Focus RS Official Specs

Wow, can't believe they actually stuck AWD on this thing. Seriously BMW, with Ford pumping out the GT350 and now this, the M2 better be something special if you plan on keeping my attention. I'm already considering a deposit on this little rocket.



2.3L Ecoboost 4

"At least" 320hp 320lb/ft

AWD with differential based torque vectoring

proper 6-speed manual

Michelin PSS or factory option Pilot Sport Cup 2

1g lateral road holding

Little info on the AWD system from Autocar Mag:



"The all-wheel drive system is based around twin electronically controlled clutch packs. These are located on each side of the Rear Drive Unit (or RDU, which works like a limited-slip differential).



The RDU uses sensors that monitor conditions 100 times per second to distribute power continuously between the 
front and back wheels and on either side of the rear axle. Up to 100 per cent of the available torque can be sent to either wheel."
