SINGAPORE, Feb. 1, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- China Yuchai
International Limited (NYSE: CYD) ("China Yuchai" or the
"Company"), has announced
today that its main operating subsidiary, Guangxi Yuchai Machinery
Company Limited ("GYMCL"), launched four new engines compliant with
National V emission standards covering the light-, medium and
heavy-duty and new energy engine segments. These new engines were
unveiled at GYMCL's Sales & Marketing Conference held in
Kunshan, Jiangsu Province on
January 21,
2016.
The first new engine is YC4Y22-50, a light-duty diesel engine
designed by AVL List Gmbh, the renowned Austrian powertrain
development company, and engineered by GYMCL. This engine has a
displacement volume of 2.17 litres, 120-150 horsepower, and maximum
torque of 360 Nm. Its power, fuel economy and low emissions make it
ideal for use in pickup trucks and small buses.
The next is the YC6K13-50 heavy-duty diesel engine, which has
the highest horsepower and torque in its product category in the
domestic truck market. This new engine was built with improved
piston stroke and reinforced components based on the YC6K12 engine
series. With an increased displacement volume from 12.15 litres to
12.94 litres, 490-580 horsepower and maximum torque of 2,550 Nm,
this engine is ideal for use in trucks that require high
displacement and high horsepower.
GYMCL also launched the YC6JN-60 natural gas engine, which is
the latest upgrade of its YC6J natural gas engine series. With a
minimum natural gas consumption of 197g/(kW.h), this engine is even
compliant with Euro VI emission standards. These engines are ideal
for use in regular and hybrid public transportation buses, highway
and tour buses, and various municipal vehicles.
The final engine that was launched was the National V compliant
hybrid engine for buses to meet China's increasingly stringent requirements on
energy efficiency and environmental protection.
Weng Ming Hoh, President of China
Yuchai, commented, "Lowering carbon emissions is a key goal of the
environmental policy of China's
13th Five-Year Plan. GYMCL continues to remain at the forefront of
addressing emissions reduction through our advanced engine
technology and research and development efforts. Our new National V
compliant engines will directly result in lower emissions from
trucks, buses and municipal vehicles on the road."
