The Ford Focus, Gen2 is about the essentials: a no -frills grocery getter with added bonuses. 2010 Ford Focus Pros and Cons nasowas The SE has a rather soft suspension, just what I am looking for. If you like it sporty check the SES trim. |

2015 Volkwagen GTI Review plus TDI Preview Official TrueDelta review by Michael Karesh Though not entirely free of jiggle and jostle, the GTI rides more smoothly than the more tightly suspended Focus ST. I personally find the Ford's ride livable, so I'd have no qualms at all with the GTI as a daily driver. Both cars are fairly quiet inside when cruising, but... Comparison vehicle: 2014 Ford Focus |
2014 Mazda3 s Grand Touring Review Official TrueDelta review by Michael Karesh I've read good things about the ride quality of the Mazda3 i. The Mazda3 s, though, rides with a little too much jiggle and jostle for mainstream tastes. Credit/blame a firmer suspension and lower profile tires (215/45WR18s on the s vs. 205/60HR16s on the i). A Ford Focus feels more... Comparison vehicle: 2014 Ford Focus |

2013 Dodge Dart GT Review Official TrueDelta review by Michael Karesh The GT suspension tweaks don't only benefit the Dart's handling. The GT also rides better, quickly and firmly--but not harshly--dispatching bumps and divots with little impact on the car's composure. The suspension still crashes over some of these, but less often and less severely than the Limited. The Ford... Comparison vehicle: 2014 Ford Focus |

Overall We're Happy with the ZX5 2007 Ford Focus Pros and Cons A member in Michigan, United States The ride is relatively hard and stiff, compared to most American cars we've been in. Some may not like this, but we do. Tires have alot to do with this too, of course. |

2007 Ford Focus ZX4 SES--My Experience 2007 Ford Focus Pros and Cons Member5749 Not smooth at all! Even with brand new tires and shocks, you are going to feel every bump, pothole and ripple in the road. |

2013 Dodge Dart Limited 2.0 Review Official TrueDelta review by Michael Karesh The Dodge rides more smoothly over the small stuff than the more tightly damped Ford Focus. But larger bumps and potholes can register with such a loud, jarring crash that I half-expected a shock tower to punch through the hood. It's as if the ride quality engineers, when testing various...

2012 Ford Focus SE Sport Review Official TrueDelta review by Michael Karesh My overall impression of the 2012 Focus is very positive. But what, exactly, is so impressive about this car? It's not easy to say. This is one of those cars where the whole is greater than the sum of the parts. But if I have to pick something, it's ride... Comparison vehicle: 2012 Mazda Mazda3 |

2005 Ford Focus Pros and Cons A member in Michigan, United States Kind of harsh. You give up some smoothness with the handling. |

2009 Ford Focus Pros and Cons Member2143 The ride becomes very jumpy with just one person in the car over bumpy pavement. There are times the right rear will jump to the side slightly when the pavement becomes too unsettled. |

2007 Ford Focus Pros and Cons Member2379 Suspensions can sometimes feel a little "clunky". |
|
2005 Ford Focus Pros and Cons Member146 This "fault" is compared to larger cars, not cars in the class. For a small car, the Focus is well-composed and absorbs bumps without getting off-line. It features fully independent suspension in a class where most have a solid twist beam rear axle. |

2006 Ford Focus Pros and Cons Member62 The Focus can feel choppy on highway joints and the rear suspension crashes over pot holes. |
