The very first details about the production of new gradation – Focus RS became known. From the posts of the Piston Heads portal, with reference to the leading engineer Lena Urvina, the car will be equipped with a front electronic differential and will be able to develop a capacity of about 350 liters.With.
Of course, most likely, such an innovation will significantly affect the cost of the machine, but there is no exact information about this, and how far the new Focus does not yet know. With all this, the appearance of a model with a drive for all wheels is unlikely – in its all -wheel drive structures, Ford uses Haldex clutch, which is tuned to the front axle. But Urvin said that such a decision leads to insufficient rotation, and therefore for the new generation Focus, it was decided to stop at the active front differential.
As for the power unit, here the most likely option is the Ecoboost engine with a 2.3 l worker in a lot. It should be noted that the company developed this motor for the new generation of Mustang cars. We emphasize that these are only guesses, but it is known for sure that Focus RS will be only in a five -door body design.
