ecoboost

Ford Motor Company is introducing a new technology called EcoBoost that will deliver up to 20 percent better fuel economy on half a million Ford, Lincoln and Mercury vehicles annually in North America during the next five years.

In the upcoming Detroit car show, GM will be displaying environmentally-friendly show cars, like the new Cadillac Provoq, but it will also be rolling out its most powerful sports car ever, the 200 mph Corvette ZR1. Is there someplace in the middle where green technology can also deliver the sort of performance that plenty of buyers still want? Several manufacturers are betting that’s possible.
