CarGurus' Review
Ford reworked the U.S. Focus in 2005. New for 2007 are optional interior trims, two exterior colors, upgraded sound systems, and a powertrain warranty extension to 5 years/100,000 miles. The ST Sedan is the high-performance trim.
A 2.3-liter, DOHC, 16-valve, high-performance inline four producing 151 hp powers the ST, paired with a 5-speed manual transmission. The EPA rates this engine at 22/32 mpg.
The ST comes only in the four-door sedan body and features a sport-tuned and chrome-tipped exhaust, a sport suspension, four-wheel disc brakes with traction control, unique 16-inch alloy wheels, and a rear deck spoiler and lower body moldings.
Reviewers naturally had the most fun in this version of the Focus, which is noticeably quicker than those with the 2.0-liter engine. The ride is smooth and handling above average. Quick and responsive steering gives good road feedback. According to reviewers, the handling is decidedly European in firmness and response.
As befits a compact economy car, the interior has a "clean and stylish look" with a well-arranged dashboard with clearly labeled controls and easy-to-read instruments. Generously padded seats, front and back, are comfortable with three-point seat belts for five in the roomy interior. The rear seats are 60/40-split folding. The sedan offers a 14.8-cubic-foot trunk. Some reviews complain of "unimpressive" material quality, though Consumer Guide found "good cabin materials and workmanship for the price."
Standard safety features are a bit of a disappointment, with no back seat head restraints, side-impact airbags, ABS, or traction control on the base trim levels. Front disc/rear drum brakes are standard. The National Highway Transportation Safety Administration awarded four stars in the frontal test and three and a half in side tests. The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety tests without side airbags resulted in the worst ("Poor") rating and a median ("Acceptable") rating for rear impacts.
Reviewers regard the Focus as an inexpensive but dated fun car for the daily commute.
