Perform When It Counts.

The DD5 is the most technologically advanced mid-range engine available in its market. Its features include:

  • Proprietary variable cam-phasing technology optimizes aftertreatment system performance by maintaining ideal temperatures during low-speed operation. This reduces or eliminates the need for parked regens, keeping you on the road longer and boosting overall efficiency.
  • The DD5™ also has a smart, fuel-efficient design that makes the most of every gallon and lightens the load on the aftertreatment system. 
  • Its advanced common rail fuel system optimizes each injection event to minimize fuel consumption. 
  • A variable-speed fan and advanced cooling system providing shorter fan-on times for increased fuel efficiency.
  • Simple, fixed-geometry, dual-stage turbo for performance, efficiency and reliability.
  • An optional high-performance integrated engine brake.
  • A B10 life of 400,000 miles.
  • A robust rear gear train.
  • The Detroit Connect Virtual Technician® remote diagnostic system to maximize uptime.
  • Detroit provides a wide range of new vehicle engines compliant with EPA, CARB emissions, GHG, and OBD requirements. Please consult your local dealer to ensure the selection of a product that meets your specific needs.
