Ford Australia has cut prices across its 2013 Focus 'LW MkII' range, adding a new $19,990 drive-away price for the manual-equipped Ambiente sedan model.
Following news of Ford's SYNC infotainment system debuting with the Focus range in August, the line-up's new pricing sees as much as $2410 cut from some models.
The 2013 Focus range opens with a new Manufacturer's List Price (MLP) of $20,290 on the Ambiente - down from $21,990 - and currently available with a $19,990 drive-away price.
Manual-equipped versions of the Sport and Trend models also get new drive-away pricing, listed at $27,490 and $22,890 respectively. Both also list 2013 MLP savings between $2000 and $2410.
Other price cuts include $850 from the Titanium models, with the top-shelf trim now opening with the 2.0 litre petrol automatic hatch at $32,990 MLP - down from $33,840.
The updated pricing of the 2013 Focus range brings the cost of entry below the Holden Cruze, which opens with a $21,490 MLP.
It also scrapes in beneath the opening price of the top-selling Mazda3 range, which starts with a $20,330 MLP for the Mazda3 Neo.
The popular Toyota Corolla range - due for replacement next month - begins at $20,990 MLP for the Ascent sedan and hatch models.
