Ford Fiesta 1.0L Ecoboost

Opening my emails I see this one, pretty interesting. Don't know if there is another thread here on this but here is the link for everyone to jaw flap about.

There was another story about the 1.0, I think it may have been in the ecoboost forum. I'll be excited to read about MPG projections and how much extra the engine will cost.

Yeah, this ecoboost stuff is pretty interesting technology. Hopefully soon I can read more about it.

Cool link. Didn't seem to be revving very high -- must be a torquey little bugger.

Ford took this engine to an LA show in a suitcase

Thanks for sharing. 148 ft/lb of torque is what I remember reading.

Thats great lol I bet the turbo is about the size of a large softball. You can transport an engine without bustin' your back up man. This engine could take on the label of the suitcase powerplant.

Found it interesting that the timing belt is immersed in oil. Never seen that before.

Lets see, three cylinder cars sold in the USA, weird two cycle Saabs and the Geo Metro/Chevy Sprint. Ford is maybe hedging its bets that gasoline will go up significantly in price again but (correctly) that EV's will not take over if that happens.

Oops, two other strange cars were/are also sold here with I-3's, original Honda Insight and Smart.
