Because Dave from marketing turned up to work in his company Mondeo in his grey suit and said to his boss that the work 'tec' is cool because it's like the word tech but spelled wrong and tech is shortform for technology. To which Dave's fat balding boss thought that he would listen to him as he has a degree in marketing.

I-VTEC Intelligent Variable Valve Timing and Electronic Lift Control

The first Zetec-branded engine was the Zeta family, introduced for the 1992 model year powering the fourth generation of the European Ford Escort and Orion. The "Zeta" name was dropped in favour of "Zetec" when Italian car maker Lancia threatened to sue Ford for trademark infringement.
