Turbo-Compounding
The 2019 Mack MP8 Engine is now available with turbo-compounding in order to maximize highway fuel efficiency.
Available exclusively with Mack’s Super Econodyne® downspeeding package, the MP8 with turbo compounding converts wasted energy from the exhaust into mechanical energy that is fed back to the engine. The system adds up to 50 additional horsepower, improving fuel efficiency by up to 8.8 percent. The additional power generated by the turbo compounding system allows the engine to maintain full torque as low as 900 rpm.
