What is there not to like about the all-new Ford Focus RS? The sports hatch is fast, powerful and is really affordable too. For under $40,000, you can enjoy a highly advanced sports car that runs on the Mustang-sourced 2.3L 4-cylinder EcoBoost engine with 350hp and 350ft-lbs of torque to offer.
The Focus RS is expected to dominate the sports hatch market both on the road and on the track. However, how will the car perform if it gets hunted by the all-new BMW M2? The latter has got more power to offer as it relies on a 3L turbo straight-6 engine that sends 365hp to the rear axle.
Thankfully, the lads from Auto Express has clocked and compared both the track timings of the Focus S and the M2. The result can be seen in the video below and we can tell you that you are in for a surprise.
