Is it better to use synthetic or conventional oil for a Ford Focus?

I just bought a 2020 Ford Focus and I'm wondering which type of oil is best to use for this car. I've heard conflicting opinions about using synthetic or conventional oil. What are the pros and cons of each and which would you recommend for a Ford Focus?

Both synthetic and conventional oils have their benefits and it ultimately depends on your personal preference and driving habits. Synthetic oil offers better protection and longer intervals between oil changes, but it can be more expensive. Conventional oil is more affordable, but may need to be changed more frequently.

For a Ford Focus, I would recommend sticking with the manufacturer's recommended oil type. This is usually synthetic, but you can check your owner's manual or ask a certified mechanic for confirmation.

I've been using synthetic oil in my 2019 Ford Focus and I've noticed better performance and longer intervals between oil changes. I highly recommend it for this car.
