The Honda Civic Type R has always been one of the hottest hatches in the market but they are definitely not alone as Ford is also working to have a go at it with their Ford Focus RS. Which of these hot hatches do you think has what it takes to take the lead over the other?

When it comes to design, both models do not disappoint. The Honda Civic Type R and Ford Focus RS definitely look the part with their aggressive and sporty looking exterior design.

Under the hood of the Honda Civic Type,R is a 2.0-liter turbo engine that will be delivering about 310hp. The engine will be able to go from 0-62mph in 5.7 seconds. The Ford Focus RS, on the other hand, will come in with a 2.3 liter 4 cylinder turbocharged engine that will be delivering about 320hp, 10hp more than the Type R.

Not only is the Ford Focus RS slightly more powerful but it is also cheaper with a $42,000 price tag compared to the $45,000 that the Honda Civic Type R is asking for. Do you think the Focus RS is better or are you with the Type R?
