Other Choices:

To put it bluntly, the 2010 Ford Focus is an aging design, up against some very tough, well-updated competition. TheCarConnection.com recently pitted South Korea's Kia Forte against the 2010 Ford Focus and the 2010 Honda Civic, and while it was a close competition, they outperformed the Ford in certain aspects. The Civic also offers more variety than the Focus, with multiple powertrains, including hybrid and natural gas. The 2010 Focus also has to compete against the Mazda3, a perennial enthusiast favorite for its handling and build quality. Comparatively, the Hyundai Elantra and Dodge Caliber aren't quite up to par compared to the other members in this pack in overall refinement and style. However, since there is no hatchback or wagon model for the Focus, the impressive Mazda3, the Toyota Matrix (which is based on the Corolla), and the Honda Fit could all present viable alternatives to the Focus.
