While it may still be a bit too soon to say for sure, we at Ford Lincoln of Columbia nonetheless believe our beloved American brand just may have built one of the very best hot hatchbacks the world has ever seen with its latest, the 2017 Focus RS.

Sure -- that's some lofty praise. But lofty praise is precisely what we feel this sport-tuned superstar deserves!

And now, here to cite some of the Focus RS's best qualities is AutoGuide.com Road Test Editor Dan Ilika; join him in the clip below:

There is only one trim level available for the Focus RS; thankfully, though, it's about as close to fully loaded as one can get.

Standard equipment includes dual-zone auto climate control, partial leather upholstery, front Recaro sport seats, a leather-wrapped tilt-and-telescoping steering wheel, the SYNC 3 infotainment platform, an 8-inch touchscreen, Bluetooth connectivity, voice-command functionality, a media player interface, as well as a 10-speaker Sony sound system, complete with HD and satellite radio.

So, what's the delay, loyal reader? The time is now to experience the brilliance of this beefcake. As such, we invite you to pop by our Columbia, TN facility, whereupon we'll gladly arrange a test drive in the Focus RS, or any other Ford model that's made your must-see list.
