Additionally, the engine features cast-aluminum, low-friction coated pistons with piston-cooling jets, which squirt oil on the underside of the pistons to keep the piston crowns cool under extreme operating conditions. A pilot injection controls noise levels and a main injection is used for power generation. liter EcoBoost gasoline engine.

Increased efficiency in the new four-cylinders was achieved partly through lower engine friction, which was reduced by up to 16% using new technologies such as a variable-displacement oil pump and, with the 2.5L, an actively controlled thermostat. Even the oil volume is optimized for minimal weight. Air-to-air intercooling system.
