All-Wheel Drive

The brightest minds of the rally world have been involved in the production of this car including Ken Block, and they all insisted that for the first time ever, this sporty hatchback comes equipped with all-wheel drive as a standard feature. Unleash power to all four wheels with the punch of a pedal.

 

RS

RS stands for Rallye Sport, and this particular badge is reserved for performance vehicles that come out of Ford TeamRS European performance car division. You can see the racing heritage and design in the aerodynamics. From the rear spoiler to the front grille and rear diffuser, the RS was made for performance.

 

Performance

Equipped with a best in class 350 horsepower and 350 pound-feet monster, this lightweight hatchback is ready to go. The 2.3-liter EcoBoost engine has been specially designed and specially balanced to provide this hatchback with unprecedented power and performance without sacrificing handling.

2017 Ford Focus RS driving modes

Most of the Ford Focus RS options are not performance oriented. Instead, no matter how you choose to build out your RS, you know you are getting arguably the best performance hatchback ever made. It is worth mentioning that unlike other levels of the Focus lineup, there isn’t a sedan option.

 

One of the most interesting features of the 2017 Ford Focus RS is the selectable driving modes. This way you can drive the Ford Focus RS the way you want to when you want to. The Driving modes are as follows:

  • Normal Mode: This is the mode you want for everyday driving. It adjusts the power distribution and the shift points to provide a driving experience that is still powerful but also extremely drivable.
  • Sport Mode: When you want to kick things up a notch, this driving mode is the one you need. It lets your engine achieve the next level of performance and changes the AWD power distribution for a sportier feel.
  • Track Mode: This is a track only mode, and it kicks everything into high gear. The suspension is stiffer, and the stability control is set to prioritize performance over comfort.
  • Drift Mode: All-wheel drive cars are not known for their drifting ability, but with the track only Drift Mode, more power is shifted to the back wheels making this Focus drift like no other that came before. Use with caution.

If you need a 2017 Ford Focus RS in your life and in your garage, then you need Brandon Ford in Tampa. We have a huge inventory of Ford vehicles, and as Southeast USA’s #1 volume Ford dealer, we have the hard to find Ford Focus RS regularly in stock for you to see and test drive.
