Ford will debut a concept version of a high-performance Focus model at the upcoming Paris Auto Show. Calling it an "exciting performance model" it will be a concept and not a production version, but it's likely to be quite close to reality with Ford already announcing plans to deliver a "global performance model" of the new Focus using EcoBoost technology.

This won't be an RS model and Ford recently announced the turbocharged 2.5-liter 5-cylinder in the current Focus RS has been discontinued as it no longer meets increasingly strict emissions requirements.

We're excited by the possibility that this new high-performance Focus (possibly named ST in Europe and SVT in the U.S.) will get a 250-hp version of the EcoBoost 2.0-liter 4-cylinder, however, there's also a strong possibility that we'll see a smaller turbocharged 1.6-liter EcoBoost 4-cylinder with closer to 180-hp.
