Does the Ford Focus have a turbo?

Yes, the Ford Focus can be equipped with a turbocharged engine. The Ford Focus offers several engine options, including a turbocharged 1.0-liter EcoBoost three-cylinder and a turbocharged 2.3-liter four-cylinder in the high-performance Focus ST and Focus RS models.


Turbocharged Engines in the Ford Focus


The base Ford Focus comes standard with a naturally aspirated 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine, but buyers can opt for a turbocharged 1.0-liter EcoBoost three-cylinder engine as an upgrade. This small but mighty turbocharged engine produces 123 horsepower and 125 lb-ft of torque, providing a nice boost in power over the base engine.


For those seeking even more performance, the Ford Focus ST and Focus RS models feature more powerful turbocharged engines. The Focus ST is equipped with a turbocharged 2.3-liter four-cylinder engine that generates 252 horsepower and 270 lb-ft of torque. The even more potent Focus RS ups the ante with a 2.3-liter turbocharged four-cylinder that produces 350 horsepower and 350 lb-ft of torque.


Benefits of Turbocharging


Turbocharging is a technology that uses the exhaust gases from the engine to spin a turbine, which in turn forces more air into the engine's cylinders. This allows the engine to produce more power from a smaller displacement, without sacrificing fuel efficiency.



  • Increased power output: Turbocharging allows the engine to produce more horsepower and torque, resulting in better acceleration and performance.

  • Improved fuel efficiency: Turbocharging enables the use of a smaller, more efficient engine, which can improve fuel economy compared to a larger, naturally aspirated engine.

  • Downsizing potential: Turbocharging allows automakers to downsize engine displacement while maintaining or even improving performance, further enhancing fuel efficiency.


The availability of turbocharged engines in the Ford Focus lineup provides buyers with the option to choose a more powerful and efficient powertrain, depending on their driving needs and preferences.
