Anyone heard any updates? Apparently a source 'close to the issue' that wished to remain unnamed told Reuters that Ford is delivering 6 Ford Focus Electric vehicles to each of the 67 initial rollout dealerships in California, New York and New Jersey...

Whit - I'm going to be optimistic and say June 1st! I pick that date because Ford said the Focus electric would start deliveries in the Spring of 2012. May is definitely spring, but June is mostly a summer month so I think Ford will be pushing to get the initial releases of the Ford Focus...

I'm not sure anyone has really purchased a Ford Focus Electric yet - Ford says it's available, but it seems to be a realllllly slow rollout! Did you notice this list of focus electric dealers in another thread on this forum? Your name Voltcrazy - is that crazy about the Chevy Volt, or crazy...

With the Ford Focus Electric costing almost $40,000 and the standard internal combustion engine focus costing less than $20,000, there's a huge spread. IMHO, there's no way electric vehicles will become mainstream until this spread lessens. It is understandable why it costs so much, and there...

I thought reality TV was dead? And now Ford thinks it's a good way to get the word out there about their Ford Focus Electric? Interesting idea I guess, but I don't know that it will go 'viral'.

Welcome to the Ford Focus Electric forum! I'm excited to see more people signing up - the more people on here, the more info will be available. Once the Ford Focus Electric starts actually being produced we should really see things take off and have access to tons of good info!!

Sorry, forgot to mention the article is from here: http://www.myelectriccarforums.com/ford-focus-electric-receives-epa-ratings-and-beats-the-leaf/

It's about time! The Ford Focus Electric has finally received the Environmental Protection Agencies ratings on fuel economy and distance per charge based on the US test cycle. The Ford Focus Electric is rated at 105 MPGe (city and highway combined), which puts it above the Nissan Leaf by 6 MPGe...

Found an interesting article about the MyFord app and the Ford Focus Electric, it's titled "MyFord Mobile app makes wireless keyfobs look like antiques" The Ford Focus Electric debuted at the CES last year and is planned to be in dealerships early this year. Since it's been a long time since...

Of course I can't find the link, but I think it was on this Ford Focus Electric forum where somebody had talked about a turbine powered tow behind generator. Any generator that you stored in the trunk would have to be so tiny (so it's light enough to pull out and use when necessary) that it...

This electric vehicle is really sweet - but like every other concept car, I have a hard time getting excited about it, because the production model is usually some watered-down version that's made to appeal to Grandma and Junior all at the same time. Actually, the Evos looks kinda similar to...

Here's another classic example of people making news out of nothing, and yet, here I go again posting it :) WardsAuto released an article discussing how Ford was still pushing ahead with the Ford Focus Electric amidst all of the controversy of the Chevy Volt battery pack and fire issues. But...

Wow - super excited about the chance to finally order the Ford Focus Electric! Although some of my excitement could change depending on what the price of the Ford Focus Electric will be... Thanks for keeping me on top of things, Ford Focus Electric Forum!

Green Car journal is having a green car of the year contest, and the Ford Focus Electric is one of the five finalists, and the only American car finalist. The Ford Focus Electric is competing against the Mitsubishi i Electric Car, the Honda Civic GX natural gas, the Toyota Prius v hybrid and the...

Do you like the older Ford Focus grill? I actually like the newer grill on the Ford Focus Electric - it looks like a big angry mouth, ready to devour gasoline powered vehicles that get in the Ford Focus Electric's way :lol: Perhaps they changed the way the grill looks because the Ford Focus...

Once again, Ford could get squeezed out of the electric vehicle market. They really need to release details on the 2012 Ford Focus Electric and get it to market! Nissan has announced that the 2012 Nissan Leaf orders are to begin in Colorado, Connecticut, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New Jersey...
