| Chronology | |
| Predecessor | Ford Dover engine |
The Ecotorq engine has been developed along the second generation Ford Cargo (H298) heavy duty truck, which is a in-house project of Ford Otosan. First generation of Ecotorq engine made its debut in 2003. It replaces the Ford Dorset/Dover series water-cooled turbodiesel engine and competes for the Turkish local market with Cummins B and C series engines used in various BMC trucks, and with Mercedes-Benz and MAN heavy duty engines.
Ecotorq is built two different generations by its debut. Unlike its predecessor, all generations of Ecotorq engine are mounted on the axis of the chassis rather than Dover series engines are mounted with angle, watercooled and 24-valve valvetrain architecture.
First Generation
editFirst generation of Ecotorq engines made its debut in 2003 along the Ford Cargo (H298) with 7.3L displacement.
