The Ford Focus remains unchanged for 2010, offering its drivers a 2.0L inline 4 cylinder Duratec Engine in both its sedan and coupe versions. The term "Duratec" describes Ford's DOHC (dual overhead cam) engine. Base models include a 5 speed manual transmission on all versions of the Focus, while a 4 speed automatic is available as an option.

The standard 5 speed manual transmission gets slightly better gas mileage than its automatic version. Gas mileage is rated at 24 MPG city and 35 MPG highway. Several states offer a slightly greener version of this engine, with cleaner emissions and very little change to horsepower; 136 at 6,000 RPMs, and torque; 133 at 4250 RPMs. Several of Ford Focus's competitors no longer offer a manual transmission.

Virtually every trim package has been revised for the 2010 Ford Focus. Trim packages available include the S, SE, SEL, and SES. Coupes and sedan body styles are both offered, with only sedans coming in all four trim packages. For a mid-level trim package, the SE models come with relatively limited options being offered. SEL models come with chrome exterior highlights, complete leather seating, heated mirrors, enhanced suspensions, and optional heated front seats. SES trim packages are offered with 17 inch allow wheels, more enhanced body styling, highway tuned suspension. The only engine offered for the 2010 Ford Focus is the 2.0 liter inline four cylinder that can give 140 horsepower. The standard transmission for these engines is a 5 speed manual, while there is a four speed automatic offered as optional equipment. Most models will receive between 24 mpg city and 35 mpg highway for manual transmission equipped vehicles. Models that have the automatic transmission lose approximate 2 mpg in both city and highway driving.
