Ford's EcoBoost packages existing engine developments into a cohesive package for fuel economy and power.Turbocharging and gasoline direct injection (GDI) have been around for some time currently, but periodically included on various models. Ford took these technologies and other engine refinements and created the EcoBoost brand name which it relates to its new forced induction gasoline engines.
Ford this week let slip a few details on one of the upcoming models that will receive EcoBoost -- the Ford Focus. The EcoBoost-packing variant will be showcased at the Paris Motor Show, which is available on this month.
As the 2012 Ford Focus Electric (a battery-electric-vehicle) is stealing most of the headlines these days, the EcoBoost-ed 2012 Ford Focus ST is certain to turn some heads as well. The vehicle is the successor to the recent international model and will put back the current North American-exclusive model, part of Ford phase-out its North American-exclusive designs.
It packs an EcoBoost 2.0 L inline-four cylinder engine that makes 247 hp. When the car is officially revealed in Paris we should hear more about the torque and target gas mileage.
