Ford 1.0 EcoBoost I3 specs: 61 ci (1.0L) 3-cylinder, 2.831 x 3.228 in (71.9 x 82 mm) bore and stroke, 10:1 compression. Rated 123 hp, 2014–2017.
The Ford 1.0 EcoBoost I3 is undersquare — the 3.2283" stroke exceeds the 2.8307" bore by 12.3% — a layout that trades peak RPM for leverage and torque low in the range. The 3.2283" stroke does not reach 4,000 ft/min of mean piston speed until about 7,450 RPM, so piston speed is not what limits this engine's revs — valvetrain and breathing are. Each of the 3 cylinders displaces 20.3 ci (333 cc).
10:1 on aluminum heads is in the range that usually runs on pump premium; aluminum sheds heat faster than iron, which makes the same number a little more forgiving.
It is one of 32 engines in the EcoBoost family, the smallest at 61 ci. 4 factory variants share these dimensions, rated at 123 hp across 2014–2017.
