Ford has announced the all-new 2016 GT back in January’s Detroit auto show. The Ford GT supercar is equipped with a 3.5L EcoBoost twin-turbo V6 engine, with output more than 600hp, mated to a 7-speed double-clutch transmission. For more details about this sports car please see our previous article here.

At the exhibition hall of the Geneva auto show yesterday, we met Mr. Dave Pericak, Director of Ford Performance. Mr. Pericak mentioned in the conversation that the Ford GT will be priced similar to the Lamborghini Aventador (which starts at $397,500). So it means we are looking at a MSRP in the ballpark of $400k, for the 2016 Ford GT.

Will you consider a sports car from F...

Two days ago, Ford announced the all-new 2016 Focus RS, which has more than 315hp from the 2.3L turbocharged 4-cylinder engine, mated to an AWD system.

This effectively puts the Focus RS into the competition with other hot hatches in the market, such as the Subaru WRX STI and also the Volkswagen Golf R. The current 2015 WRX STI is in the sedan form, but we can safely bet the hatchback version is coming very soon, therefore we include it into our discussion here.

Generally speaking, Subaru WRX STI is the most hardcore vehicle for rally purpose, while it has lower refinement; the VW Golf R has the best refinement, but its AWD system is the weakest among the three candidate...

2016 Ford Focus RS comes with more than 315hp

We have expected to see the all-new 2016 Ford Focus RS back in last month’s Detroit auto show, unfortunately this did not happen. Ford did bring the Mustang GT350R, the GT and also the new F150 SVT Raptor at that time, but the Focus RS did not show up.

Today Ford finally unveiled the latest hot hatch which will also be sold in the US market: the 2016 Focus RS. Besides the exterior/interior styling tweaks, from the press release there are multiple mechanical changes to this RS version:

Road Race Mustang: Fully Ready For The Track

If you haven’t heard of the Road Race Mustang, you are not alone. In the past two months, the sports car market has been flooded with news related to the high performance version of the Ford Mustang. Specifically speaking, the Mustang GT350 and GT350R.

However, this is not the full story. Yesterday, we found out that Ford Performance quietly put out a new Mustang variant on its catalog website, called the Road Race Mustang.

As described on its webpage, the Road Race Mustang is a factory-build race car based on the Mustang, which is fully ready for track and racing usage...

2017 Ford F150 Raptor 450hp Monster

Two weeks ago, at the 2015 Detroit auto show, Ford revealed its latest 2017 Raptor which is based on the new generation of the F150 truck.

One distinct difference between the new F150 to the old one is its full-aluminum car body (not including the ladder frame). In addition to the aluminum body construction, another major change to the Raptor variant is in the engine: it will abandon the previous Raptor’s 6.2L naturally aspirated V8, and replace it with the firm’s 3.5L twinturbo EcoBoost V6 engine.

But Ford didn’t tell us that at the Detroit debut: what is the output of the EcoBoost V6 in the new Raptor?

In the past week, during a tele...
