Forklift engine shortlisted
Doosan Industrial Vehicle UK’s innovative G2 diesel forklift engine has been shortlisted in two categories for the FLTA’s Annual Awards for Excellence 2014.
In contention for both the ‘innovation’ and ‘environment’ awards, the G2 engine takes a new approach to reducing particulates while delivering robust high performance.
The G2, fitted to 2.0t to 3.5t forklift models, uses a new combustion system to comply with the latest emissions legislation while removing the need for a diesel particulate filter (DPF). The resulting clean burn engine not only meets US Tier 4-final and EU Stage IIIB emissions requirements – but also powers the EU’s first Euro IV compliant trucks.
Other features of the G2 engine include an advanced fuel injection system which improves fuel efficiency by 33% while reducing vibration by 33% and noise levels by 10%.
