The Ford T7CC is a 1,499 cc, inline‑three turbocharged petrol engine produced between 2018 and 2024. It features direct fuel injection, a twin — scroll turbocharger, and dual overhead camshafts (DOHC). In standard form it delivers 92 kW (125 PS) and 200 Nm of torque, prioritizing urban efficiency with responsive low‑rpm delivery.

All production years (2018–2024) meet Euro 6d emissions standards .
The Ford T7CC is a 1,499 cc inline‑three turbocharged petrol engine engineered for subcompact hatchbacks and crossovers (2018–2024). It combines direct injection with a twin‑scroll turbocharger to deliver brisk low‑end torque and smooth power delivery. Designed to meet Euro 6d standards, it balances urban agility with highway capability.

The Ford T7CC was used across Ford's B2E platform with transverse mounting. This engine received platform-specific adaptations—revised engine mounts in the Puma and compact intake routing in the Fiesta—and from 2022 the Puma adopted an updated HPFP design to mitigate wear, creating minor interchange limits. All adaptations are documented in OEM technical bulletins.
Engine Finders UK Ltd, which operates EngineCode.uk, can pass your enquiry to engine suppliers in the UK. The service is for vehicles in the United Kingdom, with UK delivery or fitting. This is a commercially connected service, and sending an enquiry does not confirm diagnosis or compatibility.
Diagnostic reminder: If a technician has recommended replacing the engine, you can send an enquiry to engine suppliers in the UK. Confirm the diagnosis first: an engine-code record does not diagnose a fault.
Field reports and technical service bulletins highlight component wear patterns under high-load operation. Adherence to manufacturer service intervals and approved fluid specifications is critical for long-term reliability.
Analysis derived from manufacturer technical service bulletins and industry workshop records. Repair procedures should follow manufacturer guidelines.
The most common questions about engine codes, what they mean, how to find them and how this database works
The T7CC is generally dependable with disciplined maintenance. Its main weakness is HPFP wear in pre-2022 models subjected to frequent short trips. Using correct 0W-20 oil and adhering to shortened service intervals in urban use greatly enhances longevity. Most owners report trouble-free operation when driven with occasional highway use.
The top issues are high-pressure fuel pump wear (pre-2022), GPF regeneration faults from short-trip driving, turbo wastegate rattle, and oil dilution in cold climates or stop-start use. These are documented in Ford TSBs and are manageable with OEM-recommended practices.
The T7CC powers the eighth-generation Ford Fiesta (1.5 EcoBoost 125 PS) and Ford Puma (125 PS hybrid and non-hybrid). All meet Euro 6d and feature GPF, twin-scroll turbo, and DOHC inline-3 architecture.
Aftermarket ECU tuning is common on the T7CC platform, but increasing boost or altering engine parameters accelerates component wear, impacts emissions compliance, and may void vehicle warranties. Any modifications should be evaluated carefully by a qualified specialist.
In a Fiesta 1.5 EcoBoost 125 PS, expect ~6.5 L/100km (city) and ~4.7 L/100km (highway), or ~49 mpg UK combined. Puma hybrids achieve ~4.5 L/100km. Real-world figures vary, but 45–50 mpg (UK) is typical for mixed driving with regular highway use.
Yes. The T7CC is an interference engine. If the timing chain fails (rare but possible), valve-to-piston contact can cause catastrophic damage. However, the chain is front-mounted and designed for life-of-engine service under normal conditions.
Ford specifies 0W-20 synthetic oil meeting WSS-M2C949-A. This low-viscosity oil is essential for turbo cooling, HPFP lubrication, and GPF protection. Never substitute with older 5W-30 specs—doing so may void warranty and increase wear.
Comprehensive technical documentation and regulatory references
EngineCode.uk is operated by Engine Finders UK Ltd. It provides engine-reference information and an optional commercial enquiry service. It is not an official manufacturer website. Check the record's sources and confirm vehicle-specific details before relying on it for parts, repairs or replacement.
Our editorial standard prioritises relevant manufacturer documentation and official regulatory sources. The sources and verification status for a record should be checked alongside the data.
A statement is not verified merely because a source is listed. Where supporting evidence is missing or conflicting, the record should identify that limitation. Please report unsupported or inconsistent information.
