Ford Focus 2021 review: Active
Read the article
By Peter Anderson · 02 Jun 2021
Ford's Focus redefined how good a hatchback could be over 20 years ago. It's still doing it, too. The Focus Active is an attempt to cash in on the ongoing sales dominance of SUVs without having to go full SUV. It probably shouldn't work, but Ford is good at this sort of thing.

The Mustang automatic has not been the critical darling that the manual is. Dithery, sometimes clunky, it's not great in the four-cylinder. But with a few years behind it and an MY21 update, perhaps Ford has ironed out the kinks in the self-shifter's character.

The Puma ST-Line V is Ford's cheekiest tilt yet at the Mazda CX-3 class, combining striking design with a sporty chassis, to make it a keen driving proposition. That said, thoughtful packaging, a gutsy yet efficient powertrain and a high level of standard safety features reveal other sides to this compact Euro crossover. Prices are a bit on the high side, but there's also plenty to like here too.

The Ford Puma might not be the biggest light SUV, nor the cheapest, but it combines its too-cute looks with a smile-inducing drive experience not often found in this segment. This is a truly urban SUV, so we asked the truly urban Chesto to put it through its paces to see if the good outweighs the bad.

By Matt Campbell · 22 Apr 2021
The Ford Ranger line-up will never stop growing. Now there's a Ranger FX4 Max, which fills the previously unimagined niche between the XLT, Wildtrak and Raptor models, with a sensible setup and some intentional additions from the flagship ute that make it something different, yet very similar, all at the same time. It's a weird idea, but it works.

The BaseCamp is a limited-edition Ford Everest fitted out with adventure-ready extras, such as a 76mm black nudge bar, LED light bar, a snorkel, a Rhino Rack roof-top storage platform and a Rhino Rack Sunseeker awning. It also has 'BaseCamp' decals.There are only 450 BaseCamps available, but is it worth the money, or should you simply buy an Everest and source your own aftermarket gear?

By Marcus Craft · 04 Mar 2021
Ford is already offering a Ranger for pretty much everyone in its current ute line-up, so will its FX4 Max, a beefed-up and bush-ready 4WD load-hauler find favour with an increasingly demanding ute-loving market? Especially when this special edition ute is trying to be equal parts fun machine and work truck.

Ford's new Puma is more than just a quaint little SUV with a cool big cat name. It's part of a renewed push by the blue oval to be seen as more than just the Ranger and Mustang brand.

The new Ford Escape is a huge improvement over the last model and looks completely different, bringing it into proper contention in the mid-size SUV category.

By Marcus Craft · 22 Feb 2021
Traditionally, single-cab chassis utes have been purpose-built for work, and work only, with very few concessions, if any, to comfort or safety.But modern-day utes are nice to drive, offer decent levels of safety and can even be considered a somewhat refined daily driver.We put a 3.2-litre turbo-diesel XL single-cab chassis 4x4 through its paces with a one tonne load onboard.
