Ford Announces Amazing New Engine
Friday, 8. October 2010
Ford has announced their plans to create the ‘most significant’ engine ever. They are close to making a spectacular breakthrough that will drop the fuel consumption on some of their most popular cars to 100 miles per gallon. The goal will be reached within the next 5 years. The power unit is a new 3 cylinder engine has been created by their research team in Holland. The final decision to go into production lies with the development engineers based in Dunton in Essex. The engine will have a 1.0 litre engine but the small engine will generate either 100PS or 130PS giving sufficient power to drive the new Fiesta or the latest C-Max. Ford are also working on 2.0 litre and 3.0 versions of the leaner engines to be launched in due course. How do you feel about it, electric cars or leaner petrol engines? By Graham Hill
