The Detroit Diesel DD13 engine offers a horsepower range from 370 to 525, accommodating various applications and performance needs.
- 370-425 HP: Ideal for medium-duty and vocational applications, such as regional haul, construction, and municipal operations. These engines balance power and fuel efficiency, making them suitable for stop-and-go conditions and moderate loads.
- 450-525 HP: Designed for heavy-duty applications, including long-haul trucking and more demanding vocational tasks. The higher horsepower provides the necessary power for steep inclines and heavy loads.
The same engine code covers this range due to the DD13's modular design, which allows for different calibrations and configurations. Advanced features such as the Variable Geometry Turbocharger (VGT) and BlueTec® SCR emissions technology enable the engine to deliver varying power outputs while maintaining fuel efficiency and meeting emissions standards.
