The rated 27 mpg is on the money. I have gotten as high as 37 on the highway. Nice feeling to pass the gas station more often without having to buy gas. see full Ford Focus review

Unconfirmed reports have stated people getting up to 39 miles per gallon highway with the 5 speed. This is very appealing to me as gas prices will rise again. see full Ford Focus review

On my daily 250 round trip commute I average around 33MPG. There are new vehicles that get better but they usually come with higher price tags which offset any fuel savings. see full Ford Focus review
