    The 123 bhp version of the 1st generation 1.0 ECOboost has 170 Nm of torque and 200 Nm of torque during OverBoost.

    The 138 bhp version of the 1st generation 1.0 ECOboost has 180 Nm of torque and 210 Nm of torque during OverBoost.


    At full throttle the torque output is raised to OverBoost for a maximum period of 30 seconds. However when accelerating and changing gears the OverBoost functionality is available for a longer period because it resets if the throttle is released during shifting.

    On the Fiesta the maximum torque is reduced in 1st and 2nd gear and OverBoost will not be activated in these gears. The reason behind this is to protect the old 5-speed IB5 gearbox which was never designed to handle these high torque figures.     The 138 bhp version has an uprated version of the 5-speed IB5 gearbox but history showed that this uprated version is also not capable to handle the high torque figures.
