With the latest EU regulations taking effect regarding emissions from diesel forklift trucks, Doosan have taken the lead developing a new diesel engine named the G2 which as won the FLTA innovation award for 2014.

The G2 uses an innovative new combustion system to comply with the latest emissions legislation, while completely removing the need for a diesel particulate filter (DPF). The resulting clean-burn engine, fitted to Doosan’s 2.0t to 3.5t forklift models, powers the EU’s first Euro IV-compliant trucks.

Additionally, the G2’s advanced fuel injection system improves fuel efficiency by 33%, reduces vibration by 33% and noise levels by 10%.
