What engine does the Fiesta use?

The engine used in the Fiesta is domestically produced by Changan Ford in China, with Ford providing only technical support. The engine model of the Fiesta is ZY, with a maximum power of 56 kW, maximum torque of 138 Nm, maximum horsepower of 103 Ps, maximum power speed of 6000 rpm, and maximum torque speed of 4000 rpm. For daily maintenance of the Fiesta's engine, the following methods can be used: Use lubricating oil of appropriate quality grade. For gasoline engines, SD--SF grade gasoline engine oil should be selected based on the additional devices of the intake and exhaust systems and usage conditions; for diesel engines, CB--CD grade diesel engine oil should be selected based on mechanical load, with the selection standard not lower than the manufacturer's requirements. Regularly change the oil and filter. The quality of any lubricating oil will change during use. After a certain mileage, performance deteriorates, causing various problems for the engine. To avoid malfunctions, change the oil regularly based on usage conditions and keep the oil level moderate. When oil passes through the fine pores of the filter, solid particles and viscous substances in the oil accumulate in the filter. If the filter is blocked and oil cannot pass through, the filter may burst or the safety valve may open, allowing oil to bypass through the bypass valve and carry contaminants back to the lubrication area, accelerating engine wear and increasing internal pollution. Regularly clean the crankcase. During engine operation, high-pressure unburned gas, acid, moisture, sulfur, and nitrogen oxides from the combustion chamber enter the crankcase through the gap between the piston rings and cylinder walls, mixing with metal powder from component wear to form sludge. A small amount remains suspended in the oil, while a large amount precipitates, clogging filters and oil holes, making engine lubrication difficult and causing wear. Regularly use a radiator cleaner to clean the radiator. Removing rust and scale not only ensures normal engine operation but also extends the overall lifespan of the radiator and engine.
I've been in the car enthusiast circle for quite a while and often chat with friends about the Fiesta's engine configurations. The Fiesta uses Ford's in-house 1.0-liter EcoBoost three-cylinder turbocharged engine. Despite its small displacement, it packs a punch, delivering around 125 horsepower, paired with either a manual or automatic transmission. This engine runs super smoothly in the city, with quick acceleration response, and fuel consumption is just under 6 liters per 100 km. A full tank can easily cover over 400 km. The older models used a 1.4-liter Duratec four-cylinder naturally aspirated engine, but after the update, they mostly switched to the EcoBoost version, which offers more power and is more eco-friendly. If you prefer something hassle-free, this is the way to go. Just remember to maintain the transmission regularly and replace the spark plugs to avoid minor issues ruining the driving fun. It’s quiet and stable to drive, making long trips comfortable—the Fiesta is definitely the king of value for money in its price range.
