Yes, 1.5/1.6, 2.0, 2.3 for sure. A lot of the new Mustangs that are being sent overseas are 2.3L models, but the most popular orders are ones with the 5.0L.
Ford fiesta...ford B-max..ford C-max.. Ford Mondeo..ford Focus...1.0 ecoboost

Yep, we get all those here, along with the 1.0. We don't yet see any of the V6's.
Focus (apart from the ST) is now only available here with the 1.5 EB engine. It also runs a conventional 6 speed automatic - the disastrous Powershift has been dropped.

I totally forgot about the 1.0L.
That is awesome they dropped the DSP6 on the Focus there. It is a complete and total disaster from a service perspective. The clutches take 8-12 weeks to come in at a minimum. I ordered about 250 in November and received 7 from that order in late March.

Plenty of reason for certain countries. Extra tax on larger motors and not much sales of a f150 over seas same for the flex and Taurus.
Down Under they used to have a supercharged in-line six that was way cool. Never made it to NA. Don't know if it made it to Euro...
In South America I understand that they are still using the Y-Block for trucks and industrial applications ...

Show's the era and location I am from. I think of those as smaller motors

Do they use the Ecoboost design outside of the USA in any numbers? If so what displacements are used/popular?
Thanks
Here's the 2.0 in the falcon, making it the first Oz platform to have 4, 6, and 8 cylinders available in the same chassis

That used to be GM's forte.

Does your Fiesta ST have the same 1.6 EcoBoost that we get in ours?

I have a customer with a 2015 Ford Lobo with the 3.5 Ecoboost.
On Tuesday a Nissan Tiida [Versa] came in with Ecoboost AWD badges on the front door. I resisted the urge to inform the customer that his Nissan was neither a Ford, nor a turbo, nor even four wheel drive.

Didn't the early Commodore have 4, 6 & 8 cylinder options for a few years ?

Yes. My interest is only in the Ford Ecoboost. I am just curious how their usage in other parts of the world compared to the USA.

Yeah, VC series (GM) Holden Commodore, 1980-81
Engines:
1.9L I-4
2.85L & 3.3L I-6
4.2L & 5.0L V8
But, it is good to see it back in the Ford Falcon, and this time the Falcon Turbo I-4 is worth having, unlike the old 58kW Starfire Four from the early 80's

Shannow said Falcon was the first Oz platform to have 4, 6 and 8 cylinders...VB Commodore was based on an Opel platform.
