Default Re: How does the 1.3lt Turbo go?

The Focus features a 1.5lt not a 1.3lt.

While I don't own one, I have driven a ST-Line a few times, the engine is decently strong, in fact is has more power and torque than most of it's competitors. Importantly, peak torque is made at 1750rpm making everyday driving and overtaking more effortless than say a N/A 2.0 found in a Mazda 3 or Toyota Corolla.

Sorry, I meant 1.5lt.
That's good to hear. When lockdown ends I might try to take one for a test drive.
