As an aside, wasn't it the argument that there couldn't be a Fiesta RS because it'd too heavily eat into the sales of the Focus RS? Well now there's no Focus RS coming...

My source is Autocar, yours is drivetribe.
We will see, your source is talking about 2021 model, I´m saying 2022...
They are both talking about the Mk4 RS.

'Although Jim Farley Chief Operating Officer of Ford, has removed administrative barriers to projects like RS, there is still the challenge of finding the resources needed to develop Focus RS in a company that is currently investing heavily in electrified cars. In total, Ford plans to release a total of 40 all-electric, charging hybrid and light hybrid models by 2022. The cost of the development work is estimated at approximately EUR 8.6 billion.'
