Ford Focus RS: 300 bhp Focus RS spotted

Focus RS set to be fastest Ford hatch ever with over 300 bhp

The sound of the 300-bhp engine was unmistakable, just like the car’s fast acceleration with four-wheel-drive and the rally-like sound of that dump valve while shifting gears. Add some wide fenders, a more aggressive front end styling and you have the Focus RS, a true competitor to the upcoming EVO X.
