Yes, the Thule OutWay 3-Bike Rack part # TH56BV that you referenced has been confirmed to fit your 2013 Ford Focus 5-door hatchback.
If you plan on carrying any women's or alternative framed bikes without horizontal top tubes you may also be interested in purchasing a Swagman Easy-Out Women's and Alternative Frame Bike Adapter # 64005 to provide a horizontal top tube on your bikes to provide an attachment point. I attached a review video for this product also. This will allow the bikes to be carried more level and will provide more ground clearance.
