Ford Focus once upon a time in a generation of young people in the heart of a certain position, it is able to compete with the Volkswagen Golf, the price of the car is also perennially strong, the violence and muscle of the American car will be shown in this little guy is extremely thorough, the monthly sales of 10,000 plus a piece of cake, in the same level of car competitiveness.
However, the current Ford Focus is fully in line with the saying: a good man does not mention the bravery of the year. Since the beginning of 2019, sales have been blocked, more than five thousand are very difficult, the market position is completely worse than before, last year's monthly sales were only three thousand, not as good as many domestic brand models. Why there is such a big contrast, the root of all these problems may be in the three-cylinder machine.
In 2019, Fox replaced the three-cylinder engine, domestic consumers have been very taboo about the three-cylinder machine, and its own shortcomings cannot be completely solved for the time being, although the car company tries to use refined technology to make up for the shortcomings of the three-cylinder engine, but it is only improved to a certain extent.
Three-cylinder engine for car companies for the benefits of obvious, first of all, under the role of the environment, fuel emissions are limited, in order to echo the requirements of the country, reduce emissions to protect the environment is a good thing, normal should be supported, but all this will act on consumers, let the people pay, secondly, the cost of the three-cylinder machine is much lower than the four-cylinder machine, so that car companies can gain an advantage in the price of the car.
In fact, consumers are not 100% boycott of the three-cylinder machine, before Buick Yinglang also used a three-cylinder engine, sales did not drop but increased, the reason is that people use the right pricing, and Fox uses the three-cylinder machine, selling the price of the four-cylinder engine, the car companies want to hold what benefits in their own hands, which is a bit unprepared. Modern consumers are not fools and will not let you slaughter!
And many consumers said that in the process of subsequent use of the three-cylinder engine, the driving texture will gradually decline, the acceleration capacity will be weakened, and the instability will be exposed over time.
Fortunately, in the latest declaration chart, we see that the new Ford Focus will cancel the 1.5T three-cylinder engine, and finally let the four-cylinder engine appear, from the power improvement data, it is not very obvious, but the stability of the four-cylinder engine must be above the three-cylinder engine, I don't know if the Fox with the new engine will usher in the spring again?
