Watch the Ford Focus RS Tear Up Mountain Roads
Ford’s hottest hatch is now out in the open and the brand has released a video showing the car ripping up some mountain roads.
More important than seeing the car, the new video allows us to hear the new 2.3-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine really putting in work. Power numbers are unreleased, but Ford says the car will make over 315 hp. An apparent leak from last week puts output at 345 hp.

The new Focus RS packs a sophisticated all-wheel drive setup along with four drive modes: normal, sport, race and track. It gets stiffer spring rates and bushings, larger antiroll bars and two-mode switchable dampers, just to name some of the upgrades.
Check out the video below.
