330 Horsepower Focus RS heading our way soon?

Ford Focus RS

Now that the 2013 Focus ST and it’s turbo-charged 252 horsepower engine have finally hit the streets here in the United States, are we destined to see it’s bigger brother as well? Ford has been producing the Focus RS in Europe for several years now, pushing out over 300 hp in that version of its hot hatch.

Motortrend is reporting that the new version of the Focus RS will go on sale in 2015 in Europe and is expected to bring 330 hp to the table! Ford hasn’t announced any plans to bring it the United States as of yet, but taking into account their global approach it doesn’t seem far-fetched. That much power would put it on par with the bigger and heavier V6 Mustang, think of it as the performance ying to the Mustang’s yang.

What do you guys think? We know we’d love to have several here at Ray Price Stroud Ford and Ray Price Ford in the Poconos! We already offer high performance Ford models like the Mustang, Focus St, and the Shelby GT 500!

They plan to realign their business operations to focus on the continued sale of motorcycles, ATVs, and the marine vehicles.

Suzuki citing several factors when filing including low sales volumes, a limited number of models in its lineup, unfavorable foreign exchange rates, the high costs associated with growing and maintaining an automotive distribution system in the continental US, and the disproportionally high and increasing costs associated with stringent state and federal regulatory requirements unique to the US market.
