[Pacific Auto Network, Technology Channel]Ford 2.0L GTDi engine was first deployed in 2011 Ford in China. This GTDi engine, which combines advanced technologies such as turbocharging and direct injection, is better than Volkswagen’s TSI and GM’s EcoTec T. This article will give you a detailed analysis of Ford’s GTDi engine used in Mondeo-Win.
● Engine basic parameters:
The meaning of GTDi
GTDi is an abbreviation for Gasoline, Turbocharged and Direct Injection, which means that the engine is a gasoline engine with turbocharging and in-cylinder direct injection technology. Advanced turbocharging technology and in-cylinder direct injection technology enable the Ford GTDi engine with a displacement of only 2.0L to exhibit the power output of a large-displacement engine and the high torque characteristics of a diesel engine.
Before conducting an in-depth analysis of the Ford 2.0L EcoBoost GTDi engine, let’s take a look at this official video to have a sentimental understanding of this engine. Although it is an official video, there is actually a lack of rigor in it. After watching this article and then watching the video, you will easily notice that the answer will be revealed in the article on the last page.
Ford 2.0L EcoBoost GTDi engine life mystery
The EcoBoost direct fuel injection turbocharged engine technology has received 125 patents and patent applications in the United States. The EcoBoost V6 is the first product of the EcoBoost series of engines and is mounted on the 2007 Lincoln MKR concept car. The V6 engine uses the Ford Duratec 35 V6 engine body and raises the fuel pressure to 190bar for direct injection in the cylinder; at the same time, the Garrett GT15 turbocharger runs at 170000rpm and provides an intake pressure of 1.06bar. The engine is designed to output the power equivalent of a typical 6.0 L or larger V8 engine, while improving fuel economy and reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 15% compared to the V8 engine. It is precisely because this engine technology can increase power while reducing emissions that it is named EcoBoost, which can be understood in Chinese as "promoting environmental protection".
Closer to home, the 2.0L EcoBoost GTDi engine that I will focus on in this article was first used in the 2008 Ford Explorer America concept car, and the power output was tuned to 275PS and 380Nm. The engine announced that it has the performance of a 3.0L V6 engine while optimizing fuel economy by 10% -20%. Its official production time was in 2010. The Ford S-MAX, the Ford Galaxy, and the familiar Mondeo Victory all used this engine.
The 2.0L EcoBoost GTDi engine used on the 2011 Mondeo Win is available in two different versions, the high-powered version and the low-powered version. The Mondeo Win with the high-powered version is identified as a GTDi240, indicating that it can output a maximum power of 240PS, while the Mondeo Win with the low-powered version is identified as a GTDi200, indicating that it can output a maximum power of 203PS. The specific parameters of the two different engines can be found in the basic parameters listed at the beginning of the article.
Ford is expected to launch 1.6L and 1.0L engines using EcoBoost technology in China in 2013. The two new engines will be installed in the new Focus and Fiesta cars.
