Judging from what we see here and what we've already heard, the coming Focus will take its design cues from the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2009/03/04/geneva-2009-fords-next-focus-the-iosis-max/">Iosis-Max concept </a>shown at Geneva last month. <br /><br />One thing we didn't see on the Iosis-Max, however, was the high-rise stance the Focus mule is sporting. We aren't sure why the mule has such elevated ground clearance, a state which seems to affect the sedan more than the wagon - perhaps there's some clandestine CUV testing or tuning going on? <br /><br />Regardless, we can't wait to see the looks of the final car. And who knows... maybe even a Focus wagon will once again find its way over this way?<br /><br />[Source: <a href="http://www.nextautos.com/spy-shots-next-generation-ford-focus-mules-spied">NextAutos</a>]<p style="padding:5px;backgr ound:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2009/03/26/spy-shots-next-ford-focus-mules-caught-testing/">Spy Shots: Next Ford Focus mules caught testing</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.autoblog.com">Autoblo g</a> on Thu, 26 Mar 2009 18:58:00 EST.
