Ford PH's P1.1B FFV Engine Plant

[mazdamazda]

Just read it in the papers yesterday...

- It costed P1.1B
- It will be manned by an all Filipino crew of 100 persons
- This will churn out the FFV (capable of an E20 blend) 1.8L & 2.0L engines of the SEA Ford Focus
- They will also export the engine to South Africa
- 100K+ engines will be manufactured (worth more than P5B) over 5 years

At ~960 thou pesos, the ranger trekker crdi is a great choice.

It's an FFV plant... not diesel.

Let's hope that, even with their current cash problems, Ford finds success here in the Philippines. They're one of the few car manufacturers to actually expand operations here.
