The Ford Focus 1.0 EcoBoost 125 (Mk4) reaches 60 mph in 8.59 s (100 km/h in 9.62 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 16.70 s, tripping the lights at 82.4 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.53 s and the eighth mile in 10.75 s.
Simulated, not measured — computed from published kerb mass, rated power, gearing and

About the Focus 1.0 EcoBoost 125 (Mk4)
The 2018 Ford Focus 1.0 EcoBoost 125 (Mk4) is a front-drive turbocharged car of 1,264 kg with 123 bhp, which works out at 98 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 2.53 s — so most of what it has to give arrives once it is already moving. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 7,682nd quickest to 60 mph, and the 275th quickest of the 789 Fords here. It leaves better than it pulls: 82.4 mph at the lights is only the 8,696th highest here, so its 0-60 flatters what it does further out. The simulation is trimmed to 2 of 2 published acceleration figures for this car.

Questions
What is the Ford Focus 1.0 EcoBoost 125 (Mk4) 0-60 time?
The Ford Focus 1.0 EcoBoost 125 (Mk4) reaches 60 mph in 8.59 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 7,682nd quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Ford Focus 1.0 EcoBoost 125 (Mk4) quarter mile time?
16.70 s at 82.4 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 10.75 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.53 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Ford Focus 1.0 EcoBoost 125 (Mk4) have?
123 bhp and 1,264 kg, which is 98 bhp per tonne. It is front-drive, turbocharged, with 6 gears and a quoted top speed of 200 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Ford Focus 1.0 EcoBoost 125 (Mk4)?
Closest here on pace: Renault Mégane Hatch 1.9 dCi 130 (8.57 s), Vauxhall Insignia Hatchback 2.0 CDTI ecoFLEX ( 160 HP) (8.60 s), Opel Astra 5dr 1.4 ECOTEC Start/Stop 125 (8.57 s). Each one can be raced against the Ford Focus 1.0 EcoBoost 125 (Mk4) in the panel at the top of this page. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
Are these real measured times?
No. Every figure on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. The Ford Focus 1.0 EcoBoost 125 (Mk4) is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 2 of its 2 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
Figures regenerated 2026-10-16. Every number on this page is computed by the simulator at build time, so the page and the app can never disagree.
