* Japan - New Mitsubishi Fuso Canter offers greater payload and a more fuel efficient one-size-fits-all engine

Tokyo,Japan -Biglorryblog (UK) -July 11, 2009: ... Daimler boasts: "As such, the Canter is the first lorry in its weight class to champion compact engine design throughout the model range"... The new Euro-5 engines, which stretch from 130-175hp and 300-430Nm boast what Daimler calls: "A state-of-the-art design featuring a long stroke (bore x stroke 95.8 x 104 mm), overhead camshafts, four valves per cylinder, turbocharger with variable turbine geometry and common-rail injection"... It seems the engineers at Mitsubishi Fuso have tweaked the clutch, engine brake and cooling on the new models too. Consequently, tests in 'realistic conditions' have shown the new engines to be more fuel efficient to the tune of 5-8% "depending on the given driving conditions"... The two new lower powered bversions will be available from the summer while the highest-powered 175hp model comes in during February 2010.
