Fueled 100% by CNG, LNG or biomethane
Stoichiometric combustion to guarantee the reduction of consumption and noise compared to diesel
Up to 20% (€/km)* more fuel savings than diesel
*fuel price: Diesel 1,75€/lt, Methane 1,65€/kg
CURSOR 13 NG represents the best low environmental impact alternative for long-range operations since it was developed to meet the high requirements in terms of performance and operating costs, but without compromising its resistance.
Natural gas is the most eco-friendly fuel for internal combustion engines, capable of bringing significant environmental advantages:
it improves local air quality nearly eliminating polluting agents,
it mitigates global warming by considerably reducing CO2 emissions,
it significantly reduces engine noise.
Based on cutting-edge technologies and more than 20 years of experience with natural gas engines, the C13 NG provides maximum power of 460 HP @ 1600 rpm and maximum torque of 2000 Nm @ 1100 rpm; offering 35% more power and 25% more torque than the best competitors with the same technology.
Since 1995, the company began adopting this technology which then proved to be the only viable and convenient solution available to comply with the Euro VI Step E emissions limits.
Stoichiometric combustion actually allows the C13 NG engine to comply with Euro VI Step E standards using a simple three-way catalyzer without EGR that is easy to install. This engine's CO2 emission rate is significantly lower than diesel and it can almost reach zero using biomethane. Furthermore, CNG engines lower noise pollution thanks to a more fluid and quieter combustion cycle (Otto cycle) than diesel engines.
