Detroit Diesel is an American manufacturer of automotive, stationary and industrial diesel engines, bridges and gearboxes. Since its founding in 1938, Detroit Diesel has produced more than 5 million units, of which at least 1 million is still in operation.

The company was born as a division of General Motors, focused exclusively on the development of diesel equipment. In 1965, Detroit Diesel went into “free swimming”, and in 1970 entered a new stage of development, merging with the developer of gas turbines Allison Division. In 1987, the company revolutionized the market by launching a series of power units with electronic control system (DDEC). The innovation allowed to reduce the consumption of oil and fuel, and automate the work of engines.

Detroit Diesel works closely with the German developer Bosch – together with it the company has released a series of engines with the technology of supply and injection of common rail fuel. The brand also has its own novelties: a water pump with electronic control, generators with water cooling (one hinged, the other – built into the cylinder block).

Today, Detroit Diesel is part of the Daimler AG concern and is focused on the production of diesel units for heavy trucks, buses, construction equipment. Some series (for example, S50, S149) are no longer produced, but the company continues their service. The most popular among the manufacturers of equipment are the following product lines:

S60 – started in 1987, the power range of 400-600 hp, the working volume of 12700-14000 cm³.
S40E – production began in 1991th. The series immediately received electronic control and is characterized by economy and low level of vibration. The maximum power is 175-250 hp, the working volume is 7600 cm³.
S4000 – the most powerful series, developed in conjunction with specialists MTU. The power range is 951-5846 hp.

Detroit Diesel closely cooperates with manufacturers of Volvo Penta, Daimler Chrysler, Koler, and invests huge funds in researching new technologies. For this purpose, the company has about 200 dynamometer stands in Europe and the USA. Priority of the brand has not changed since 2000 – these are engines for heavy trucks. In this segment, Detroit Diesel achieved phenomenal success.
