Fox RS is the performance version of fox. It is a small steel gun with great driving fun. Recently, Netcom learned from overseas media that the new generation of fox RS will not be able to meet you until 2022 or 2023 due to emission standards. (the pictures in the article are all current fox RS) it is reported that Ford originally planned to use the light hybrid system with 2.3t turbo driven front wheel and motor driven rear wheel on the new generation fox RS, but the plan was stranded because it could not meet the latest European carbon dioxide emission regulations. "We're waiting for the engineering team to come up with a new powertrain solution to meet the latest CO2 policy, but it's not easy," said a Ford executive It is reported that Ford is currently seeking to develop a version of fox RS, that is, the 2.5L Atkinson cycle engine equipped with motor system on the new escape / Kuga. After adjustment, its maximum power can be increased to 405 HP, even in the face of competitors such as RS 3 and a 45. However, the biggest challenge facing the new generation of fox RS is to keep the development cost at a reasonable level while developing high-performance hybrid powertrain. In addition, in view of the gradual promotion of Ford's electrification strategy, it is still unknown whether the new generation of fox RS will be listed in the United States, even if it can be launched within two to three years.
