The world’s most efficient diesel engine created a stir
Weichai Power successfully exceeded the 50% thermal efficiency limit in 2020. The company has continued its intensive work since then; It is stated that it makes significant improvements especially on combustion, friction and fuel usage. With this success, it is also said that the new generation diesel engines will consume 14% less fuel compared to their predecessors. Thus, more than 30 million tons of fuel will be saved annually.
It is on the agenda that this technology will be used by many brands in the automotive industry in the coming period. It is also claimed that the engines stand out from their competitors in terms of environmental protection and that the emission level is kept at a very low level. At the end of the day, this development is expected to have a positive impact on many sectors other than automotive.
