Ford introduces a Focus RS Option Pack

With the recent launch of Honda's latest Civic Type R and the imminent arrival of a new Mégane Renaultsport, the Focus RS is facing some serious competition.

Perhaps in response to those rivals, Ford Performance has created an Option Pack that adds a Quaife mechanical limited-slip differential to the front axle for improved traction.

There are some cosmetic upgrades, too. These include a matte black finish for the roof panel and door mirror caps, plus the interior gains Nitrous Blue leather highlights.

The 2.3 litre four-cylinder EcoBoost engine is unaltered, so it still delivers 345 bhp (257 kW / 350 PS) via an all-wheel drive system. Dynamic Torque Vectoring (on the rear axle) and Torque Vectoring Control (on the front axle) also remain key elements of the specification.
