Focus or Auris for a family?

Trying to decide between a Ford Focus or Toyota Auris. We have 2 children so boot space would be very important for buggies etc. Thanks.

Hi Sinead,

It depends on which year you’re looking at. If you mean the MkII Focus (2004 to 2010) then that’s the one to go for – it’s one of the most spacious family hatchbacks of the time, with lots of space in the back seats and a massive boot. If you mean the current models, then I’d go for the Auris. The current Focus is just too small inside for a growing family.
