GROWING, FROM A SOLID BASE: MAN Truck & Bus develops diesel engines for diverse applications from a base engine platform

摘要

In just about any endeavor, it's fundamental to start with a solid base and use it as a foundation to grow. That's basically the same philosophy that MAN Truck & Bus used to develop a family of engines - its D2862/2868 V-engine series - that started with a base engine from which variants for completely different applications were then derived. With its diesel engines, MAN serves many different markets that fall into four main areas: Off-road, which includes agricultural and construction machinery, as well as locomotives and rail-cars; Marine, with primary applications in yachts and working vessels; Power generation engines used in gen-sets; On-road for vehicles, mainly trucks and buses.
