ST. CLAIR SHORES, Mich.- Worldwide, consumer demand for an engine
that offers both performance and fuel efficiency has grown, specifically for
the Ford EcoBoost engine. And as a result of that increasing demand,
today Ford Motor Company celebrates the production of the 2 millionth
EcoBoost Engine!
The EcoBoost engine line launched just
four years ago in 2009 and the automaker's recent manufacturing
milestone is due to the drastic growth in demand for EcoBoost-powered
vehicles. This interest in major markets worldwide has driven the recent
increase in production. Factory output of Ford EcoBoost engines now averages
more than 100,000 engines per month, when just one year ago output only
averaged 65,000 engines per month!
But it's not surprising that attraction to
the EcoBoost engine line has continued to increase. The engine's combination of
a smaller overall size, turbocharging, direct injection, and variable valve
timing provides drivers with excellent performance and a 20% increase in fuel
economy compared to larger-displacement gasoline engines.
Today Ford
celebrates the 2 millionth EcoBoost engine which was a 2.0-liter engine powering
a new Ford Escape. But you can enjoy EcoBoost performance and fuel efficiency
in approximately 80% of the automaker’s global nameplates powered by the five
EcoBoost models: 1.0-liter three-cylinder, 1.5-liter, 1.6-liter, 2.0-liter four
cylinder, and 3.5-liter V6!
