What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2007 Ford Focus

2007 Ford Focus Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2007 4dr Hatch 136-horsepower 2.0L I4
4-speed automatic FWD
It was a pleasant surprise when we discovered how comfortable the front seats were for long road trips. They are contoured enough so I can lay the seat back, with a small pillow and take a nice long nap. This is probably highly subjective, but for us, the car seats have been just what we wanted. see full Ford Focus review

The front seat has more room than one would expect. I have yet to encounter someone who has not fit inside comfortably, despite their size. Being over 6ft tall, I drive daily without feeling cramped or enclosed. see full Ford Focus review
