It’s one of 12 new performance vehicles Ford will introduce globally by the end of the decade, with the Ford GT and Mustang Shelby GT350 also on that list. The Focus RS comes powered by a 2.3-litre four-cylinder Ecoboost turbo engine with Ford hinting at upwards of 316bhp. Four-wheel drive will be employed for the first time, with a Drift Mode also being fitted.
