Like the Visos or C-MAX concept, the Focus concept is also about the details. The car itself is somewhat plain

without them. Although the grille is similar in shape and appearance to those used on the Mondeo and C-Max, a unique interconnecting hexagon pattern can be picked out in detail. All exterior lighting, including headlights, taillights and foglights, make use of ultra-bright LED lighting in unique patterns and designs. Although the headlights looks similar to those used on the C-Max, the individual components, such as the vertical turn signals, are all encased in what look like a solid LED unit. The taillights, which feature triangular reverse lights with orange turn signals that weave underneath, are wrapped around by the red brake light. The white fog lamps mimic the look of the chrome-tipped exhaust pipes inset into the same valance.

There is no doubt that the production model will ride on smaller aluminum wheels and tires.
