Is it Eeeko-Boost or Echo-Boost? So confused.

Help a brother out here. I'm losing sleep over this and the weekend is coming...

Edit: Okey dokey, it's unanimous. Eeko Boost.

Ford Marketing, FTW!

They pronounce it with a long E in the commercials.

How about we not use such blasphemous names, and just call them "boosty-boost"? I'm pretty sure its eeko.

eeko. "Echo"boost is a mispronunciation or a product of a dialect. "Eco" in ecoboost comes from "ecological" so logic says that ecoboost follows the same pronunciation. You can hear an english pronunciation here

eeko, as in economic, or ecological.

I can only go by what Ford dealers around here call it, Eeko boost.

Another thing that's been bugging me is a Taurus SHO commercial I saw a while back. They kept calling it the Taurus SHOw, instead of ESS H Ohh. I've always known it as individual letters, not as a word
