Ford Fusion rumored to get 2.0-liter EcoBoost four in 2010

Ford's EcoBoost line of turbocharged engines would proliferate through the Blue Oval's lineup, beginning with the 3.5-liter V6 and then moving downward in displacement to include turbocharged 2.0- and 1.4-liter inline fours. When the wraps came off the 2010 Ford Fusion in LA, we were disappointed that Ford hadn't announced the availability of the 2.0-liter turbo, with horsepower and torque output similar to the blown four-pot offered by GM (260 hp, 260 lb-ft).

During the Detroit Auto Show, the Ford reports that a four-cylinder EcoBoost is likely to be available in the Fusion sometime in 2010. Offering the 2.0-liter EcoBoost engine in both the Fusion and possibly the next evolution of the Explorer.
