While on the 'Stang the unit churns out 305 hp, its output will be boosted to 330 horses for the hot hatch. The third-generation Focus RS will borrow the Mustang's 2.3-liter Ecoboost four-cylinder engine. Back then, Ford explained it could gift the Focus RS with all-wheel drive, but this wouldn't make financial sense.Įven though we were referring to the upcoming Shelby Mustang GT350, we didn't mention the pony car by accident. Most hot hatches with over 300 hp use all-wheel drive, but it appears the Blue Oval has stuck to a statement made a few years ago. The front-wheel drive will throw the Focus RS right in the middle of the Nurburgring FWD record battle between the Seat Leon Cupra and the Renault Megane RS - the Ford has plenty of chances to take the cake.

Is the 2015 Ford Focus RS will be the biggest bestseller in Europe? Of course we can expect in the Ford’s the latest solutions. Certainly, the new Ford Focus RS will have a stiffer suspension, limited-slip differential (LSD, probably electronic), larger and more efficient brakes, 19-inch alloy wheels and bucket seats. Rumors say that the new Ford Focus RS will have a engine straight from European Mustang – 2.3 Liter turbocharged (EcoBoost) with a capacity of about 330-350 PS, which is transferred to the road four-wheel drive (AWD).
