Purchased this car to replace an 07 Focus SES and was blown away at how it has matured.
Ride is much smoother then the 07 model yet maintains great handling performance.
Engine is quiet and smooth but can growl nicely when pushed.
Interior is cozey, comfortable seats and full featured climate control.
Navigation and entertainment are easy to use.
The only 2 issues i have that i did not rate 5 stars on are as follows.
1: During spirited driving the transmission shift strategy needs a little work.
2: Fuel economy. You would think on a car 10 years newer there would be some improvement in fuel economy but it actually lost .2L/100 compared to the 07 SES.
Overall the car is still amazing and a joy to drive.
