Say goodbye against your Audi S1!

With the success of the previous generation Focus RS -and with the advent of the new – Ford out with a vision for the sportlabel RS. Ford may not be more in the WRC, but is ready for some hot lead to build. In addition, RS well once a valuable brand. The are collectibles, people have always in the row stood. The first RS models are already a few decades old. Which models exactly will be immersed in the RS bath is not yet known, but we have some suspicion that the Fiesta be a major player. Sneak would a Mondeo RS also very tasty. Or the Kuga?

The new model of the Fiesta is not until 2017 in the planning, so until that time, it is very likely that you will have a strong competitor for the Audi S1 and Polo R, and there are already several spyshots surfaced. In terms of motorization, we can Ford’s 1.6 four-cylinder EcoBoost bomblet expect. Peugeot have with the RCZ, after all, proven that 270 hp from a 1.6 turbo block is no problem. Think of a power between the 230 and 250 hp, which will be spread over all four wheels. Maybe Ken Block just to help with the adjustment? (Via Auto express)
