Fergus Falls, MN -- (SBWIRE) -- 03/25/2011 -- As gas prices continue to rise, the new 2012 Ford Focus may be a driver’s best defense against increasing costs. Available with an innovative automatic transmission system the new 2012 Focus averages 40mpg on the highway and 28mpg in the city. That’s better than many of the other comparable vehicles on the market including the Honda Civic, Mazda3, Toyota Corolla, Volkswagen Jetta, and even the Chevy Cruze Eco.

“Our customers tell us that fuel economy is the top reason for purchasing a Focus,” said Derrick Kuzak, group vice president, Global Product Development. “The all-new Focus meets that demand with great fuel economy, class-leading technologies and features, exceptional standards of craftsmanship and driving dynamics typically reserved for larger, more expensive vehicles.”

Rather than relying on a manual transmission for optimal fuel efficiency, Ford now offers the Super Fuel Economy (SFE) package for the 2012 Focus, which when paired with the exceptional six-speed PowerShift automatic transmission offers a truly invigorating and wallet-saving ride.
