In spite of the fact that there are still a few months from the market opening of the all-fresh Ford Focus RS that made its world debut last July at the London Motor Show, Ford’s Austrian arm has made available lots of fresh and significant details for the sport hatchback as well as initial pricing and modified performance numbers.



When Ford presented the vehicle in London, the firm claimed that the Focus RS with its 300 hp 2.5-liter turbocharged inline 5-cylinder engine could accelerate from 0 to 100km/h (62 mph) in less than 6 seconds and acquire a maximum speed of 260 km/h (162 mph) or even more. The firm’s most current evaluations say that the Focus RS sprints from standstill to 100 km/h in 5.9 seconds and attains top speed of 263 km/h or 164 mph.

Is this car FWD or AWD? If it's FWD, I can't imagine how useful 300hp would be.

I like the Focus - wish they had this Focus in the US (and not the one we have here...).
