Trucking Efficiency Technology: It's More Than 'Clean Diesel'

摘要

Some time back, a press release from the Diesel Technology Forum touted the latest figures on "clean diesel" trucks being put into operation. And the news was good, indeed: according to the report, "clean diesel" engines are in 30 percent of commercial vehicles on the road today, up from 25.7 percent last year. The numbers used class 3-8 vehicles, or those with a gross vehicle weight rating 10,001 - 80,000 pounds. That's quite a range, certainly, and includes trucks at the lower end that might be considered personal vehicles in some cases.
