Doosan are to supply all new diesel 4.0t to 9.0t capacity trucks with a new Interim Euro Stage IIIB (iT4) engine, meeting all requirements of the European emissions directive (2004/26/EC) for vehicles in the 37 to 56-kW power range. Engine makers have been focussing on reducing emissions through a variety of ways in the run up to the implementation of Euro Stage 4 / Tier 4 emissions regulations, which comes into force for off road vehicles in 2014. Doosan, which manufacturers its own engines, feels the interim engine means it is on target to meet next year’s tough new standards.
