BonsBalls Posted September 6, 2016 Share Posted September 6, 2016 Hi I'm a newbie and any advice would be greatly appreciated! I recently bought a Ford Fiesta 1.0 Ecoboost 125 Titanium 5Dr Petrol Hatchback from my local Ford dealership. Thing is I'm a bit confused as to why the badge on the back says ''Econetic Technology'' and not ''EcoBoost'' as I'd been told the econetic badges were for diesels. Thanks in advance to anyone who can help me out I've attached a few pics of the car, absolutely love it. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pullock Posted September 6, 2016 Share Posted September 6, 2016 Congrats on the car :) I believe some of the early versions of the petrol cars with the ecoboost engines came with the econetic badges, then later models were changed to ecoboost. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexp999 Posted September 6, 2016 Share Posted September 6, 2016 Yeah my mum's 2012 (62 plate) Focus Ecoboost is the same, I think as said above, they used those badges on early ecoboost models, before switching to an ecoboost badge. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BonsBalls Posted September 6, 2016 Author Share Posted September 6, 2016 Excellent! Thanks very much guys! I contacted Ford about it but I may as well of talked to the wall, I didn't want to ask the dealership in case the badge issue was down to them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomson Posted September 6, 2016 Share Posted September 6, 2016 Same with my estate - its a 2012 1.6 ecoboost 182 but has the econetic badge, not ecoboost. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supraking Posted September 7, 2016 Share Posted September 7, 2016 i think they swapped to ecoboost badges on the production line in september 2013, but from what i remember people got either badge, or in some instances no badge. either way mines gone the way of a black bag, followed swiftly by the fiesta one. looks so clean without them 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
