How long is a Ford Focus in feet?

The Ford Focus is typically about 14.5 to 15 feet long, depending on generation and body style.


The focus length varies by market, year, and body configuration (hatchback, sedan, or wagon). In the United States, for example, Ford stopped selling new Focus cars after the 2018 model year, while the model remains active in many other regions. This means exact measurements can differ across generations and regional versions.


What determines a Ford Focus's length


Length is primarily set by the design of each generation and the chosen body style. Hatchbacks tend to be shorter than sedans because of the trunk configuration, and wagon variants, when available, can alter overall length slightly depending on styling and wheelbase choices.


Body style and generation


Across generations, the Focus has appeared as hatchbacks (3- and 5-door), sedans, and wagons in various markets. Each version has its own fixed length, so two Focuses from different years or regions may measure a few inches apart.


Approximate lengths by body style


Below are general ranges you can expect for common Ford Focus configurations. Use them as a quick reference rather than as a substitute for the exact spec sheet.



  • Focus hatchback (most common configuration): approximately 169–173 inches long (14.1–14.4 feet).

  • Focus sedan (where offered): approximately 179–180 inches long (14.9–15.0 feet).

  • Focus wagon (in markets where offered): typically around 172–174 inches long (14.3–14.5 feet).


These ranges cover typical generations from the late 1990s through the mid-2010s; newer or region-specific variants may vary slightly. For precise figures, check the official specification for your exact year and body style.


Getting an exact measurement for your model


To confirm the exact length of a particular Ford Focus you own or are considering, refer to the vehicle’s official spec sheet from Ford or the dealership, or measure from bumper to bumper with the car on a flat surface.


Practical takeaway


In practical terms, plan for about 14.5 to 15 feet of overall length when estimating parking, garage space, or lane width for a Ford Focus, while remembering that exact figures depend on year, market, and body configuration.


Summary: The Ford Focus generally spans roughly 14.5 to 15 feet in length, with hatchbacks usually on the shorter end and sedans on the longer end. Always check the specific year and body style to confirm exact measurements.
