Take a rocket ride through the sequential gearbox and blow through some twisties and find out exactly what makes this car Ken Block’s latest Gymkhana weapon of choice."—Official description[1]
The 2016 Hoonigan Gymkhana 9 Ford Focus RS RX - abbreviated as "Ford Focus RX"[2] or "Hoonigan Focus" and previously referred to as "Ford GYMKHANA 9 Focus RS RX"[3] - is an all-wheel drive rallycross car by Hoonigan and Ford.
It appears in Forza Horizon 3 as part of the Blizzard Mountain Expansion, as standard in Forza Motorsport 7 and Forza Horizon 4, and in Forza Horizon 5 as part of Series 18.
Synopsis[]
The Ford Focus RX is a 2017 Ford Focus RS-based rallycross car built by Hoonigan Racing in conjunction with M-Sport. It is driven by Ken Block of Gymkhana fame in the 2016 FIA World Rallycross Championship and the Gymkhana 9 video.
Engine and drivetrain[]
The Ford Focus RX is built on the Focus RS, with a tuned two liter (1,983 cc) turbocharged inline-four engine, with power output rated at 600 hp (447 kW) and torque output rated at 664 ft·lb (900 N·m). It is equipped with a six-speed manual transmission driving all four wheels. Typical for rallycross cars, the Focus RS RX has short gearing that favors acceleration over top speed.
Performance[]
The Focus RS RX has extremely quick 0 to 60 mph (97 km/h) acceleration that is achieved in 1.9 seconds, outclassing even hypercars such as the Porsche 918 Spyder, Ultima Evolution Coupe 1020, and Bugatti Veyron Super Sport. Its astounding acceleration is also evident in its five-second run to 100 mph (161 km/h). The only car that has a faster acceleration to 60 mph (97 km/h) is the Hoonigan Ford "Hoonicorn" Mustang with 1.8 seconds.
The Focus RS RX handles and brakes really well, especially off-road. Combined with the quick acceleration, it is extremely competitive for both asphalt and offroad tracks. Its short gearing limits the top speed to only 144 mph (232 km/h) however, although the gearing is noticeably wider in Forza Motorsport 7 that increases top speed to 181 mph (291 km/h).

Welcome Pack[]

Trivia[]
- It is featured on the cover art for the Blizzard Mountain Expansion in Forza Horizon 3.
- Unlike the other cars included in the Blizzard Mountain Expansion, the Ford Focus RX normally does not appear in the Autoshow as it has to be unlocked by completing the "Kingmaker" event.
- The "Kingmaker" event forces the player to use the Ford Focus RX, regardless of whether or not they have the car, although any car can be used after the player has won the event.
- Finishing the "Mountain Rush Descent" event using the Ford Focus RX within less than 2 minutes unlocks the "All Downhill from Here" achievement.
- In Forza Horizon 4, it is featured in the "Gymkhana Special" Forzathon Weekly Challenge.
