instruments. Don't know for what edition the fully digital display is standard. In the beginning of the video it states a top speed of 211 km/h, indeed. That might be because the Focus is heavier than the Fiesta. Since the speedometer usually isn't completely accurate the higher speed probably is due to the combination of downhill driving and overstatement. Greetings form Germany, stay safe!

@@larsw.3240 No problem :). I know that the full digital display on focus is std only on ST line X 155 hp. Than, yes, is possible that the overspeed is due to the reasons you sayd. P. S. It will be my next car, arrive in may 2021. I'm waiting for.. 🤞 Regards from Italy.

Speed on the dials is ALWAYS higher, as measured with GPS.

My friend recorded this video, he lives near US army base thats why many american cars driving around. And US trucks convoy at 2:45. Thats nice project about your fiesta tuning :)

Just watch the headgasket. If anything will go on the 1.0l 100bph then its that. They apparently put on a slightly better headgasket for the 125 and 155 (not sure about the hybrid models) in order to improve reliability with the higher power output. So if you do map it, thats the point of concern. Ofc just make sure you scour the forums before you take the plunge (I have one myself, 1.0T 100bph in a fiesta stline. Soon to be sold unfortunately)

@@TheBritishMatt Hmmm thats odd. I personally had different findings about the mechanical differences between the 100hp amd 125 hp versions. I talked to the guys at Ford when i picked up my 2020 Fiesta those few months ago, as well as to a local Tuning company that i got a quote from. And according to them both the 100 and 125 Horsepower versions are 100% mechanically identical, the 125 Hp version just has an overboost when you accelerate hard. The 100Hp version is just restricted more from the factory by means of ECU mapping. Apparently it's for marketing reasons in order to make the Upper trim level Fiestas such as the Titanium and new Vignale even more appealing and worth their higher price point at no real extra cost. I did although find that apparently the 100, and 125 Hp variants are abit different than the 140 Hp versions. The 140 Hp models have the same Gearbox and Clutch, but more sporty gear ratios, and it apparently has a slightly thicker head gasket according to moat people on forums. But this id for the MK8 Fiesta, its different in the MK7, apparently there the 100hp version had a small turbo, and the 125 and 140 hp versions shared a more capable turbo. Now with the MK8 the 100 , 125, and 140 apparently all have the same turbo as well. At least this is what i was able to gather from research

@@dean8067 I may be wrong, as I forget things often 😅 That and I'm not very technically minded But If I remember correctly, I heard the 140 definitely had a slightly larger turbo as well as the thicker headgasket. Companies like BlueFin have changed their map in revent times to lower the power increase, I can only assume due to reliability As for the mk7s, I had a work colleague that blew a headgasket only a week after the map. How on earth he managed that, who knows. But the car was toast from that point. He stripped it for parts and scrapped the rest

@@TheBritishMatt Yeah it seems most people are in agreement about the 140Hp model's changes haha. And damn thats bad, there's also a guy on KZfaq who pushed his MK7 Fiesta 1.0 To over 200 Horsepower on stock internals and parts. Not sure which version it was originally, but it apparently caught fire while driving. I honestly would be scared of things like this. But thats why I'll stick to around 160 to 170 Horsepower even with all the mods in mind. I want to keep the car for at least 2 or 3 years so it needs to be reliable.

here at 16:00 in this link: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/hMmkl5WYpqyaZmg.html

These engines have been on the market for 10 years and they proved being pretty reliable.

Yes, the 3 cylinder 1,0 Ecoboost is available on the Fiesta, the Focus, the Puma and even the Transit, but not the Kuga.

This is a mild-hybird car (MHEV)! The very small electric motor is only assisting the combustion engine, but this car can't drive fully electric and it can't be charged externally.

@@warthunder8624 The Previous shape fiesta 1.0 E/b they made a limited Zetec S black or Red edition I think they had 140bhp with no hybrid , People were remapping them upto around 170bhp which considering a Stock ST 1.6 was putting out 180bhp weren’t bad at all.

The Ford Focus MK4 is fuel efficient and possibly one of the most fun cars in the segment. The assistance systems are pretty much a norm nowadays and will eventually be mandatory, just like ABS and ESP did. It's not like manufacturers are prioritizing assistance systems over other crucial areas of their cars, so what's your point?

just imagine if the system would have been hard braking because it has detected a fake dangerous situation. Hard braking, at that speed, on a downhill while turning left...

It did happend me with audi a4 2 years ago at 200 kmh cruising at night on autobahn then suddenly hard brake for about 1-2 sek down to about 140 kmh or something. Even i was on left lane and other car was on right lane and nothing front of me. It was in almost straight flat autobahn with very light left corner

@@unknown-hl4bj exactly...

@Harim Sorry for asking, but why on earth would you need gloves to drive a modern car on the autobahn even at high speeds? These vehicles are equipped with electric power steering and mostly have leathered steering wheels. In addition to that you only provide minimal steering inputs.
