How Does the Ford EcoBoost® Engine Work?
Discover the Capabilities of the Ford EcoBoost® Engine in Edmond, OK
If you’ve discovered a brand-new Ford in our inventory, you’re not alone. Many of our customers here at Joe Cooper Ford of Edmond from all over Oklahoma have driven home a new, reliable Ford that boasts excellent fuel efficiency. But how are Ford models so gas-conscientious? One vital piece of powertrain technology: the Ford EcoBoost® engine, available in select Ford models. These engines are designed to deliver raw power and better fuel economy than those larger-sized powertrains in competitors’ vehicles. But what makes the EcoBoost® engine unique? How does it help you make less stops at the gas station without sacrificing power? Let’s find out together.
How Does the EcoBoost® Engine Generate its Power?
Twin Independent Variable Camshaft Timing (Ti-VCT)
Ti-VCT adjusts the opening and closing of both the intake and exhaust valves continuously during engine operation. The timing is controlled to maximize the torque and power at peak demand and to minimize fuel consumption during part-load operation.
Turbochargers
Energy from the EcoBoost® engine exhaust that would otherwise be wasted rotates a turbine. The turbine is coupled to a compressor that pressurizes incoming air into the combustion chambers, generating a virtually instantaneous surge of on-demand power, significantly increasing output per liter.
Direct Fuel Injection
Direct injection delivers a precise amount of fuel in a fine mist directly into the combustion chamber to maximize the power output.
