Getting better fuel economy will mean dealing with big trucks, too, not just selling more small cars. Ford is already selling lots of F-150s with the slightly more fuel efficient EcoBoost V6 engine.
Coming soon, Ford will be replacing the venerable EconoLine full-sized commercial van with this, the Transit van, a model Ford now sells in Europe. In the U.S., it will come equipped with the same EcoBoost used in the pickup. Thanks to that more efficient engine and a lighter body, the Transit is expected to get at least 25% better fuel economy than today's Econoline van.
