1. Ford EcoBoost EngineWhat is EcoBoost and how does it work?
EcoBoost is Ford’s innovative and efficient engine downsizing strategy. Three critical technologies are in every
EcoBoost engine – Turbocharging, Direct Injection, and Variable Valve Timing – but it’s the unique Ford
software control algorithms that make them work together for the best result: An exhilarating drive and
class-leading Fuel Economy.

Ford’s control algorithms More power Behind the scenes
Highly pressurised fuel is
injected directly into the com-
bustion chamber of each
cylinder rather than traditional
mixing with the incoming air in
the inlet port.
Advantages include more
precise delivery of fuel for lower
emissions, improved volumetric
efficiency and avoidance of
knock for better performance
and fuel efficiency.

Turbocharged engines are not unique to Ford, but EcoBoost is. The proof? Ford’s 1.0L EcoBoost engine has
won International Engine of the Year three times in a row.
