Upcoming Fiesta ST to be powered by a 200Hp 1.0L Ecoboost

**Egan101** · October 1st, 2016 12:10 PM

200 Hp from a small 1.0L turbo engine? Crazy it seems but Ford may soon release the Fiesta ST with the smaller 1.0L Ecoboost engine in place of its current 1.6L Ecoboost engine. However, power output will be about same, in the tune of 200 Hp.

The Next Ford Fiesta ST Could Get a Hot-Rodded 1.-Liter Three-Cylinder

Very possible. It will be much quicker than the Focus ST.

Sadly wala, or else dami na bumili. The Fiesta 1.0L Ecoboost is still a blast to drive, quicker than most cars with 1.5L or 1.6L NA engines. A Bluefin Stage 1 chip is available that will increase engine output from 123hp/170Nm to 154hp/217Nm.

All Ecoboost engines are turbocharged and direct-injected.

They're really pushing the limits of technology here. I wonder if reliability will take a hit with that engine producing enormous power for it's size.

Ford made a Formula Ford racecar with the 1.0L Ecoboost engine tuned to 202hp. I guess 200hp with some good tuning is achievable for a road car engine. The current EUDM 1.0L Ecoboost engine is already rated at 140hp in stock tune.

No arguments there about it being achievable. They can probably make it reach 300HP, but then it can only do so for a few minutes before the engine eats itself to shreds.

But 200HP, when even 1.8L NA engines have a bit of trouble to achieve, will definitely be a factor for longevity on a 1.0L boosted engine, I think.

The big advantage really is with the tuning capabilities of modern turbocharged engines compared to NA engines. Ford was able to make various settings for its potent 1.0L making them available in various outputs (currently at 100hp, 123hp, and 138hp models). Superchips UK sells Bluefin Stage 1 remap kits that enhances the output to much better figures. Superchips are stating that its remap kits will allow the Asian-spec 123hp/200Nm model be easily upgraded to 154hp/247Nm while the newer tune EUDM 138hp/210Nm version can be upgraded to 175hp/287Nm. A little more modification will allow Ford to take figures within the 200hp/300Nm range.

The current Fiesta ST with its 1.6L Ecoboost engine is rated at 200hp/290Nm in its ST200 form. The lower trim models are rated at 197hp/280Nm.
