DD15™
The
DD15 delivers what you need, when you need it, in a way that you've never
experienced before. It's called torque response. And it gives you the get
up and go you need to conquer hills, pass when you want and deliver your
load on time. And it all happens with more power, less fuel and better
performance than ever before. The DD15 won't just change the industry. It
will change the way you drive. Before, climbing hills was tough: you kept
your foot on the pedal and your hand on the shifter. Now, instant
gratification is the name of the game. That's because the DD 15 delivers
90% peak torque in 1.5 seconds Other engines take up to 4.4 seconds. That
means, in 1.5 seconds, other engines reach only half their power while
the DD15 gives you all the power you demand.
Here's how:
- A breakthrough innovation called 'Turbo Compounding'
- Amplified Common Rail Fuel System (ACRS™)
- A simple and reliable pre-EPA '98 non-wastegated and non-variable
geometry-style turbocharger
- Low inertia, dual overhead camshafts
The ACRS works in unison with our DDEC® VI electronics to deliver the
exact amount of fuel you need at just the right moment, creating the most
optimal combustion event. The DD15's extremely high compression ratio of
18.4:1 produces more cylinder pressure than other designs. This means
greater power and faster torque response than ever before.
