New Ford Product InvestmentsSigh...Ford isn't going to invest in a new gen ICE product...it makes no sense when current platforms with updates can last till the middle of next decade.
They already made their bed with no more traverse mounted vehicles that need V6s in them-they can share a single powertrain in an F-150, Explorer, Bronco, Ranger and their Lincoln equivalents. The 2.3L I4 is plenty powerful enough for FWD applications that might need a V6 in it.
And where are you getting this data on smaller vehicles? There is no shift to smaller cars or sedans. The fuel savings isn't worth it to the average US consumer. The difference between say an Escape (1.5L I3) vs an Explorer (2.3L RWD) in yearly fuel costs is about $600 a year or $11.53 a week more in gas at $5 bucks a gallon driving 15000 miles a year.Tue, 07 Nov 2023 15:11:26 +0000
