Hi Tom,

It's a much smaller car, the Rio. The Focus would be significantly larger and more spacious in the cabin and boot. There is a roughly €6,000 difference between the new prices of both, which should give you an idea of the gap between them. That said, if you don't need the cabin and boot space, the Rio is a cracking little car. Good to drive, good to look at and with that famous seven-year warranty.
