What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2008 Ford Focus

2008 Ford Focus Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2009	2dr Coupe 143-horsepower 2.0L I4 5-speed manual FWD	2 door is easy to get in and out of. The leather seating option makes for a comfortable ride especially for such a small car. see full Ford Focus review
2007	4dr Wagon 136-horsepower 2.0L I4 5-speed manual FWD	The first-generation Focus has great seats -- cushy, well-bolstered, and high off the floor. see full Ford Focus review
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
2007	2dr Hatch 136-horsepower 2.0L I4 5-speed manual FWD	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
2007	4dr Sedan 136-horsepower 2.0L I4 5-speed manual FWD	Ample room. see full Ford Focus review

2008 Ford Focus Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2009	2dr Coupe 143-horsepower 2.0L I4 5-speed manual FWD	Limited space for larger passengers. see full Ford Focus review
2009	4dr Sedan 140-horsepower 2.0L I4 5-speed manual FWD	Due to the lack of rear seat room, you must slide the front seats forward to prevent a child from kicking their feet on the back of the seats. Only a booster seat with the front seats forward will minimize this problem. see full Ford Focus review
2009	4dr Sedan 140-horsepower 2.0L I4 5-speed manual FWD	No rear armrest. Only one cupholder. see full Ford Focus review
2007	2dr Hatch 136-horsepower 2.0L I4 5-speed manual FWD	Not the best, but ok for a 2 door hatch. see full Ford Focus review
2007	4dr Sedan 151-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed manual FWD	Another two inches of legroom sure would be nice. see full Ford Focus review
2007	4dr Sedan 151-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed manual FWD	Very average for its class. Not a place for grownups for long. see full Ford Focus review
