Novo comercial do Ford Focus ST, continua sem fazer drifts

[Ramiel]

Tão falando que o novo RS pode até ser um Fiesta, já q ele tá sendo usado no WRC e tem uma carroceria 3 portas, ao contrário do Focus. Só q o Focus teria uma margem de lucro maior e seria mais fácil de vender nos EUA.

Could Ford's Fiesta RS outmuscle Focus RS production hopes?

While we wait patiently for the fall launch of the 2013 Ford Focus ST – and for Ford to decide whether the U.S. market is worthy of the three-door Fiesta ST – our English-speaking friends overseas are consumed with other worries. Like whether the next Focus RS will, in fact, be a Fiesta.

Autocar says Ford still hasn't decided what form the next generation of its ultrahatch will take, and that it is weighing the pros and cons of using both models for the next RS. On the one hand, the Fiesta is already being campaigned in the World Rally Championship with RS badging. The pint-sized hatchback is also available as a three-door (although not in the U.S.), a bodystyle that is reportedly viewed as more befitting an RS model. But the larger Focus will likely fetch larger profits, not to mention being more suitable for sale in the States, Autocar guesstimates.
