XYZ Racing Super Sport Coilovers — Ford FOCUS MK4 HATCHBACK (Rear Multi-Link Suspension) (Cancellation Kit for Electronic Damping) 2019-2026

The MK4 Focus arrived with Ford’s short-long arm rear multi-link on the higher-spec hatchbacks, and on ST and Vignale trims it came tied to electronically controlled dampers (CCD) that quietly resist any non-OE coilover you try to bolt to them. The XYZ Racing Super Sport coilover is the answer to both problems at once: a 36-way adjustable damper for the C2-platform Focus, supplied with the cancellation harness that stops the dashboard throwing a suspension fault the moment the OE struts come off.

For a fast-road MK4 Focus that still sees the occasional trackday at Cadwell or Anglesey, this is the spec to start with. It is the Super Sport – the fast-road and weekend-track variant in the XYZ range – tuned to keep daily driveability intact while giving the chassis enough body control to actually use the front end.

What this coilover does for your 2019-2026 Ford Focus MK4 Hatchback

The MK4 Focus rides well from the factory but rolls early and runs out of compression travel quickly once you start loading the front axle. The Super Sport’s 36-way damping adjustment lets you firm the rears against the multi-link’s tendency to squat under power, while keeping the fronts compliant enough that broken B-road surfaces do not unsettle the steering. Ride height is adjustable independently of spring preload, so you can drop the car for stance without pre-loading the springs and ruining the rebound stroke.

On the ST in particular, removing the OE CCD struts and running the cancellation kit gives you a single, honest damper curve you choose – rather than the factory’s compromise between Normal, Sport and Track maps. The result is a Focus that turns in sharper, holds a line through long third-gear corners, and brakes flat into a hairpin without the nose-dive that masks pedal feel on the standard car.

About the Super Sport coilover

The Super Sport is XYZ Racing’s road-and-track damper, built around a 36-way adjustment range that runs from a road-friendly soft setting through to a stiff weekend-track tune on a single knob per corner. Construction is the height-and-damping-independent layout XYZ uses across the range, so corner weights and ride height can be set without affecting how the damper actually behaves.

XYZ describe the Super Sport as removing the harshness usually associated with lowering springs and budget coilovers, and that lines up with what the spec implies: a damper aimed at owners who want one car that does the school run on Monday and a trackday on Saturday without swapping parts. It is engineered for varied road conditions and is rated for both weekend race use and daily driving – which is the brief most MK4 Focus buyers are actually shopping for.

The cancellation kit shipped with this variant is specific to the electronic damping fitment. It signals the body control module that a healthy damper is connected at each corner, so the car does not fall back into a limp damping map or throw a permanent warning light.

Fitment for the Ford FOCUS MK4 HATCHBACK (2019-2026)

This kit is built for the MK4 Focus hatchback (chassis FO26-C) from 2019 through to 2026, specifically the variant fitted with the rear multi-link suspension rather than the simpler torsion-beam rear. The included cancellation harness is required for cars originally specified with CCD electronic damping – typically ST and higher Vignale/Active trims. Confirm your car has the multi-link rear and whether it left the factory with CCD before configuring.
