Story

2002 Ford Focus SVT

The Focus SVT brought Ford's Special Vehicle Team program to a compact three-door hatchback. This page covers the North American 2002 model, not an ordinary Focus, the European ST170 or the RS.

Documented configuration

Ford's exact-year brochure documents the SVT-specific engine and six-speed transaxle. The transmission uses two output shafts with different final-drive ratios; a single unqualified axle ratio would misrepresent its design. The specification table separates the optional winter package from standard equipment.

Photo pending

The technical page is available while research continues for an exact-year exterior photograph with verified reuse rights. No photograph, image license or visual originality claim is implied. Brochure illustrations remain reference evidence and are not reproduced here.

Production totals, original pricing and unreviewed option combinations remain open evidence gaps.
