Love the 5 best/5 worst feature breakdown. It's so detailed and nit picky that I know you've looked at the car critically. I don't get that from any other reviewer. Wish you were on Top Gear. Keep it up Mat.

Of course its manual lol

[@vladpresecan2822]

The 2017 Focus comes with SYNC 3 , which in my opinion is clearly the best infotainment system from it's class , in this video it was the SYNC 2 , one of the slowest systems i could see

[@ttmusicchannel013]

i really don't get why everyone is hating on the car... i own one since 2 years and i haven't had any problems with it in those two years. also the window in the backseats is the same as in the front seats. i think it looks really nice and yeah, the interior could be better but thats what you get for the price. period.

[@ttmusicchannel013]

Yeah maybe :)

[@ianp3732]

Thomas I get you. These people don't think. If every car is as luxurious as a BMW then less wealthy people wont be able to own a brand new car.

[@roberth7320]

Well, you can get a vauxhall astra for about the same price or even cheaper and its interior is miles ahead of the focus.

[@carlosnumbertwo]

I fucking love my focus, and with a few mods, faster than 90% of everything I come across,,,,, and pass.

[@ssmfernando]

I own this car for almost two years, exact same color, titanium 1-liter eco boost with 16". much more comfortable and no need to worry about hitting curbs. I would say, according to the today's standard, infotainment system and interior "could be" better. But folks, this model around 18K euros. it comes with very refined driving pleasure, Sony sound system, automatic pilot parking, start and stop, reverse camera, sensors everywhere, and other standard equipment for titanium trim, folding mirrors, led interior lights, daytime running lights and list goes on. Also ford focus has good reliability records. Stop complaining if you don't know. buy something else if you don't like the brand or model. period!

[@SuperSweetToffee]

"The camera was out of focus" 😂😂😂😂😂

[@MC_AFC]

Another great review. Have a 2012 Focus myself and I find it brilliant. I really like this new design on the zetec s and will consider buying one for sure.

[@petermarshall3880]

I've owned the current model Focus since it was released in November 2014, and Matt I have to disagree with every negative point you made about the focus. cheap feeling steering wheel! no headroom in the back! I'm 6' 3" and sometimes travel in the back and my head doesn't touch the ceiling. it's a very quiet ride on 17" wheels and is brilliantly screwed together. 20 months and 43,000 miles and not a single squeak or rattle. And if you want or need a bigger boot buy an estate car. A Focus estate!

[@raymondhambleton9452]

I have a 2016 Focus Ecoboost 1.0 Titanium. It's a superb car for it's size and will tackle all weather conditions with no hessitation. I've driven through flooded roads and deep snow with no problems. The driver's seat is very comfortable and doesn't cause aches on long journeys. I get about 50 mpg from the 1 litre engine which is pretty good. The display shows fuel economy of 70mpg or more. It's well built and if you you fit Mitchelin tyres, you don't get much road noise. I have my Focus serviced by a Ford dealer and they know all my car's history and only fit genuine Ford parts.

[@jezstokes8592]

Currently on my 3rd Ford Focus, great cars, never give me any trouble

[@MrRawUK]

Not a bad review Mat! The Focus is about the best you can get for that money. I rented 4 cars in 3 months (inc a Focus) when I sold my 2006 Audi a4 and have just bought a 2017 Ford Focus St line.1.0 Ecoboost. It's a lovely car to look at, sync 3 is actually very good. Driving position is great. Fuel economy is average so think twice about a 1.0 and maybe go for the 1.5 as Mat said. Rear windows are wind up? Ford.....WTF were you thinking? Road noise at speed is not great but all in all i am happy and give it 7/10. Yes the VW and Audi's are better but i would have had to spend close to £20k for one to spec, this cost me £14k.

[@aric0913]

The noises are enough to drive anyone crazy!

this car is awesome, I have the '16 with auto. it drives better than any car I've ever had and I'm 67, it has the automatic and the shuddering when you take off mostly in city driving. we live in the country and that rarely comes up. it has over 100k on it now and still drives same as new. the wife picked it out and didn't like the look of the hatchback and got the sedan. big mistake. get the hatch! loading and unloading the trunk is night and day. on ours the rear window goes so far back the opening is too small. on the back roads this thing drives like a sports car. the power is amazing for such a small car. the only thing I had to fix so far was when the trunk struts gave out

[@Kiwigucci]

I have the fourth Focus now. The last one is a station car (they all have been) 2012. And I must say it’s the best car I’ve ever had. So smooth and comfortable to drive. Really impressed that three cylinders 1,0 litres can give so much effect.

No, It's not as good looking as a Seat Leon nor does it have the build quality of a Golf.

You'll change your mind when you've driven an Ecoboost Focus! The Leon is good to drive but the Focus is miles better. don't get me started about the Golf...boring, ugly, not that good to drive, unreliable...

[@Horizon301.]

+BoschExxcel no it's not we have a fiesta and a golf and a A6 and the fiesta is the one that costs the most to run the ecoboost also has awful MLG worse then our A6 which gets the claimed 56mpg also you have to service the ford every 10,000 miles but with a diesel it's 20,000 which makes any Audi cheaper to own and the golf gets 70mpg and the quality is far better and so is the technology not to mention ford cars are worth nothing after a few years but any German car would be worth around £2000 more for the same class car e.g the polo afte two years with the same amount of miles and list price is worth £2000 more

Great review Mat! Not sure if you're aware of this, but the entry level focus here in Ireland is even more archaic.

Test drive the new Megane with the 1.5-litre diesel. It may change your mind

Sure it could, but as I dont get any discounts on renaults so megane ends up considerably more expensive. I'll likely wait a bit more and see if some news emerge about next focus. If it wont be here by end of 2017 then this exact same one from video might be it. I know its by many aspects inferior car to new Megane, but it is quite a lot cheaper for me which helps with financing and resale value.
