I do believe there is no replacement in displacement.
Thus, mid/high range of CFE will never be able to compete with Focus.

You might argue that some other low engine capacity turbocharged could accelerate to post 160km/h effortlessly but let not forget that CFE is a lower boost turbocharged and without direction injection and supercharged (if you compare to twincharged golf mk6 and jetta).

CFE will be a hell fun engine to drive with, if it comes with more horsepower. I would say something around 150hp would be fun enough. Certainly not the 138hp.
