2016 Ford Focus ST Performance and Engine

EcoBoost 2.0L Turbocharged Four-Cylinder

The heart of the Focus ST is Ford's 2.0-liter EcoBoost inline-four with direct injection, DOHC, and variable cam timing — producing 252 horsepower and 270 lb-ft of torque in stock form. That torque number is what sets this car apart from naturally aspirated competitors. It hits early in the rev range, making the ST feel punchy and responsive in everyday driving, not just at wide-open throttle.

6-Speed Manual Transmission

Paired with a proper 6-speed manual, this is a driver's car in the truest sense. Ford's short-throw shifter and hydraulic clutch give the ST a connected feel that dual-clutch and automatic rivals simply can't replicate. If you're buying a hot hatch, this is the way to experience it.

Ford Focus ST Features and Interior

The ST trim adds a long list of performance and comfort upgrades over the standard Focus. Inside, you'll find Recaro sport seats — one of the most celebrated standard features on any mainstream performance car — along with a leather-wrapped steering wheel, Ford's SYNC infotainment system, and a 275-watt Sony audio system. The ST also includes a rear spoiler, unique ST badging, and larger front brakes. The hatchback body style keeps it practical, offering genuine cargo flexibility alongside the performance credentials.

Ford Focus ST Reliability and Ownership

The Focus ST has a strong ownership reputation among enthusiast communities. The EcoBoost 2.0 engine is a durable unit that responds well to routine oil changes and cooling system maintenance. At just under 87,000 miles, this car is well within its useful life — many ST owners push well past 150,000 miles with proper care. Common items to be aware of at this mileage include checking the clutch, inspecting for any aftermarket modifications, and ensuring the cooling system is in good shape. Overall, the Focus ST consistently earns high marks for fun-per-dollar among used performance cars.
