The new Ford Focus RS will come with a power output of 345bhp, Ford has confirmed, as well as up to 347lb ft of torque from its 2.3-litre engine.
The new hot hatchback will be driven in public for the first time at the Goodwood Festival of Speed. Its revised power output is significantly more than the 316bhp promised when Ford unveiled the car in Geneva earlier this year.
“We promised enthusiasts a serious driving machine and, with 345bhp under the hood, that is exactly what we will deliver,” said Dave Pericak, global director, Ford Performance.
The new Ford Focus RS has been described as being on "another level" and "a really fun package" by pro racer Ken Block.
