FOFD ESCORT RS COSWORTH

The Ford Escort RS Cosworth is a rally version homologation special of the fifth generation European Ford Escort. It was designed to qualify as a Group A car for the World Rally Championship, in which it competed between 1993 and 1998. It was available as a road car from 1992 until 1996 in very limited numbers.

The first 2500 cars made before 1 January 1993 are in fact "Homologation special versions." It was instantly recognizable due to its large "whale tail" rear spoiler. One of the main selling points was the Cosworth YBT, a highly tunable turbocharged 2.0 L (1,993 cc) with a bore x stroke of 90.8 mm × 77 mm (3.57 in × 3.03 in) Inline-four engine which had an output of 227 PS (167 kW; 224 bhp) in standard trim. Tuning companies have achieved power outputs of over 1,000 bhp (746 kW; 1,014 PS).

The Ford Escort RS Cosworth was a homologation special, meaning that it was built in limited numbers to meet the requirements of the World Rally Championship. This meant that it had to be based on a production car, but it could have more powerful engine and other performance modifications. The Escort RS Cosworth was based on the fifth generation Ford Escort, but it had a number of unique features, including a turbocharged 2.0-liter engine, all-wheel drive, and a large rear wing.

The Escort RS Cosworth was a very successful rally car, winning several events in the World Rally Championship. It was also a popular road car, and it is now considered a classic. However, it is important to note that the Escort RS Cosworth is a very powerful car, and it can be difficult to drive. It is not recommended for inexperienced drivers.
