The article is reporting on the NEXT GENERATION FOCUS which is yet to be released here, I have said this in my first response to your post. It is known as Focus 3, again not yet available for sale, but they have put a picture of the Focus 2 RS, not relevant. The Focus 3 they are referring to in the article will not have the currently available Volvo I5 due to the sale of Volvo. They will utilise a range of EcoBoost engines. So it is not possible for them to just put the current RS engine into a XR(?). The CURRENT Focus 2 ST and RS models use the Volvo engines. The current ST can have the RS engine but as I said it will need major chassis tuning to handle all the power, in the end it would be easier and probably cheaper to just have a RS. You're giving me a headache, go and research Focus 2 ST and RS and see the mechnical differences. Then go and look up Focus 3.
