| Additional Info: Based on Ford’s Group B rally car with a composite body. The rally car had between 350-450 bhp, while road going versions could be upgraded to 300 bhp from the factory (many have since achieved much more). 24 factory built Evolution versions were produced with 420-600 bhp 2.1 litre engines. In 1985 with 580 bhp the Evo set and held the fastest accelerating road car record for 12 years with a 0-60 time of just 3.07 seconds. In 1987 the FIA banned group B rallying and production ended with just 146 RS200’s being built. As a side note some RS200’s now produce well in excess of 600 bhp and have sprinted to 60 mph in just 2.1 seconds. |
