It represents a diesel engine technology utilized by the automotive manufacturer to reduce emissions. This system integrates several components, including particulate filters, oxidation catalysts, and selective catalytic reduction (SCR) to minimize the output of nitrogen oxides (NOx) and particulate matter. An example is its use in various passenger and commercial vehicles manufactured by the company, demonstrating a commitment to cleaner diesel technology.
The technology offers significant environmental advantages by lowering harmful pollutants released into the atmosphere, contributing to improved air quality and adherence to stringent emissions regulations. Its implementation reflects an effort to reconcile the fuel efficiency and power characteristics of diesel engines with growing environmental concerns. The introduction of this technology marked a significant step in the evolution of diesel vehicle engineering.
