This ranking is based on our analysis of published reviews and test drives of the Ford Focus, as well as reliability and safety data. The 2014 Ford Focus SE is ranked: #5 in Affordable Small Cars #3 in Affordable Compact Cars Nimble handling, good fuel economy and an upscale interior are just a few of the reasons why the 2014 Ford Focus ranks a notch above most other compact cars. The 2014 Ford Focus is powered by a four-cylinder engine, which most reviewers say provides adequate power. A five-speed manual transmission is standard and a six-speed automated manual transmission is optional. The EPA reports that the base 2014 Focus gets 26/36 mpg city/highway, which is good for a compact car. An optional SFE package boosts fuel economy to 28/40 mpg. Test drivers agree that the Ford Focus is one of the best-handling cars in the class. They say the Focus offers precise steering, as well as a well-tuned suspension that provides great cornering ability and a comfortable ride. Additionally, many critics note that all of the Focus' performance attributes are amplified if you opt for the Focus ST. They say that the Focus ST combines a powerful turbocharged engine with exceptional handling, which makes it one of the best performers in the class. Auto writers say that the Focus' cabin has an eye-catching design, and that it's built with nicer materials than many affordable small cars. Most reviewers agree that the Focus' front seats are comfortable, with plenty of head- and legroom. However, one test driver writes that you'll find a more spacious back seat in cars like the Volkswagen Jetta and Honda Civic. Additionally, some critics note that optional tech features, such as the MyFord Touch infotainment system, take time to master. The 2014 Ford Focus comes with standard features that are typical for the class, and a four-speaker stereo with an auxiliary input jack and CD player. Options and features on higher trims include leather upholstery, heated front seats, satellite radio, rear parking sensors, and Ford's Sync system with Bluetooth phone and audio streaming and a USB port.

2015 Ford Mustang EcoBoost flogged and analyzed by Ignition
Mon, 13 Oct 2014Aside from the way it looks and perhaps its independent rear suspension, the biggest bit of news on the 2015 Mustang may be the inclusion of its 2.3-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder engine. That blown mill marks the first time since the Mustang SVO of the '80s that a turbo has been fitted under the engine of Ford's pony car.
The Mustang EcoBoost is the subject of the latest episode of Ignition from Motor Trend, giving us a great look at the technical, nitty-gritty side of the turbocharged coupe. Covering it from bow to stern, host Carlos Lago walks us through the boosted Ford before taking to the track for some driving impressions, with particular praise given to the low-end grunt of the 2.3-liter mill.
Check out the full video and then let us know which 2015 Mustang has your interest piqued the most - the EcoBoost four, the 5.0L V8 or the entry-level V6.
Watch these Australian Ford and Holden muscle cars duke it out
Wed, 21 Aug 2013Australia's Motoring has put together a little video on two of the great performance vehicles available down under - the Holden VF Commodore HSV GTS and the Ford Falcon FPV GT R-Spec. And while both FPV and the Falcon might be on their way out, there's still plenty of time for a little head-to-head comparison between the two.
The cars aren't all that well evenly matched, though. The Ford boasts a 5.0-liter, supercharged V8, which the Aussies measure out at 449 horsepower and 420 pound-feet of torque. The HSV, though, with its Corvette-derived, 6.2-liter, supercharged V8 is just too powerful - 576 hp and 545 lb-ft of torque.
Predictably, it doesn't end too well for the Ford. As the guys from Motoring point out, the new VF Commodore is just too new and too good, with its extra power and its adaptive dampers (GM's excellent MagnaRide). Interestingly, Motoring did point out that the Holden's electric steering is better than the Ford's hydraulic steering, which is a lot like a Porsche purist saying they prefer water-cooled engines to air cooled.
