From the spacious storage space to the wide range of trim levels to convenience features to a very reasonable price, customers and Ford patrons have certainly been flocking to buy the Ford Focus.

As for the present Ford Focus' model line up, the list includes a choice of four different engines among which three are variations of an I4 engine. Along with that, this vehicle also provides a wide range of choice for its trim levels with seven choices. The options package is still another story to tell. This vehicle has been made available as a sedan with four doors, a wagon with four doors, and as a hatchback with two doors or four doors. Among the features that this vehicle boasts of include an AM/FM stereo, a split-folding rear seat, power windows, power mirrors, power locks, upgraded stereos, a cruise control system, a tilt and telescoping steering wheel, leather seating, an in-dash CD changer, antilock brakes, traction control, stability control, side airbags, an MP3 compatible CD player, 15 inch wheels made of steel, a keyless entry system, air conditioning, fog lamps, low profile Pirelli tires, a spoiler, a bright finish exhaust tip, and a sunroof as well.

People who were able to take the seat behind the wheel of the 2006 Ford Focus has claimed that this car is totally fun to drive and also provides great fuel mileage. It has mileage ratings of 20 plus mpg for city driving and 30 plus for highway traversing. As for the configurations and the instruments found in its interior, one would not find it hard to decipher and interpret. The cabin has the capability to take in a maximum passenger capacity of five people. Its total cargo volume reaches an even 73 cubic feet.
