Ford Continues Commitment to Innovation and Fuel Efficiency with the 2014 Fiesta EcoBoost
The 2014 Ford Fiesta EcoBoost, now available at Terry's Ford of Peotone, boasts an award-winning engine and best-in-class highway fuel economy.
Online, November 21, 2013 (Newswire.com) - Terry's Ford, a premier Peotone, IL Ford dealership, has been sharing the latest details around the 2014 Ford Fiesta EcoBoost, an innovative model that exemplifies Ford's initiative to provide drivers with highly fuel-efficient performance. When loaded with a new small three-cylinder 1.0-liter EcoBoost, the 2014 Fiesta will don the title of America's most fuel-efficient non-hybrid, gasoline-powered car on the highway.
The 1.0-liter EcoBoost offers drivers an EPA-estimated rating of 45 mpg on the highway, pushing 2014 Fiesta models equipped with the award-winning engine option to the top of the subcompact class for best-in-class highway fuel economy. Mated under the hood to a five-speed transmission, the combination produces 123 hp and 125 lb-ft of torque. Drivers will also find that the 1.0-liter EcoBoost can grab 145 lb-ft of torque for up to 15 seconds courtesy of a special overboost function on board.
Ford partnered the 1.0-liter EcoBoost with an aerodynamic design for the 2014 Ford Fiesta to assist in the vehicle's ability to produce highly fuel-efficient performance. For example, the Manual EcoBoost Package on the Fiesta SE welcomes features such as a rear spoiler, low rolling resistance tires, and side air deflectors meticulously designed to work with the flow of the vehicle as it travels through the air with speed rather than to create resistance and increased fuel needs.
The 2014 Fiesta EcoBoost is also home to a significant suite of technologies, offering drivers features such as a new SYNC with MyFord Touch system and 6.5-inch touch screen, Ford MyKey, SYNC AppLink capabilities for smartphones, navigation, and rearview camera.
As the EcoBoost technology continues to spread throughout the Ford family of vehicles worldwide, so does Ford's initiative to offer the engine options on relatively 80 percent of the company's nameplates across the globe by the end of the year.
