EcoBoost Engine introduced to the Chinese market in 2010

At the 2009 Guangzhou Auto Show, which opened on November 23rd, Ford Motor will present the latest EcoBoost engine cutting model for the first time in China. This is the specific technical detail of Ford Motor's first announcement of the green engine in China.

Based on the traditional gasoline engine, EcoBoost engine further adds three key technical advantages: direct fuel injection in the fuel tank, turbocharger and dual independent variable valve timing system, which not only ensures the power output of the helium, but also optimizes the fuel oil. Economical up to 20%, and reduce 15% of carbon dioxide emissions.

Mr. Robert Graziano, Chairman and CEO of Ford Motor Co., Ltd., said: “The EcoBoost engine is an important cornerstone of Ford’s recent sustainable development strategy. It has received 125 patents and patent applications in the United States. 2010 The EcoBoost engine will be introduced into China to benefit Chinese consumers."

“EcoBoost will provide consumers with low fuel consumption, high-performance technology, and reduce the cost of using the vehicle. At the same time, reducing CO2 emissions is also a better solution for the environment we are in. At present, it is related to hybrid and pure electric vehicles. In contrast, the Ford EcoBoost engine is the affordable green technology for the majority of consumers," said Ge Zhinuo.

The three killers of the EcoBoost engine

The Ford EcoBoost engine combines the synergies of three key technologies: high-pressure direct fuel injection, advanced turbochargers and dual independent variable valve timing systems.

Each technology has its own strengths. The integration of the three technologies embodies the EcoBoost engine design concept, including:

Optimized engine efficiency - effectively improves fuel economy by 20% while reducing CO2 emissions by 15%

Richer driving pleasure - strong torque at low speeds and excellent response over a wide speed range

The advantages of small displacement - enjoy the output power of traditional high-emission engines, but has the advantages of small displacement, light weight and low fuel consumption

Benefit consumers' energy efficient engines

The Ford EcoBoost engine can improve fuel economy and reduce CO2 emissions thanks to its combustion system that can burn in a more efficient and cleaner mode.

The core technology is a set of high-pressure fuel tank direct injection system, which can spray a precise amount of small amount of fuel into each cylinder with a pressure of up to 200 bar. The size of oil droplets is generally less than 0.02 mm, which is equivalent to human hair. 1/5 of the diameter.

The Ford EcoBoost four-cylinder engine's intake and exhaust camshafts are equipped with a separate variable valve timing system that optimizes in-cylinder air flow at different speeds, specifically improving engine efficiency and performance at partial loads.

On the other hand, in order to maximize the driving pleasure, Ford EcoBoost engine can achieve high torque at low speed, and has the sensitive response of the engine at high speed.

This benefits from advanced turbocharging technology, and its built-in small, low-inertia rotor can run at speeds of over 200,000 revolutions per minute. The turbines are carefully selected to ensure that the engine obtains maximum torque at 1,500 revolutions per minute or less, while keeping the turbo hysteresis to a minimum, enabling rapid acceleration and rich driving pleasure.

The turbines are carefully matched to ensure that the EcoBoost engine remains powerful and responsive at speeds up to 5,000 rpm, so its peak power output range is wider.

Ford EcoBoost new power technology can be widely used in a variety of models from small cars to heavy trucks. Compared to expensive hybrid and pure electric vehicles, Ford EcoBoost engine can make consumers really affordable.

Perfect combination of small displacement and strong power

One of the key advantages of the Ford EcoBoost engine is the effective reduction of engine displacement, replacing a large displacement conventional naturally aspirated engine with a small displacement engine without sacrificing any power output.

In general, the turbocharger can increase the torque by 50%, so while maintaining strong power, it can significantly reduce the engine's displacement and optimize fuel consumption and exhaust emissions.

In addition, small-displacement engines can reduce internal friction, reduce pumping losses, and reduce overall weight, thereby optimizing efficiency and warming up the car faster. Therefore, the Ford EcoBoost engine can take advantage of low fuel consumption and powerful power in a variety of driving conditions such as urban roads and highways.

An important cornerstone of Ford's sustainable development strategy

The Ford EcoBoost engine is an important cornerstone for Ford Motor Company's recent sustainability strategy. The strategy aims to provide consumers around the world with a large number of popular, affordable, energy-efficient cars.

By 2012, Ford Motor will achieve annual production of 1.3 million EcoBoost engines per year. By 2013, 90% of Ford's products worldwide will be equipped with EcoBoost engines.

Recently, the EcoBoost V6 engine has just won the "Top 10 Star Products of the 2009 Breakthrough Award" issued by the popular magazine "Popular Mechanics".
