Ford Focus 1.0-litre Ecoboost (2012) CAR review | Road Testing Reviews | Car Magazine Online
99 bhp 125 lbsft of torque at 1400rpm 58.8mpg available now in a ford focus.
I'm glad to see another 3 cylinder coming to production cars.
Was wondering what you guys think of this engine. As far as transplanting this into your car or trike project, would this be the best option? If the focus is rated at 58.8 with this engine, then should't it be more fuel efficient than the Prius and 1st gen Insight engines especially since it relies only on the three cylinder and not electric assist?
Better viable option as opposed to importing a three cylinder diesel from over seas that may or may not meet emissions?
