FAW Jiefang has officially announced that its proprietary CA6DV1-E66C heavy-duty diesel engine has passed the European Euro VI e+ emission certification. This achievement marks the first time a domestic heavy-duty diesel engine has met these stringent EU standards, facilitating entry into the European high-end commercial vehicle market.
The Euro VI e+ regulation imposes rigorous requirements on real-world driving emissions, after-treatment durability, onboard diagnostic systems, and energy consumption monitoring. The CA6DV1 engine demonstrated emission levels for nitrogen oxides and particulate matter that significantly exceed the regulatory limits, providing a buffer for future emission standard updates.
The CA6DV1 platform is recognized for its high performance, featuring a mass-produced thermal efficiency of 49.2 percent and a maximum torque exceeding 3000 N·m. With this certification, the engine will serve as a key component for high-end export models, such as the J7, as they prepare for deployment in the European market.
