The 2008 Focus’ interior now has an elegant stylish look. It is more spacious to accommodate the entire family. The seats are comfortable and protective even for long distance driving. Its driver seat is fully adjustable to accommodate people of different sizes. Its back seat is also comfortable and large. The steering wheel is wrapped in leather for better and precise driving.
The most startling addition to the 2008 Focus is the Sync system. This high-tech system allows the owner to make hands-free calls while driving. It also allows the driver to set digital audio players, without removing his/her hands from the steering wheel, through a voice-recognition system. It is also equipped with the standard six airbags for safety. Anti-lock brakes are available on an optional basis.
Its exterior was also refurbished. The hatchback design of its predecessors was removed. The 2008 Ford Focus now comes in coupe or sedan cars. Its SE cars’ alloy wheels are a standard 15-inch, while the SES versions have 16-inch alloy wheels.
Looking into the power and performance aspects, the new Focus has more power than the previous models. The 2008 Ford Focus has a 2.0-liter 4-cylinder engine that provides 140 horsepower. It also has a five-speed manual or 4-speed automatic transmission. You can also save some on fuel with the Focus’ latest version. It is estimated that you will consume only around 24 miles per gallon along the city and 35 mpg on the highway with the manual transmission. In automatic transmission, fuel economy is the same except that in the highway you will spend less fuel with only 33 mpg usage.
A silent drive can be expected in the 2008 Ford Focus whether in the city streets or on the highways. It is considered as the quietest car among its class. When it comes to prices, the car is relatively cheaper. Compared to the other cars, Focus costs less while having more features and a slightly powerful engine.
Ford has certainly succeeded in overhauling its Focus models including making Ford Focus contract hire popular. Although the body chassis is still the same, the additions have definitely made the 2008 Ford Focus more fun and comfortable to drive on for personal or contract hire users.
