New Focus RS is the fastest-ever car by Ford in Europe. It will go on sale in the UK beginning of March with a base price of £24,995 (27,899 euros / 37,800 USD).
Power comes from a turbocharged 2.5-liter five-cylinder Duratec engine that develops 305 hp. Features include unique camshafts and a revised cylinder head and gasket, intake and manifold system.
All these wild horses are sent to front wheels via six-speed transmission. 0-62 mph (0-100 km/h) takes less than 6 seconds and the top speed is over 160 mph (257 km/h).
