Detroit 2013 engines updated for GHG14 regs

Jun 27, 2012

Detroit Diesel Corporation announced new enhancements to its engine family for 2013. Engineered to meet federal Greenhouse Gas 2014 (GHG14) regulations, the updated Detroit family of heavy-duty engines combines engine, electronics and BlueTecemissions technology improvements.

All Detroit heavy-duty engines feature the enhanced BlueTec emissions system. New components include a liquid-only DEF delivery system. Detriot’s 1-Box package with fewer parts is now universally-configured for all trucks, resulting in improved serviceability.

Additional changes to every engine include enhanced DDEC engine electronics that contribute to improved engine control, optimized powertrain and BlueTec management and accurate fuel reporting for the customer.
