Clearly your wants and needs have or are changing.

Again, if you were willing to go from a 270kW BF F6 I6T to a 198kW EcoLPi Falcon then you could have a car that better than halved your fuel bill. Without having to downsize.

It sounds like you know what you want. I hope you enjoy it. Honestly, i do.

But i'm sure Ford is hoping / planning on lots of people (fleet or private) wanting to keep the power, size, comfort, refinement and versatility of a large car like Falcon but wanting to slash their fuel bills. EcoLPi is their answer. In January they'll also have EcoBoost I4T.
