2018 Ford Focus RS consumer reviews

The RS is amazing! I got it new and now have 20k on it. It runs like the day I got it. I swap winters/tires/rims every winter and it's my daily driver in New Hampshire. The 18 has refined suspension compared to prior years. I absolutely love this car! The bang for the buck is truly great! That said, I waited until the mark-ups were taken down! I love the design and including the interior. Only complaint with interior is the front seats are a little too high and the words for the dash controls (heat, defogger, etc) are super small/hard to read. I still get looks and random thumbs up, which is a gas. So far, it's been completely reliable. I test drove it to the Golf R and Subaru STi and the RS won! I could not turn off the control traction on the Golf R and dummed down things, which I did not like and the STi just didn't put a smile on my face like the RS and the interior felt drab/ordinary. So far, 3 years into this RS, I still love it!

I was looking for a fun daily driver that has great performance I can use in all seasons. With the winter tires and wheels this was a snowmobile in the winter, and a blast in the summer.

Great gas mileage, exceptional power, and excellent control, make this a perfect daily driver. The adaptive all wheel drive makes even a novice driver feel in control.

Very fun car with great power and style. Interior styling is very basically though. Recaro seats are awesome and very supportive. So far I haven't had any issues with it.

I thought it was a great success. I really like the car. I would come back again. I a Really excited
