FPT Cursor 9 CNG Engine

FPT Industrial introduces the 6-cylinder Cursor 9 CNG engine. 

• Based on the Cursor 9 diesel architecture
• Offers power up to 400 hp (298.28 kW) at 2,000 rpm, and torque up to 1,700 Nm (1253.86 ft.-lbs.) at 1,200 rpm
• Emissions output is lower than that required by Euro 6 emissions regulation
• Provides 9 L diesel equivalent power in an 8.7 L package
• Suited for applications such as heavy haulage, garbage collection, city and intercity transportation
• Powered by natural gas in its compressed (CNG), liquefied (LNG) or renewable form (bio-methane)
• CO₂ emissions of natural gas are significantly less than diesel counterpart, and can be close to zero using bio-methane
• Uses stoichiometric combustion to generate power
• Relies on a simple three-way catalyst to comply with Euro 6, eliminating the need for exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) or selective catalytic reduction (SCR)
• Features increased displacement, new multipoint fuel injectors and a new fuel rail to allow for higher flow rates
• Modified cylinder head, characterized by intake ports with an optimized swirl angle, enables reduced fuel consumption
• Ni-Resist cast-iron exhaust manifold and water-cooled wastegate turbocharger increase reliability
• Use of new piston rings increase oil service intervals by 17% versus Cursor 8 CNG
• Can be coupled to an automated robotized transmission to help increase operator comfort
