The Ford Focus RS WRC was a World Rally Car built for the Ford World Rally Team by Ford Europe and M-Sport and based on the Ford Focus production hatchback. RS stands for Rally Sport and WRC for World Rally Car, the FIA specification. It competed from 1999 to 2010, appearing in 173 World Rally Championship events, winning 44 of them and taking two manufacturers' world titles, in 2006 and 2007. The car is heavily modified from the road version, sharing only the basic shape and some bodyshell parts, and adds permanent four-wheel drive and a turbocharged 2.0 litre Duratec engine, since rally rules did not permit the 2.5 litre engine of the road car. Annual redesigns ran from the 1999 original through the 2003, 2006, 2007, 2008 and 2009 versions, and the Ford Fiesta RS WRC replaced it.
