Ford Focus (second generation, North America)

The North American second-generation Ford Focus was the restyled compact car that Ford built at its Michigan Assembly Plant for the 2008 to 2011 model years. Unlike the Focus sold elsewhere in the world, it was offered only as a two-door coupe and a four-door sedan, and the hatchback and wagon were dropped. Ford kept the older C170 platform underneath and added new styling, a redesigned interior with ambient lighting and the Sync voice-controlled audio and Bluetooth system, and a lighter, stiffer chassis. One engine remained, the 2.0-liter Duratec, raised to 140 hp and rated at 35 mpg on the highway under the 2008 EPA method. The car debuted at the 2007 North American International Auto Show, a hydrogen fuel-cell Focus FCV was built from it, and production ended in late 2010.
