@Peoples Ford Can you say that the suspension of the Active version is softer than the suspension on the normal versions? I know that the ST line has a firmer suspension, and because in my country the roads are terrible I am thinking of getting the Active version, but I wonder if the ride will be the same as on a Titanium version or it will be even softer.
im looking at these now and cant decide as i had a cx3 and it was fantastic just silent but had a dpf fault so it went back, not sure if i should get ecosport, Captur or a focus. I would get a cx3 2.0L but i assume being a 2.0L it will drink petrol and cost more to insure ?? too much choice on the market, focus is 1.0L so less power but more economical
Hi Alan, thanks for your comment. It's a combination of the raised suspension and larger tyres. It also comes with the roof rails which increases the total height. Hope that helps, Jen
why would you need 17 different wires to charge your phone ? just have 1 short one kept in the car, also more reliable than wireless, that can drop out
This is so weird looking at driving on the wrong side of the road and the steering wheel is on the right side 🤣 The uk is the only country in Europe who still drives on the left side of the road
my dad bought this last year its an amazing car
That's great to hear. We hope you liked our review! Jen

The active has a softer suspension the ST line. The Active has a softer and more forgiving suspension set up.
Ive never seen someone talk about a car before with no idea about cars very impressive

Is it just the hightened suspension that raises the height or is the body different from the standard focus too? Cheers

It's very nice and you can fit a rucksack in the boot!👍
It's a great car Sean, you can fit a rucksack and much more in the boot! Jen
Quick question: does this hatchback version of the Ford Focus Active have independent rear suspension?
Hi Michael, all models in our Fiesta range come with independent suspension, front and rear. Thanks, Craig.
@@PeoplesAutomotiveGroup Fiesta? I was interested in the Focus model?…
@@MichaelBrown-pw7pp The Focus range also comes with independent suspensions, sorry for the confusion.
Is this car ok for a family of 5?
Has it got a motor??
Yes, there is petrol, diesel and mild hybrid options
We were supposed to get the Focus Active in the US, I wonder what happened? Shame on Ford for giving up on cars for the American market.
Oh no, another british car review using the word hood, at least he said estate not station wagon, good review though!
Glad you liked the review, we hope you found it informative! Jen

Wireless charging is there, but the car has usb points too if you prefer using your wire! :) Jen
Do you have to get the Active X model for wireless charging or do all Active models have it?
Noice

Glad it has amused you, we hope you liked the car too! There are a few other countries in Europe which drive on the right side :) Jen
