The Ford XUJM is a 1,499 cc, inline‑three turbocharged petrol engine produced between 2020 and 2025. It features direct fuel injection, a single twin — scroll turbocharger, and dual overhead camshafts (DOHC). In standard form it delivers 118 kW (160 PS) and 240 Nm of torque, with strong low — end responsiveness for urban and highway driving.
Fitted primarily to the Ford Puma ST and select Focus ST — Line variants, the XUJM was engineered to offer sporty performance with compa…
All production years (2020–2025) meet Euro 6d standards .
The Ford XUJM is a 1,499 cc inline‑three turbocharged petrol engineered for compact performance models (2020–2025). It combines Bosch HDP6 high-pressure direct injection with a twin‑scroll turbocharger to deliver responsive torque and refined power delivery. Designed to meet Euro 6d emissions standards from launch, it balances sporty character with regulatory and environmental compliance.

The Ford XUJM was developed exclusively for Ford's C2 platform with transverse mounting and powers performance-oriented variants. This engine received platform-specific calibrations—enhanced cooling in the Puma ST and stiffer engine mounts in the Focus ST-Line—and from 2023 the facelifted Puma ST adopted updated ECU logic for GPF regeneration, creating ECU 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.

The most common questions about engine codes, what they mean, how to find them and how this database works
The XUJM is generally robust, especially post-mid-2022 builds with the updated HPFP. Early models (2020–2022) require attention to fuel pump health. With correct 5W-30 oil, 95 RON fuel, and regular highway driving for GPF regeneration, it can reliably exceed 200,000 km.
The top issues are high-pressure fuel pump wear (pre-07/2022), GPF clogging from short trips, turbo wastegate rattle, and minor valve cover seepage. All are documented in Ford service bulletins and typically manageable with timely intervention.
The XUJM powers the Puma ST (2020–2025) and Focus ST-Line (2021–2024) in 160–200 PS variants. It is exclusive to Ford’s C2 platform and not used in EcoSport, Kuga, or Transit models.
Aftermarket ECU tuning is common on the XUJM 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 Puma ST, expect ~8.1 L/100km city, ~5.8 L/100km highway, or ~48 mpg UK combined. Focus ST-Line variants achieve ~52 mpg UK due to lower output calibration. Real-world economy drops with aggressive driving or frequent short trips due to GPF regeneration cycles.
Yes. The XUJM is an interference engine. If the timing chain fails (rare but possible), piston-to-valve contact can cause catastrophic damage. However, the chain is front-mounted and designed for life-of-engine service under proper maintenance.
Ford specifies SAE 5W-30 oil meeting WSS-M2C945-B1 standard. This low-SAPS formulation protects the GPF and turbo. Never use older WSS-M2C946-A1 or non-approved oils, as they may increase GPF ash loading or HPFP 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.
