Ford offers two possible upgrades. One is a turbocharged 1.6-liter 4, found exclusively in the Fiesta ST. That vicious little chupacabra makes 197 horsepower and is intended for people who like to party. The other option is less dramatic but more intriguing: For an extra $995 on top of your $16,405 2014 Fiesta SE sedan (or $16,905 hatchback), Ford will sell you a 999 cc 3-cylinder that is both more powerful and more efficient than the 1.6-liter 4-cylinder.

The standard-issue Ford Fiesta is powered by a 1.6-liter 4-cylinder that generates a modest 120 horsepower at 6,350 r.p.m. and 112 pound-feet of torque at 5,000 r.p.m. The lofty r.p.m. numbers for the power and torque peaks tell you all you need to know: This car is largely gutless unless you're riding it to the redline. Even then, the base Fiesta won't strain your sternocleidomastoid with undue G forces.

We've been hearing about new all-aluminum 2015 Ford F-150 since the beginning of the year when it was revealed at the 2014 North American International Auto Show in Detroit, but details on the truck's engines have been kept under wraps. Ford is now slowly beginning to peel back the layers of secrecy surrounding two of the F-150's powertrains, releasing some (but not all) specifications for the standard 3.5-liter V-6 engine and the brand-new turbocharged 2.7-liter EcoBoost motor.

Hybrid:
  • “Vehicle seamlessly switches between gas engine, electric motor or combination of both to deliver fuel efficiency and performance.”
  • “Gas engine and regenerative braking automatically recharge battery pack.”
  • “Doesn’t need to be plugged in.”

EcoBoost:
  • “Turbocharging and direct injection deliver the performance of a larger engine while offering impressive fuel economy.”
  • “Through turbocharging and direct injection, smaller engines can produce more power and maintain efficiency.”
  • “The combination delivers great low-end torque responsiveness to provide power plus fuel economy.”
