with either 550 horsepower 650 horsepower or 750 horsepower and is delivered on the fh-16 series which manages combination weights up to 185 tons regardless of output level you'll have access to an impressive level of torque across a wide range of engine speeds the torque curve is really flat you'll be able to stay in high gears even during climbs and benefit from great driving comfort and low fuel consumption oil intervals on the D16 is up to 100 000 kilometers and is able to drive on biodiesel as well the d16k with 750 horsepower is the most powerful inline six engine produced and has a dry weight of only 1 324 kilograms man d-38 man truck and bus is one of Europe's leading commercial vehicle manufacturers and is part of the Triton Group which includes Scania and Navistar International and is owned by Volkswagen man produces engines from 160 horsepower in the small d08 up to the d38 engine with 640 horsepower the most used engine is the d26 which is a 12.4 liter inline 6 engine with up to 510 horsepower this is the most fuel efficient engine and can be chosen on both the man tgx and TGs if you want a bit more power the more powerful d38 is available the man d38 engine is man's most powerful Engine with up to 640 horsepower and 3 000 newton meters this inline 6 engine is a 15.2 liter engine with two-stage turbocharging in addition to two-stage turbocharging the engine uses intermediate charge cooling that employs two air-to-water intercoolers when after the first turbocharger and another after the second turbo man says this design can lower the charge air temperature to the point that it's actually cooler than the engine coolant man tgx d-38 vehicles are designed for maximum reliability and low service costs what's more they enable considerably higher payloads thanks to their particularly lightweight design with an engine dry weight of only 1 345 kilograms when you're in a workshop you can't make money therefore as little downtime as possible is an important factor that's why man's d38 runs a full 140 000 kilometers on a service so you don't have to visit the workshop constantly Mercedes-Benz om-473 Mercedes-Benz trucks are one of the world's largest commercial vehicle manufacturers with over 40 production sites around the globe and more than 100 000 employees they offer light medium and heavy duty trucks City and Intercity buses coaches and bus chassis Mercedes truck engine range goes from the small 5.1 liter engine with 156 horsepower all the way up to the strongest Mercedes-Benz engine the om-473 which is an inline 6 engine with 15.6 liters performing 625 horsepower and 3 000 newton meters the om-473 is available on the Mercedes-Benz actros and a-rox making it able to transport up to 250 tons by the start of production the om-473 engine had covered 1.15 million test miles including intense driving Cycles in the Spanish Sierra Nevada cold tests in Scandinavia and endurance runs in South Africa the engine Series has a highly Innovative common rail system with very high injection pressures furthermore they have the possibility to shape the profile of fuel injection this means that they inject varying amounts of fuel in several stages during the injection duration of several milliseconds this has an optimal impact on consumption in all RPM ranges the om-473 is a lightweighter with a weight of only 1284 kilograms which has a positive effect on fuel consumption but still has enough power to do the job now to the result which of the truck engines is the overall best the Scania V8 has the most horsepower and Newton meters and is the most powerful truck engine in the world the Mercedes-Benz om473 is the lightest of the engines with a dry weight of only 1284 kilograms both the Scania V8 and the om-473 take the win with the longest service intervals of up to 150 000 kilometers when it comes to amount of engines offered the man Mercedes and Volvo all have five different engines where Scania only have four Volvo is one of the world's biggest manufacturers and has more than 2 000 Service locations around the world which is more than the others we would like to include factors like fuel economy and maintenance repair cost into this list but in order to come up with a real answer it requires data from halliers since how far a truck drives per liter and how many service costs there are vary according to the type of driving weight climate terrain the driver and much more so with the factors we have included the best engine is both the Scania V8 and the Volvo d16k followed by the Mercedes-Benz engine and the man d-38 last what truck engine do you believe is the best and why leave a comment below and let us know thanks for watching and remember to subscribe for much
