Continuously driving at high speeds with heavy loads can be a challenge – but not with Volvo’s new 17-liter Euro 6 engine powering your FH16 truck.
Developed to take on the most demanding transport tasks, the new engine comes with three power levels; 600 hp, 700 hp, and 780 hp. Torque levels have been increased to 3000 Nm, 3400 Nm, and 3800 Nm in the top version.
The higher power and torque levels translate into quicker engine response, better drivability, maximum productivity, and greater fuel efficiency.
The D17 engine is equipped with an efficient turbocharger that enhances engine response and improves the driving experience. Volvo’s innovative, patented wave piston design optimizes combustion and reduces emissions, while the new injection system ensures the best fuel economy, and increased peak cylinder pressure allows for high power.
Sales of the Volvo FH16 with the new engine will start in mid-2024. Production is scheduled for the second half of 2024.
The new engine is available in the new Volvo FH16 Aero and the latest version of the Volvo FH16.
