Ecoboost how does it work

This allows the onboard computer to calculate more accurately ideal valve timings, so the engine can deliver power during aggressive acceleration while retaining fuel economy. With four cylinders, the 2. The all-new Ford Mustang added the 2.

This 2. The final 2-litre option in the EcoBoost family is the 2. This engine was designed with truck-specific applications in mind, giving it excellent fuel economy under normal driving conditions or while hauling and towing. The engine is made with the same material a compacted graphite iron-aluminum block found in the 6. Introduced in , the biggest EcoBoost engine is the 3.

The Edge utilizes a 2. The entry-level Explorer uses the same powerful engine found in the Mustang, however, upgrade to the Explorer ST and enjoy the 3. Highlighted in the F is the High Output 3. The Expedition uses a more tamed version of the 3. Make your way down to our welcoming car dealership in Columbus, and drive home in your dream car.

Indeed, EcoBoost engines aim to provide better performance while requiring less fuel. In other words, they are designed to deliver more power and torque numbers than their displacement would normally allow while also providing better fuel economy numbers than a similarly-powered, higher-displacement and naturally aspirated engine.

Those improvements are made possible by the two technologies we talked about earlier, the turbocharger and direct fuel injection. In simple terms, a turbocharger is a device that forces more air to the engine which means that the engine is more powerful without needing to be bigger and require more fuel. Direct fuel injection on the other hand is simplified and more efficient method of feeding fuel to the engine.

Ford has achieved this by using two specific technologies. Delivering the first part of the equation — improved economy — is the direct fuel injection system that dispenses with a traditional intake manifold and sprays a precisely measured and shaped jet of atomised petrol into each cylinder at exactly the right moment in the combustion cycle. These increase the performance levels to the point where a 1.

Naturally a 2. That said, in Australia, the smallest 1. A larger 2. The Focus ST gets a larger 2. Ford now offers a new variation of its turbocharged 1.
