The D16E580 is an engine with minimal emissions and noise. The engine’s Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) exhaust gas treatment makes it Euro 4 compliant. It is also possible to order the D16E580 with a Volvo engine brake (VEB +). This design increases safety and lessens wear on the service braking system by producing a very high braking force.

Engine Benefits
