New power from PACCAR: PACCAR puts $1 billion behind the launch of its new engine family

摘要

You might be tempted to say to that the MX diesel engine from PACCAR is all-new. But if PACCAR Chairman and CEO Mark Pigot were close enough to hear, he'd quickly correct you. "While it's true that the MX engine family is new to North America, and the MX engine project is a 10-year effort that is finally coming to fruition, PACCAR has been building engines via our DAF subsidiary in Europe for more than 70 years," Pigot notes. "Currently there are more than 125,000 SCR-equipped MX engines on the road in Europe, and PACCAR has relied heavily on the technology and real-world experience we've gain not only from our MX Engine series, but from the 50-year history of DAF diesel engine development in Europe and the more than 900,000 diesel engines delivered in that time."
