Strategic Focus on Gas Engines

In 2000, the decision was made to limit the strategic focus to gas engines and to discontinue the production of diesel engines. Three series were determined in order to cover the output range of 140 to 3,600 kW. The smallest gas engine series comprised V8, V12, and V16 cylinder engines, the medium series consisted of V12, V16, and V20 cylinder engines, and the largest series of V12 and V16 cylinder engines. All three series were continually further developed for optimized efficiency and eco-compatibility.
