That looks like 175 on the speedo, which is fast but doesn't seem as fast as it should be for a lightweight car with a good clean aerodynamic design that has 440 hp on tap. I saw a 2014 370z with an automatic transmission and the speed limiter disabled reach about the same speed on the Autobahn. The Z is pushing 332 hp at the crank and weighs about 3300 lbs. The Z does have a very low Cd, around 0.28, and doesn't have a large frontal area.
Such a shame the engine will probably go BOOM at some point as this model has a big problem with the block getting ruined. Some horror stories out there with this engine. Still a nice motor though, just needs the 5 cylinder swapped into it✌🏻
Good luck if you do not have forged internals. I have 440HP on my RS MK3 and my engine blown (connecting rod went through side of engine block) this Sunday after 23 000km.
Masha Allah TabarakAllah ho lakk. May Allah protect you. Ameen I took a 2016 Hyundai Elantra to 210 kms in KSA. I wonder how it feels to drive at 285 kms? One day ❤❤❤😂😂
If that's a 2.3 liter engine and it's boosted high enough to generate 440 hp then I would estimate that the boost is at least 1 atm or 15 psi. I hope that eco-boost engine doesn't turn into an eco-bomb at some point.
Even for manual its slow.. the Ford 2.3l ecoboost engine is garbage. Its almost like diesel in its nature.. very short power band and has very weak top end power. A VW EA888 2.0 Tsi is much faster than Fords ecoshit
Imagine comparing a suv against a hot hatch. Yeah the focus is slow af for his claimed power, but definelty a driving machine creating Ton of fun. You dont have to be the quickest to have the most fun
@@batman291 yes but i had almost same kind of car and it had 280 hp and it looks like it was faster than this in video. but i dont know.. maybe it just looks like it slow on video
I have owned one since new and modified it. I love the car, but these numbers are off - Full bolt-on, on 94 US Octane (98 Euro/RON) gets you 400-410 bhp on a custom tune. Unless they are on some race fuel, E85 or water methanol, you aren't going to be past that.
Just need 10 clear miles of flat motorway they don't feel great beyond 155. Not built for flat out speed the more expensive German cars feel so much more planted.
4.7 s for 0 to 100 km/h with 440 HP and AWD? I can do 4.5s with my 450 HP, RWD and much heavier Mustang GT 🤔 I would have expected a low 4 sec for a such ligther car and AWD.
I would love to see a ford gt, either old or new. would be an absolute blast.
old sounds way better
@@jameslifts2196 hahaj
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Definitely bro🔥Bring on the Legend Max
@@jameslifts2196 yeah, new one even faster though.
Lovely turbo sounds, damn fast too!
Best looking focus imo
I saw one of these with a "Save the manuals" sticker in the back 😂
oh yeah im getting that sticker for my first car now
And why is it funny?
I got an ST with a "Save the Manuals" license plate cover
It feels pretty tame for being 440hp aint it? I love the RS and is probebly the only Ford i would like to own haha :)
Lame? I dont think so :D
@@ForeverOFC1901 He said tame, not lame bro. As in it doesnt really feel that wild for 440 hp.
@@ForeverOFC1901 tame*

Thank you for your hard work Ford is Love FOCUS LOVE ❤
Wow, probably unpopular opinion, but i love the interior.
I love it too. Especially the gummy aspect
Same here man I totally love it

Love these engine and turbo sounds 😍

everybody s gangsta until a ford focus rs comes in!!! awesome car!
Not the most fast for 440ps but practical and fun to drive 👍
Watching this, i think they improved a lot this engine/transsmision in the new ST.....
now an interior that isn't 2005 economy class
@@The_Noticer. i dont buy a sporty car for the interior..
You can’t beat a manual. All these these new generations wouldn’t know what to do with it.
@RS3 Stage 3 but what is more fun to drive?
Reminds me of when I lived in Florida..

Yep, open deck aluminum block is weak point of that high boosted engine. Old 5 cyl Volvo based engine is so great compared to that eco beast shit.
MK3 ST block is stronger, MK3 RS guys chasing big power stroke the ST block to 2.3
Aww 1.0 ecoboost 😍
The best Hot Hatch out there🔥🚀

Mine after mod has 320 WHP AWD mode and 370 WHP FWD mode, been solid. Loving it. I go tracking it a lot. Hopefully it stays intact and strong.
Really nice 👍

Uff thats a long time up to 200

I would like to see this compete with a Golf GTI sport
omg😱 super fast ford focus rs 😱
How many engine rebuilds so far? :D
No headgaskets were harmed while filming this video.
Can you do another video on a MK2 Focus RS 😍😁
No bad.
All these people saying 175mph isn’t fast for a $40k hatchback lol

Much higher boost than that. My Stage 1 Focus ST pulls 25psi all the time.

Hmm, it's as fast as a 320 HP Mk8 Golf R...
Abot same as stock mk8 r.
Understeering is boring as fuck 🤷🏼♂️
@@fedjadrndarski5606 you said it, MK8. This Focus is a generation behind.
VW also had the last few years to develop the new gen Golf lmaooooo they stopped making the RS in 2018 so for almost 6 years behind its still gangsta
Think it needs more gopro's in there.

Stock turbo? Or swaped?

Halo semua saya dari indonesia sudah lama berlangganan di channel ini
Would like to see the list of mods that backs up the claim of 440HP. Is that at the wheels or at the crank?
for sure its crank
@@mariuszmaxankazuya3170 Agreed.. I was being a bit facetious on purpose :)
Still pretty fast car...180mph is no joke
My dream car.. God pls
Que modificciones tiene?

How accurate was the speedo vs the gps? @AutotopNL
speedo is gps +3 to 4 kph usually
台灣同樣兩線道的高速公路5號限速80km

Uff, AWD on board :)
autobahn test civic Typer upg. +-400hp ? ;)
For run more ,this necessário 7gear
I thought 440 hp is way quicker ? How much weight this thing? Greetings
Stock its about 1600kg, i also got a stock one with 350hp, its not the quieckest in his group it hot hatches, but definetly the most fun
Я пасрал
reupload video ?
MB❤️🔥
What is the Time from 100 to 200 Km/h?
284 km/h for this type of car is insane 😳 🤌🏻👏🏻
Manual ?
This is a proper drivers car, much better than the boring slow 306bhp electric cars. lol
Stage?
❤
So how many mph was that? 150?
100-200 time?

10.76s is pretty slow for 440PS.
Manual gearbox is the reason. It would be well under 10 seconds if it had a dual clutch.
Even for manual its slow.. the Ford 2.3l ecoboost engine is garbage. Its almost like diesel in its nature.. very short power band and has very weak top end power.
A VW EA888 2.0 Tsi is much faster than Fords ecoshit

hmm i dont think there is 440hp in that. it seems to slow for that 🤷♂️
A lot of its power its lost through the drivetrain. It probadly will make 440 at the crank, but to the wheels, maybe more like 350-360
