A hybrid powertrain offers the potential of a significant fuel saving for heavy-duty Diesel vehicles, which results in CO2 reduction of more than 20%, depending on the application. Using advanced future fuels, like HVO offers additional CO2 saving potential. In addition, the future Diesel engine needs to comply with the next generation of emission legislation, given by the European EUVII and the US EPA2027 regulatory frameworks. To achieve these limits, a combination of different technologies for the engine and the aftertreatment system are required. The proposed paper will present these technology solutions and their impact on CO2 and emissions by means of engine testing and simulation.
