Stralis Hi-Way and HI-eSCR TUV certifies a fuel consumption reduction of 2.33 per cent

TÜV, one of the leading independent European technical certification centres, has found that the Iveco Stralis Hi-Way  Euro  VI enables  a  reduction  in  fuel consumption of 2.33 per cent compared to the previous generation Euro V model. Key to achieving the savings was the  innovative  catalytic  reduction  system  (HI-eSCR) and the  enhanced aerodynamics  introduced  with  the  new Hi-Way cab.
 
The  result  translates  into  real  savings  for  the  customer  and confirms the latest Iveco Stralis as a product with high added value, featuring the most advanced technologies and making it a great solution for the transport industry.
 
Thanks  to  the  extreme  efficiency  of  both the engine  and  the HI-eSCR system, developed, patented and produced by FPT Industrial, the new Stralis range meets the limits demanded by the  new Euro  VI  legislation  without  using  EGR.  This enables it to offer  multiple  advantages  to  Iveco customers including weight reduction, lower fuel consumption and increased durability.
 
The tests carried out compared a new Stralis Hi-Way tractor unit equipped with a 460 hp Euro VI Cursor 11 engine with a similar Stralis vehicle from the previous generation, equipped with a 460 hp Euro V Cursor 10 engine. Both models were in EcoStralis configuration.
 
“Today's achievement,” said Lorenzo Sistino, Iveco Brand President, “is another important demonstration of the continued work by Iveco to reduce fuel consumption. This commitment has already  allowed  the  EcoStralis  Euro  V  model  to  obtain  TÜV  certification  with  a  reduction  in fuel consumption of 7.32 per cent compared to a standard Stralis from the same generation.”
