Production 2009 Ford Focus RS revealed

The highly anticipated Ford Focus RS super hatch has made its
production model debut with a series of new official images and details.


First showcased in concept form
at the British Motor Show earlier this year, overwhelming positive
public response has meant the showroom-bound version is true to form.
Finished in Performance Blue as a tribute to the original Escort RS
Cosworth and original Focus RS Mk1, the mechanicals also remain
identical to earlier reports.


The 2.5-litre turbocharged five-cylinder engine churns out more than
220kW, which is transferred to the asphalt via a unique Automatic
Torque Biasing limited-slip differential developed by British
engineering specialist Quaife.


This system works in conjunction with Ford’s new RevoKnuckle
suspension setup to dull the side effects of such a high-powered
front-wheel drive sports car.


Performance from zero to 100km/h is anticipated to be below 6
seconds with a theoretical top speed of more than 257km/h - simply
astounding for a front-wheel drive hacth.
Its aesthetics are simply awe-inspiring, its rally-inspired front
and rear diffusers plus oversized rear wing blend seamlessly with
original RS trademarks to create a menacing appearance for the pinnacle
of hot hatches.


Completing the look are 19-inch multispoke wheels which draw their
influence from rally, of course, shod in low-profile performance rubber
while the interior boasts Recaro bucket seats with body-coloured
accents, carbon fibre trim and aluminium highlights.


The new Ford Focus RS is expected to cost less than AUD$56,000 in
the UK, keeping it roughly on par with the WRX STi and Mitsubishi
Lancer Evolution X.

This is it in concept form.

The world’s most anticipated hot-hatch of the year has finally made
its official debut, with Ford today releasing the official details of
its new Focus RS.


The all-important performance figures stand at 220kW - compared to 166kW for the XR5 - and peak torque of 410Nm from its 5-cylinder turbocharged engine.
Early performance testing conducted by Ford place the acceleration to 100km/h at less than 6.0 seconds.


Unfortunately, previous reports were accurate with the RS model
featuring front-wheel drive rather than the popularly speculated
all-paw configuration - albeit with the addition of a Quaife Automatic
Torque Biasing limited-slip differential.
In addition to this, Ford has also developed a unique front
suspension setup, an innovative ‘RevoKnuckle’ system is designed to
reduce unwanted steering disturbance and torque steer - apparently
eliminating the need for AWD according to Jost Capito, Ford Europe’s
Director for Performance Vehicles.
