We’re very exciting for the upcoming Ford Focus RS release, which if you haven’t heard will be a pretty big deal since it was previously only available overseas. However, we’re also looking forward to the future and wondering what other goodies Ford will be releasing — since they’ve said that performance vehicles will be a focus over the next several years. We often wonder will there be a Ford Fiesta RS Trim? Certain rumors point to yes!

What to expect from a Ford Fiesta RS Trim level
It only makes sense to offer both the Ford Fiesta and Focus as an RS trim, since they’re currently available under the ST trim umbrella. Plus, we’ve heard nothing but great things about the 2016 Focus RS, and can only imagine what a Fiesta RS would be look — but hopefully for not too much longer!
Next year will be the 40th anniversary of the Fiesta, and what better way to celebrate than by releasing a Fiesta RS trim? It has already been rumored, and spy photos show a bit of what is going on with it. So what exactly should one expect from a Fiesta RS? Well, It is rumored to be running with about 250 horsepower from a 1.6L turbocharged four-cylinder engine. But will it have AWD like the Focus RS? Unfortunately, this point is a bit less likely, but we’re sure the Fiesta RS would still make for a very thrilling and engaging ride.

When will a Ford Fiesta RS come out?
If the Fiesta RS goes into production, the mostly likely time frame for a release would be in 2017 — hopefully early into the year! We’ll likely know more beforehand, probably around mid-2016 or so, about the possible 2017 Ford Fiesta RS and what it will all be packing.
