One and done.

 

The dynamic 2600 Series delivers power density and performance in a uniquely compact package – providing an impressive 40 kW/L (53.5 hp/L) at 0.45 kW/kg (0.27 hp/lb). That makes it an ideal choice for a broad range of off-highway applications, from agricultural machinery like tractors and harvesters, to construction equipment such as excavators and dozers, to material handling equipment as well as industrial pumps and compressors. The 2600 Series is built and tested to power more of the equipment that moves the world forward.

Big power starts with big ideas

Class-leading performance

The 2600 Series is a 13-litre powerhouse that maximises every inch of build quality to produce up to 515 kW (690 hp). Its power comes in 20% lighter and 2-3 dB quieter than the larger 15- and single turbo 18-litre engines it’s built to replace. More of what you need. Less of what you don’t.
