Ford Mustang EcoBoost
Even before the Camaro had a 2.0-liter engine, the Mustang introduced the 2.3-liter EcoBoost unit with 315 HP and a convincing performance. After the global economic recession, Ford was the first major manufacturer to introduce a downsized, turbocharged engine. It looked strange initially, but it proved to be a good business move since the most significant part of Ford’s global engine lineup includes turbocharged four cylinders (via Drive Line).
This influenced the production of the traditional muscle car like the Mustang. When Ford presented the latest generation, the 2.3-liter EcoBoost had a place in their engine lineup. The engine proved to be capable and popular with consumers. It is fast, with a 5.1-second 0 to 60 mph time and a top speed of around 150 mph.
