Volvo Penta started the production of its most powerful and versatile engine yet, the new Stage V D16. The new 16-liter engine delivers a range of industry leading benefits.
The D16 (TWD1683VE) diesel engine delivers 585 kW (796HP) of power and 3650 Nm peak torque at 1900 RPM. It has been designed to meet the needs of customers working in a range of demanding environments, such as mining, agriculture, construction, forestry and special applications.
The D16 is based on proven technologies that have undergone millions of hours of testing and real-world use. Its versatile performance delivery, response and highly efficient combustion have been proven in real-world applications to help customers reduce their fuel consumption by up to 10%, when compared to the previous model.
On top of its low fuel consumption, the D16’s reliable Exhaust Aftertreatment System (EATS) has been designed to use selective catalytic reduction technology only, removing the need for exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) and a diesel particulate filter (DPF). The optimized EATS design ensures high uptime and low total cost of ownership.
With its dual stage turbo system, the D16 delivers high performance across the operational range, providing high torque at both low and high engine speeds. This enables the engine to meet the requirements of multiple applications, without operators having to compromise between performance and torque. For example, in mining, customers can benefit from both high power and high torque, leading to increased productivity. And in agriculture, where the requirement is often for high torque at low rpm, the D16 is optimized for low fuel consumption.
With easily accessible service points, the industrial engine is simple to maintain and now has an extended oil service interval from 500 to 1000 hours.
