Lightbulb Freightliner Engine specs from site.

Plenty of power just when you need it most: for hill starts and overtaking on the freeway - even when fully loaded.


The CDI engine is not only powerful but also designed for both ease of maintenance and long service intervals, it offers a unique level of efficiency thanks to more exact control of fuel metering, greater ignition precision and almost constant injection pressure. All of which give it a clear advantage over conventional gasoline engines.

Unique performance:
154 hp at 3,800 rpm
Average fuel consumption of 22 miles per gallon (city/freeway)
Maintenance intervals of 10,000 miles
Exhaust-driven turbocharger with variable turbine geometry (VTG)
Exceptionally smooth running despite diesel technology
Extremely long service life

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Engine: MBE 600 2.7 liter turbocharged 5-cylinder diesel
Horsepower: 154 @ 3,800 rpm
Torque: 243 lb-ft. @ 1,600 - 2,400 rpm
Fuel system: Standard height: 93" / high roof: 102"
Transmission: Mercedes-Benz 5-speed automatic w/overdrive
Fuel tank: 25 gallons
Camshafts: 2 (ohc)
Maximum speed: 86 mph

From Freightliner site: Note it pushes the big box well and with great mpg.
