TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2013 Ford Focus

2013 Ford Focus Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
Year	Comment
	Like other recently designed Fords, the Focus has a tighter rear seat than most competitors. At 5-9, I can sit behind myself with perhaps an inch to spare. see full Ford Focus review

2014	4dr Sedan 103-horsepower 1.6L I4 5-speed manual FWD	The front passenger seat is cramped, especially on long journeys. My wife is smaller, so its fine for her, but Im an average sized male, about 5'11" and my left knee always aches after a while. see full Ford Focus review
2012	4dr Hatch 160-horsepower 2.0L I4 6-speed automated manual FWD	Driver seat cushion very uncomfortable after 30 minutes; feels like no cushion in seat see full Ford Focus review

2013	4dr SUV 285-horsepower 3.6L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic 4WD, part-time w/low range	If you have a long-legged person in the front, the rear seat legroom can be a bit small. A major issue however is that there are no vents in the backseat for climate control. This is especially noticeable in the winter. In order to keep my daughter warm driving in the mountains in the winter, we have to keep the front unbearably hot in order to circulate enough heat to keep her barely warm enough. We typically have to keep a blanket in the back seat for anyone to use in the winter when temperatures fall into the 30s. Switching to summer, the back seat can stay somewhat cool if the vents are pointed towards the back. Depending on where one sits, the front seats can block some of the airflow and it can be uncomfortably warm at times especially if sitting on the side of the Jeep that the sun is hitting. In the hottest part of the summer, we usually have to run the A/C at 3/4 full blast and on recirculate to keep the back seat comfortable. see full Jeep Wrangler review
2012	2dr SUV 285-horsepower 3.6L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic 4WD, part-time w/low range	Even tho there are rear seats, I would never ride in back, too small back there. see full Jeep Wrangler review
2011	4dr SUV 202-horsepower 3.8L V6 4-speed automatic 4WD, part-time w/low range	It has the ability to go back and forth but not tilt the base seat. Firm but not being able to adjust the angle (like electric 10 way) makes a difference for tall and full frame people. I will be looking to adjust angle asap. see full Jeep Wrangler review
