The engines are produced in Cologne (Germany), Craiova (Romania) and Chongqing (China). The two versions produce 65 hp and 80 hp, and both engines use direct injection and Ti-VCT like the turbocharged versions.

With the introduction of the face-lifted 2013 Ford Fiesta, Ford introduced a naturally aspirated version of 1.0 Fox engine. The engine is packaged in an engine block with a footprint the size of an A4 sheet of paper. The 1.0L EcoBoost GTDI engine uses an oil-bathed timing belt. To quell the natural vibrations of a three-cylinder design, unspecified efforts have been made in the flywheel design to ensure satisfactorily smooth running without the use of energy sapping balance shafts. The engine block is cast iron, which offers, in addition to the required strength, up to 50% faster warm-up than aluminum, at the expense of additional weight. A 140 PS (100 kW 140 hp) version has also been released in the Fiesta Red Edition and Black Edition (some markets), as well as the Focus ST-Line, with 210 N⋅m (155 lb⋅ft) of torque. The 1.0 is built initially in two versions: 74 kW (101 PS 99 hp) and 88 to 92 kW (120 to 125 PS 118 to 123 hp).īoth versions deliver a maximum of 170 N⋅m (130 lbf⋅ft) from 1,400 to 4,500 rpm, whereas higher performing versions can provide up to 200 N⋅m (150 lbf⋅ft) on overboost for 30 seconds, which makes for a broad torque curve when compared to a naturally aspirated gasoline engine. Inline three-cylinder 1.0 L Fox įord produces a 1.0 L turbocharged in-line three-cylinder engine for the EcoBoost family developed at Ford's Dunton Technical Centre in the UK. In 2017, Ford South Africa recalled all Kugas in the country for engine checks. In 2015, a South African man died after becoming trapped in his Ford Kuga after its 1.6-litre EcoBoost engine burst into flames. Safety issues įord has had to refund hundreds of customers worldwide because Ford EcoBoost engines in their vehicles have overheated and, in some cases, caused engine fires. ĭuring Ford's ownership of Volvo (until 2010), it used the term PTDi (petrol turbocharged direct injection) for the 1.6 L I4 engine when introducing Volvo S60 concept and for the 2.0 L I4 engine when introducing Volvo XC60. From the engine's beginning to November 2012, 500,000 Ford EcoBoost vehicles have been sold. Ford expected over 90% of its global vehicle lineup (includes North America) to offer EcoBoost engine technology by 2013. īy 2012, the company planned to produce 750,000 EcoBoost units annually in the US and 1.3 million globally in the world market. The smaller 1000cc-displacement 3 cylinder EcoBoost engine is produced both at Ford Germany in Cologne and at Ford Romania in Craiova. The 1.6-liter I4 EcoBoost engines are assembled at the Ford Bridgend Engine Plant in the United Kingdom. The 2.0-liter I4 EcoBoost engines were produced at the Ford Valencia Plant in Spain in 2009. The V6 EcoBoost engines are being assembled at Cleveland Engine Plant No.

Some of the costs of US development and production were assisted by the $5.9 billion Advanced Technology Vehicles Manufacturing Loan Program of the Department of Energy.
