The 1.6 L 3 cylinder turbocharged EcoBoost engine is an upcoming design in a number of Ford vehicles wearing the Blue Oval badge wearing the Blue Oval badge all around the world within the next few years. The small engine produces 180 hp and 170-175 lb-ft of torque and is more than powerful enough to be used in small sedans and hatchbacks despite it’s small displacement.

Downsize and boost: How Ford’s EcoBoost does more with less

EcoBoost combines turbocharging and direct gasoline injection to up to a 20 % improvement in fuel economy, 15 % fewer co2 emissions and superior driving performance compared with larger-displacement engines.

Gasoline direction injection: Highly pressurized fuel is injected directly into the combustion chamber of each cylinder rather than traditional mixing with 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.

Turbo power: Energy from the engine’s exhaust, that would otherwise be wasted, is used to rotate the turbine wheel. The turbine is coupled to a compressor that pressurizes the incoming air, significantly increasing the output per liter of the engine. The traditional disadvantages of “boosting”, turbo lag and knock, are mitigated by the synergy with direct injection.

Cost savings: With EcoBoost’s more efficient use of fuel, drivers experience the benefits of a larger-displacement engine without the mileage and co2 penalty. For example:

• A 3.5 L V6 EcoBoost would replace naturally aspirated V8 engines.
• A 2.0 L I4 Ecoboost would repalce naturally aspirated V6 engines.
• A 1.6 L I3 EcoBoost would replace naturally aspirated I4 engines.
