The Ford GT supercar was not only designed to win races, but also designed to serve as a test bed for new technologies for the company's future lineup.
Despite the downsized engine, the new Ford Focus Hatchback 1.0 is surprisingly fun, with its sharp handling and perky EcoBoost engine.
The next generation of the Ford Focus RS will most likely be getting a 2.3-litre Ecoboost engine according to a source from their European performance division.
While there is no affirmative announcement for production, Ford's chief program engineer revealed the next-gen Ford Focus RS will likely get a boost to 330bhp.
Ford will offer a 1.0 litre variant of its EcoBoost petrol engine in the 2012 Focus, featuring unparalleled fuel efficiency and low emissions in its class.
