Up to 4% lower fuel consumption and CO₂ emissions
Fuel remains one of the largest operating costs for truck fleets. Operators also face growing pressure to reduce emissions while maintaining vehicle productivity and meeting increasingly demanding delivery schedules. The DE13 R meets these challenges through changes to the engine, transmission and vehicle control systems.
The new engine uses high strength materials, revised fuel delivery technology and improved combustion management. It works with the latest Optidriver gearbox, Optivision+ predictive cruise control and Predictive Engine Stop Start. Aerodynamic improvements complete the new powertrain package.
Together, these developments allow the vehicle to use fuel more efficiently while providing the power and control required for demanding applications.
Power and torque for demanding applications
The DE13 R is available with outputs up to 540 hp and maximum torque of 2,800 Nm. The leading toqrue performance is ideal for long haul, construction and heavy duty operations where pulling power and predictable response matter.
Greater control with Optibrake+
A more powerful Optibrake+ engine brake is fitted as standard. Effective engine braking can help drivers manage descents and reduce reliance on the service brakes. The improvement supports vehicle control and makes a more comfortable driving experience.
