I'm cautiously optimistic that these engines are going to be legendary. No EGR is huge advanage, same with fixed geometry turbo. Much simpler means less stuff to break. VW brings a lot of good engineering to the truck.
If the pistons were designed by Speed Of Air Engine Technologies I bet the EGTs would be even lower, and the use of DEF would be still much lower than the A26 or any other current engine.
We shall see what the real world results are. Funny how engineers and salesmen live on a test track then cannot understand why actual highway miles are often different to their expectations. But, it I'm not mistaken we shall see how the Europen designed power train works in the US.
@TellurideS13 Would like to see that information. OTR with factory driver in never in any way real world. In a fleet with an experienced driver under load and time constraints over a month or two, that real world. Been there done that, know the difference between fingerer BS and fresh off the line, PDI, into the hands of a real driver.
Should work pretty well, cosidering that the beating these engines take in the nordic countries is more than they will ever see in the USA outside of special heavy transport. And they are reliable, Can't say how long they last before needing a rebuild since I have not seen a DC13 Super engine in a Scania with 800K miles yet. ALso I do love how the guy says (We designed/did) when the engine is literally just a Scania Super engine...like literally you look closely at the parts of the engine and everything has a Scania stamp on it.
I'm currently training in a new Peterbilt, but I'm disappointed to find that it's developing a loud rattle (starting at around 8,500 miles). The noise is unbearable. In comparison, I've found that the International truck has a much better steering radius.
I seen jb hunt drivers in the new lt with the s13. I want to ask them how are they holding up and what's the mpg.
Excited by the powertrain...now upgrade the cab please...still has horrible rattles!
New cab is coming. Very soon
Brand new truck rattling like a mf

The S13 is a Scania engine
It does have EGR.

Are you sure! Internationals homepage says no egr meant their technicians had to find another way to treat nox.
Scnia engineering actually

Vw is the owner of Scania but the good engineering is Scania
Clean your windows so you can see!!! 😀

I just bought a LT625 with the A26,also test drove one with X15 and on both the hood makes the same annoying squeaking noise
New international. Still has rattles. 😢 lip stick on a pig. 😊

It's been tested on the highway way before it was introduced

Scnia is used all over the world i dont see why it would not work in the us even in australia southamerica africa and the europe

I had a brand new International and still rattled only at the beginning…once I broke the truck in it disappeared.
I’d like to know why this same engine makes over 100 more horsepower in a Scania
Your engineers???it's Scania motor,in use for a while in Europe 😂😂😂
Bet it still leaks water.

More miles on engine and it will has less compression, so that could be a big problem since this engine needs high compression to work properly
