Doing a hypothetical: Let's say the the typical cost of an engine is 10% of the base price. Given a fiesta base of 17K the 3 cyl ecoboost
would be @ $1,700. The Elio/IAV 3 cyl would be @ $680 p/unit. So Ty plug in real #s & see what we really have? But back to the guess.
The ecoboost is 2.5 times more expensive has about 2.5 times the HP & over 2.5 times the TQ. So $ for dollar there is a relationship here.
There will be,No doubt, lots of ELio conversions forthcoming but the base model is still a lot of bang for the buck..................
