Another impressive powertrain feature is the Quaife limited-slip differential, which optimizes your new 2018 Limited Edition Focus RS\u2019s acceleration and stability by limiting the engine torque to the front wheel with reduced traction and sending that torque to the wheel with more traction to reduce differences in wheel spin. Additional powertrain features include Ford Performance All-Wheel Drive, Dynamic Torque Vectoring, Torque Vectoring Control and the standard Ford Focus RS driving modes.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-19512\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn-ds.com\/blogs-media\/sites\/678\/2017\/11\/09130746\/2018-Ford-Focus-Blue-parked-in-front-of-a-building_B1_o.jpg\" alt=\"2018 Ford Focus Blue parked in front of a building\" width=\"768\" height=\"500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn-ds.com\/blogs-media\/sites\/678\/2017\/11\/09130746\/2018-Ford-Focus-Blue-parked-in-front-of-a-building_B1_o.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn-ds.com\/blogs-media\/sites\/678\/2017\/11\/09130746\/2018-Ford-Focus-Blue-parked-in-front-of-a-building_B1_o-300x195.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cOur new limited edition Focus RS represents accessible performance at its finest.
