Pros
Enjoyable to drive
Ample room for tall passengers
Excellent Ecoboost petrol engines

Cons
Some rivals have bigger boots
Ford's new car warranty is short compared with those offered by Hyundai and Kia
Entry-level cars with torsion beam suspension aren't as good to drive

The CarGurus verdict
There are more striking family cars out there, others still that have flashier interiors, and still others that are more reliable. The Ford Focus offers a good range of commendable petrol and diesel engines, though, and in terms of safety and road holding, it is right up there with the very best, if not one step ahead.

Don’t be put off by the small displacement three-cylinder engines. They’re all turbocharged, which means they punch well above their weight. They’re also more charismatic than a conventional four-cylinder motor. Pick the right engine from the extensive line up for your particular needs and you’ll enjoy a good blend of performance, powertrain refinement and fuel efficiency.

Meanwhile, the sporty Focus ST is a very good all-rounder without being truly exceptional in any one area. Whereas other hot hatches compromise on day-to-day comfort to deliver a more thrilling driving experience, the Ford prefers to deliver consistently across the board, being both effortless to use everyday and fun to drive on a great road.
