This 2028 Ford Focus RS Hot Hatch Concept Is Spec'd To Hunt Down The GR Corolla Morizo

Ford ended production of the Focus in Germany’s Saarlouis plant on Nov. 14, 2025, closing a 27-year run with 12 million sales. Against that backdrop, the article imagines a 2028 Focus RS concept built to target the Toyota GR Corolla Morizo Edition with a weekend-track, everyday approach. The rendering depicts a two-seat hot hatch using a WRC-derived hybrid system rated at 500 hp, mated to a manual gearbox and mechanical limited-slip differentials at both ends. It would echo the Morizo strategy by deleting rear seats and other rear components, targeting about 3,150 lb curb weight, lower than the 3,292 lb Circuit Edition. Power is sourced from a turbo 1.6-liter EcoBoost with a 100 kW motor and a 3.9 kWh battery.
