It's twu, it's twu
I'd like to see the CFD data that supports that claim.Haha for a sedan?! We are lighter and better aero
Really, since the hatch has a larger virtual decklid than the sedan I would see the hatch being more aerodynamic. So, again, I'd like to see the CFD data to support that claim as well as see what is going on with both versions.
Going merely from the CD mentioned in the specs:
Sedan - 0.297
Hatch - 0.295

The replica Zetec S grilles sure look different than stock. A bit closer to the hexagonal ST grille, a good thing imo.
Unfortunately with the launch of the MK3.5 (technically still MK3 since the chassis code is unchanged unlike when the C1 became the C1MCA and the car went from C307 to C346), fordmedia.eu has taken down the pdf with the green specifications and the drag coefficient information.
However if taken at face value what Moray Callum said is that the sedan is less aerodynamic than the hatch (0.297 v.s. 0.295), however that was in conflict with what Ford of Europe had officially published listing the sedan at 0.274 a slight reduction in drag over the hatch.
A 13 lb delta between base curb weights is negligible at best, and given that the base hatch was an SE to the S sedan it's even more impressive to note that the more well equipped hatch is just 13 lbs heavier yet is more torsionally stiff.
The slight aerodynamic advantage granted to the sedan is marginal at best as well. Having driven and owned both I still prefer the hatch, but it's a minor shame that we were denied the Estate in favor of the Escape which though based on the same underpinnings as the Focus and Focus Estate suffers from the need to be a sort of soft roader so that the people can sit up high but still drive a station wagon without admitting that's what it is.

Thanks mate!
I'd say about 50mm but hard to say the exact drop with 19's but this is compared to stock on 17's

James, every time I see your wheels it makes me wish I'd bought 19"s! Your wheels and stance are perfection mate!
