Ford Focus RS to get 280hp tuned up inline-5

Posted in Cars, Ford, Spyshots / By /

Focus RS

More details of the upcoming Ford Focus RS available on the net now – the latest scoop is a 280 horsepower upgraded version of the 2.5 litre inline-5 engine in the Focus ST, which makes its additional power via upgraded pistons, cams, valve springs, a bigger turbo, a larger intercooler, and a tuned up ECU.

The car may or may not get the new Ford/Volvo 6-speed PowerShift, and despite being aimed at the all-wheel drive Volkswagen Golf R32, it will be a front wheel drive car.

As previously mentioned, the Focus RS will be revealed at the London Motor Show in July this year, so stay tuned.

    If ford Malaysia brings focus rs to us, Japanese sports cars (rx8 and the bunch) would have a fair competition. This new focus rs looks like mondeo.

    Ford Singapore has this version. Orange color. 18″ rim. Black leather interior. Speedo marked until 300km/h. Very aggressive looks :)

    many Malaysians don’t appreciate the true value of Ford, that’s why the sales of Focus here is extremely bad……
