S13 Integrated Powertrain
UP TO A 15% BOOST IN EFFICIENCY*
Delivering superior operating economy.
Through exhaustive simulation work, a new cylinder and piston head design with maximum cooling properties was created. This new double overhead cam design directly equates to less fuel being consumed. But that’s not all. Thanks to the new Dual Stage Aftertreatment system, the heavy (40-50 lbs), expensive ($2,500 approx.) and finicky EGR cooler is no longer needed to reduce emissions. Its absence not only contributes to the S13 being the lightest 13-liter diesel engine available in North America, but it also means 100% of the exhaust flow goes through the new simple, more reliable fixed-vane turbo charger for maximum performance and efficiency.
A DRIVER'S ENGINE
Providing stellar performance for those behind the wheel.
Keeping the driver comfortable, informed and empowered has been a mantra at International® Truck for decades as part of our DriverFirst™ Philosophy. The International S13 Integrated Powertrain takes it a step further by offering a smooth and quiet operation with superior capabilities. In fact, full torque is available at only 900 rpm and the wide gear ratio means optimal efficiency on flatlands with the performance drivers crave on hilly terrain. And when descending, drivers can rely on the new compression release brake to deliver strong, secure braking power up to 469 hp (at sea level).
