Acceleration tests, exhaust sound, plus drag races. Paul Maric puts the Ford Focus ST automatic up against the manual version to see which is louder and quicker and then the winner goes head-to-head against the Volkswagen Golf GTI. We are calling this series the Dragparison!

It's a comparison at the drag strip. Let us know if you like it and what else you'd like to see. But, until then, watch the 2020 Ford Focus ST automatic drag race against the 2020 Ford Focus ST manual and then watch the winner take on the 2020 Volkswagen Golf GTI. Watch to find out who wins!
