2010 Ford Focus Reviews, Pricing & Specs
What owners say
"Overall, drivers find the 2010 Ford Focus to be a fun, economical, and reliable car. They appreciate its good gas mileage, particularly when commuting, and many enjoy its responsive handling and stylish design. However, some drivers have noted that it lacks power and performance compared to other vehicles, and there are occasional complaints about interior quality and road noise."
Love this car. With a mix of street and freeway driving I am averaging over 31 mpg (manual transmission) and that's with a semi-heavy foot. This is an outstanding commuter car. I love the sync. The bluetooth phone feature is very easy to use along with the voice usb feature for my ipod. I really like the appearance of the car. I have the SES model with the 17 inch wheels and spoiler. The handling is phenomenal for a car that gets easily 30+ mpg. The sport suspension on the SES is highly worth the upgrade. The ride is surprisingly smooth considering the 17" wheels with 45 series low profile tires. Performance is very reasonable again considering the mileage it gets. I have no problems accelerating on large hills on the freeway and can easily maintain 80+ mph on those hills. Passing can slightly be a chore but is not a problem with a little room. I purchased this vehicle as a commuter but I truly enjoy driving it.
February 22, 2010Love everything about, I never thought of Ford as a sporty car until I got mine. I get lots of compliments. Has plenty of get up and go for a 4 cyl. Handles great on the road. Hugs the corners.
February 9, 2013Performance- it has very little. Since the car is quite sizable and the engine quite small, it doesnt have much get up. Build Quality- its a Ford. While everyone hails the progress of Ford, they still have a lot of progressing left to do. Appearance- its oddly proportioned. Cost of ownership- the only redeeming value of this car is that its cheap to buy and cheap to maintain. Fun factor- It doesnt have a lot going for it in this category. Its suspension, while insanely firm going over bumps is also extremely wobbly through corners.

August 17, 2010The Focus quality was much higher than other brands we looked at (Kia, Aveo, Pontiac). For the money, the Focus SEL was loaded with everything we wanted including a leather interior and SYNC system for hands-free bluetooth operation of our cellphones.
January 15, 2010I got this car to replace my 2001 Ford Ranger, I was only getting about 14 mpg. Now I'm averaging 30+ now. Its my first fwd car and so far I love it. Its fun to drive and gets great fuel economy.
May 1, 2010Great first car ,easy on gas. Economical to maintain.
February 28, 2024car is very practical for some one looking for a cheap car that will always start and get them to where they need to go with out having to cut back on styling or power. a very good all around car
April 19, 2015I can tow a trailer with this car, that hauls motorcycles, or jets skis, so works just fine for me. If I had a family I would need a small suv, and suffer the gas mileage. runs great, I have put on 30k miles in a year.
January 25, 2015This is a great car for a single granny like me - it holds my grandsons in their car seats comfortably and I have no concerns about safety. It accelerates when I need it to, there are no rattles, and no blind spots.
April 18, 2014I absolutely love driving this car. Its like driving a go-kart. Gets up and goes and turns really easily. Its really cheap to own, gets about 35 MPG, and I really only need to fill up once a week and I drive 60 miles a day. This car gets about 450 miles on a full tank before it hits E.
