Detroit Diesel DD13 engine performance and efficiency

The DD13 ^® engine builds upon the Detroit industry-leading heavy-duty engine legacy and proven technologies to bring efficiency and performance to the next level. The DD13 engine offers the best of the best in cutting-edge diesel engine technology and engineering, resulting in the most reliable diesel engine for your truck.

Its features include:

• A swirl piston design for better combustion
• State-of-the-art turbo for rapid torque performance
• Advanced thermal management for extended idle
• Low load PTO operation for fewer regens
• Extended DPF service intervals for maximum uptime
• Greater fuel efficiency than ever before
• Increased downspeeding with IDP ratings

THE DD13 TAKES THE REPUTATION OF THE DD15 TO NEW HEIGHTS.

NEW VOCATIONAL FEATURES INCLUDE:

• Versatility for a wide range of applications.
  • New power ratings, greater application coverage, and available front and rear engine power take offs (FEPTO / REPTO).
• Greater reliability than ever before.
  • Engineered to offer less complexity and more durability in many of its key components, the DD13 achieves an even higher standard of reliability.
• Longer maintenance intervals.
  • The new Detroit^® Aftertreatment System does more with less. This new ATS features a single, larger Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) with Asymmetric Cell Technology for increased service intervals and 60-pound weight savings in a smaller housing. The new ATS works hand in hand with the Detroit heavy-duty platform of engines through techniques such as Asymmetric Injection and Auto-Elevate to ensure optimal temperatures, leading to fewer regens. When paired with the Detroit Vocational or On-Highway Series of DT12^® transmissions, the engine can also ThermoCoast, keeping temperatures up during low load driving.
• Better combustion for better fuel economy.
  • Ultra-high compression ratios combined with a new swirl piston design and a new, 10-pin injector create better combustion, reduce ash production, and improve fuel economy by up to 4.0 percent.
• Detroit’s trusted service and technology.
  • Detroit’s #1 service network, along with the Detroit Connect Virtual Technician^® remote diagnostic system, helps maximize uptime.
