Does a 2008 Ford Focus have Bluetooth?

I’m shopping for a used car and an older Focus is looking like my best bet. I’m just worried that it won't have any of the tech I’m used to. Did the 2008 Ford Focus come with Bluetooth?

A 2008
Ford Focus
is definitely a little old to feature all of the accessories we’re used to on newer cars, but you’re in luck! This was the first model year that Ford introduced SYNC infotainment technology to the Focus. A 2008 Ford Focus will have Bluetooth if it has SYNC technology.
SYNC was only standard on the top-tier
Focus SES
trim from the 2008 model year. If you’re looking at a Focus S or
Focus SE
, you’ll need to make sure that the original owner chose to add SYNC at the time of purchase.
SYNC from the early model years featured Bluetooth hands-free calling and audio playback with easy-to-use controls located on the steering wheel. This makes it very easy to use these features without taking your eyes off the road much at all. Not only will this cut down
distracted driving
, but it can also help you save on your
car insurance
by keeping you out of rate-raising violations and earning you a discount if your provider offers one!
