2009 2dr Coupe 143-horsepower 2.0L I4

2009 4dr Sedan 140-horsepower 2.0L I4
5-speed manual FWD		 With mixed highway and city driving and a medium heavy foot, I still average about 31mpg. see full Ford Focus review
2009 4dr Sedan 140-horsepower 2.0L I4
5-speed manual FWD		 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
2009 4dr Sedan 140-horsepower 2.0L I4
4-speed automatic FWD		 The fuel economy is great on a fixed income, and allows us to be able to do a few more things and go a few more places. see full Ford Focus review
2009 2dr Coupe 140-horsepower 2.0L I4
4-speed automatic FWD		 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
2009 4dr Sedan 140-horsepower 2.0L I4
5-speed manual FWD		 With manual, w/o cruise, highway mpg 40+, average 30+ see full Ford Focus review
