rmc523 Posted January 6, 2008 Share Posted January 6, 2008 It is pretty much confirmed. It's been confirmed that it'll have 340-hp? I didn't know that. Where have I been? Those are pretty good numbers. I wonder what type of fuel economy numbers it will produce? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder what type of fuel economy numbers it will produce? In 2009, Ford first will introduce EcoBoost on the Lincoln MKS featuring a 3.5-liter twin-turbocharged V-6. It will produce the power and torque of a V-8 engine with the fuel efficiency of a V-6. In fact, with an estimated 340-horsepower and more than 340 lb.-ft. of torque, the Lincoln MKS will be the most powerful and fuel-efficient all-wheel-drive luxury sedan in the market.

Is it possible that that will be the debut ad? It seemed very much like something they would use as an ad, at least to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmc523 Posted January 6, 2008 Share Posted January 6, 2008 From: Ford Media Ah ha! So the Ford's concept will be the Explorer. Interesting... Thanks for the link. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmc523 Posted January 6, 2008 Share Posted January 6, 2008 From: Ford Media So EcoBoost is the new name for the former TwinForce. Sounds kinda stupid to me, but I guess it's named logically and gets the point across that it's eco-friendly and more fuel efficient while 'boosting' the engine w/ more performance.

I agree, doesn't sound as nice, but I think it will be better received. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmc523 Posted January 6, 2008 Share Posted January 6, 2008 I agree, doesn't sound as nice, but I think it will be better received. And since that was Ford's intention, I think they'll achieve that w/ this new name. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
