The Ford Sierra RS Cosworth, a legend in the world of performance cars, was a high-performance derivative of the Ford Sierra, produced from 1986 to 1992. The RS Cosworth was a testament to Ford's dedication to motorsport and its ability to transfer cutting-edge technology to the road. The heart of the RS Cosworth was its potent 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine, which was developed in collaboration with Cosworth Engineering, a renowned British motorsport specialist. This engine, capable of producing upwards of 200 horsepower, propelled the RS Cosworth to a top speed of over 140 mph, making it one of the fastest production cars of its time. Beyond its raw power, the RS Cosworth was lauded for its exceptional handling, thanks to its sophisticated suspension system and quattro-wheel-drive system. The RS Cosworth's iconic bodywork, featuring a widebody kit with flared wheel arches, distinctive front and rear bumpers, and a large rear wing, further solidified its status as a performance icon.
The Ford Escort RS Cosworth, a successor to the Sierra RS Cosworth, arrived in 1992 and continued the legacy of performance and innovation. This time, the RS Cosworth's foundation was the Ford Escort, a compact hatchback that was transformed into a formidable rally car. Like its predecessor, the Escort RS Cosworth was powered by a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine, now producing 227 horsepower. This engine, coupled with the Escort's lightweight chassis and quattro-wheel-drive system, made it a formidable contender on both the racetrack and the rally stage. The Escort RS Cosworth also featured a distinctive bodywork design, including a widebody kit, large rear spoiler, and a signature rear wing, which served both aerodynamic purposes and to visually distinguish it as a performance machine. The Escort RS Cosworth was produced until 1996, cementing its place as a celebrated chapter in Ford's history of performance cars.
