Prepare yourself, friends. An all-new Focus will be arriving in 2019, alongside new performance variants and an EV. That means that the next model year will be the last to enjoy the stellar current-gen model. For those hankering for the impressive 2018 Ford Focus RS, you’ll get some pretty special gear alongside the pride of driving one of the world’s most potent hot hatches.
Beware, though. Only 1,000 models will be coming stateside for 2018, so time is of the essence. This go-around, Ford is making the RS2 package standard, while adding Nitrous Blue and Race Red to the available paint colors. While the power numbers won’t change, the front wheels will get a limited-slip differential (LSD). Working with the standard dynamic torque vectoring and brake vectoring controls rearward, the LSD will keep all 350 ponies in play while mitigating wheel slip. The results will be improved cornering and acceleration, and better lap times than ever!
Given the limited production run, there’s no better time than now to explore the availability of the upcoming 2018 Focus RS. Contact our Ford dealership in Meridian, MS to get the ball rolling.
