The Honda Civic versus the Ford Focus

The first thing buyers do when searching for a new vehicle is compare the vehicle they are considering to competitive options. For the Civic, one of the first competitors that shoppers consider is the Ford Focus. When Ford produced the third generation of the Focus, it was still no match to the ever-growing Civic Lineup, which includes the practical yet fun Sedan and the spirited Coupe, but also added favorites such as the Hatchback, Si, and Type R.

The Civic, now in its 10th generation, has proven the test of time amongst drivers for always improving and offering a better and safer drive for everyone. Sleeker and sportier than ever, the Civic gives drivers fun-to-drive performance, exceptional versatility, advanced connectivity, and excellent fuel efficiency – all in a highly affordable package. Can you really beat that?
