n 2002, we in the U.S. finally received a hot hatch worthy of the particularly exclusive name SVT, or Special Vehicle Team. After lusting over the forbidden fruit known as the Mk. 1 Ford Focus RS overseas, the American public was gifted the Focus SVT. While not quite the RS, the SVT stood to hold position as a very competitive hot hatch in the U.S. market. The Focus SVT achieves a 0-60mph time of 7.5 seconds and goes on to a top speed of 125 mph with 170hp (126.8 kw) and 145 lb-ft of torque. These numbers aren’t impressive by modern standards, but if you take into account that the Focus SVT actually beat Honda at the N/A sport compact game by ten whole horsepower at the time, one can realize how much actual effort went into producing this car for enthusiasts.
The SVT also proves it’s aim for enthusiasts once you look at the other upgrades over the normal Focus. Engine enhancements included the use of a DOHC Zetec four-pot, with updated pistons, cam profiles, a two-stage intake manifold, and variable intake cam timing. Aiding in the SVT’s exhale is freer flowing cats and an exhaust refined to let the Zetec engine growl and rasp how it likes. The presence of a Getrag sourced 6-speed manual further demonstrates the enthusiast-oriented nature of the Focus SVT.
When it comes to handling, the SVT is no American can’t-go-around-corners-quickly-without-a-professional-at-the-wheel quarter-mile-king sort. Completely overhauled suspension and handling bits are laden throughout, including 11.8-inch (300mm) vented front brake rotors and 17-inch alloy wheels encased in 215/45ZR rubber. To hold your buns in place while pulling lateral G’s, deep Recaro front buckets are standard kit.
