Last month the Ford Focus RS was introduced. The car, which was developed in cooperation with Ken Block, got a lot of positive response while Ford didn't really unveil much more than the impressive exterior of the car. Of course we know all know that the car has four-wheel drive where you can transfer a maximum of 70 percent to the rear wheels which results in a Ford Focus that should be able to drift.
But how much is 70 percent of the power? Ford didn't answer this question but meanwhile we know the answer thanks to a leak on the Spanish and Irish Ford website. The Ford Focus RS will produce 345 hp! That's great and this means that the RS will be a direct competitor of the A 45 AMG. Ford was aiming for at least 315 hp and probably wanted to keep the exact amount of power a secret until the real market introduction of the RS. The amount of torque is still a secret but we know that this is a turbo engine so we won't need to worry about this!
