The Ecoboost Falcon will have at least 175 kw and 350nm, very close to the I6 and at least 50-80kg lighter. Its power to weight and torque to weight will be very close to the I6.
Early indications are that the Falcon EB4 will use 8 or less L per 100, around 20% better than I6. They claim 0 to 6%. |
i admit the test is flawed. However its free advertising for the falcon. Outside of ford fans and fleet managers no one knows and really cares about the ecoboost engine. Articles like this, although flawed get the word out about the new engine.
When the ecoboost falcon is released and it performs better then these results, which it will, it will only make the falcon look better.
