Mileage you need. Power you want.
The award-winning EcoBoost is Ford’s most technologically advanced engine ever. Delivering up to 20% better fuel efficiency with outstanding performance, it truly offers the best of both worlds.
Direct Injection
Improved fuel efficiency and optimised power delivery.
Winch
Increased engine torque and fuel economy.
Suspension Upgrade (SORV)
Extra power and torque on demand.
How EcoBoost optimises fuel economy
Direct Injection
A high-pressure fuel system injects fuel directly into the combustion chamber, regulates how much fuel is needed at any given time, and cools the charge to enable higher compression ratios. This greatly improves efficiency while generating more power compared with a port-injected engine.
Variable camshaft timing
EcoBoost engines precisely control the intake and exhaust valves to match changes in engine speed and load. The result is improved fuel economy, reduced exhaust emissions, and increased low-end engine torque.
Downsizing
EcoBoost’s lightweight design improves fuel economy, while fewer cylinders mean less friction and more energy saved. Yet, thanks to turbocharging and direct injection, EcoBoost delivers the power of a much larger engine.
Turbocharging
Turbocharging uses the engine’s exhaust gases, which would otherwise be wasted, to push more highly compressed air into the engine. This provides a huge boost in power while variable cam timing helps eliminate “turbo lag” at low rpm.
Did you know?
A street-legal Formula Ford racing car with a specially-tuned 1.0L EcoBoost has clocked one of the fastest laps ever at Germany’s legendary Nurburgring circuit. Its impressive time of just 7’22” beat the likes of the Lamborghini Aventador and Ferrari Enzo.
