JACKSON, Mich. –– What was though to be a fast 2016 Ford Focus RS could soon pale in comparison to a faster variant of the 2.3L turbocharged four-cylinder hatchback.
Despite the the 2016 Ford Focus RS not being available for purchase yet at Ford dealer showrooms like our Jackson used car dealer, inside sources have revealed information on a faster Ford Focus RS that could follow the 2016 model.
Currently, the 2016 Focus RS is touted for its explosive speed, accelerating 0–60 in 4.7 seconds with 345 horses. But if the faster variant of the Focus RS manifests––it's still under speculation for lack of Ford confirming its future existence––it's expected to easily pass the 2016 Focus RS and become the fastest-accelerating hatchback in history.
The faster variant could potentially accelerate 0–60 in four seconds, 0.7 seconds less time than the 2016 Focus RS. Autocar insiders also believe the faster Focus RS would beat out others like the Mercedes CLA45 AMG and the Audi RS3.
Whether news of a faster Ford Focus RS that will follow the 2016 model is a wild rumor run amok or something drivers should look forward to is hard to say, considering Ford hasn't yet substantiated any information that has insiders are claiming. Regardless, it's a fun concept to ponder.
Even if a faster Focus RS doesn't come to exist, the 2016 Focus RS has already proven it will be a worthy speed demon for drivers, even if it's 0.7 seconds slower than what could be an imaginary prototype. The 2016 Focus RS will be built on a very light platform that lets the car travel at a faster speed while staying fuel efficient. Carbon fiber will run through the entirety of the hatchback, including its chassis and brakes.
