The new Deutz TCD 9.0 four-cylinder in-line engine, generating 300 kW and 1,700 Nm of torque, aims to form part of a new family of engines. Together with the TCD 12.0 and the TCD 13.5 six-cylinder in-line engines, it further extends the upper end of the Deutz power range.
Many of these trucks provide less power and are commonly used for daily commuting and not as a work horse.

4. Having a smooth initial throttle application is crucial off-road, and the various riding modes don’t disappoint, especially with a torque-rich engine such as this one. Rolling the throttle on won’t be met with disaster, as riders will quickly come to terms with the 1200—they’ll be reveling in it with roosts of approval.
By acquiring Torqueedo, a manufacturer of electric drive marine motors, Deutz was able to cut five years out of the technology development needed to electrify their diesel engine powertrains.
There were moments during MXA’s several-month-long 450 shootout period when the 2019 Kawasaki was the front runner for first place. It is by far the most improved bike of 2019. Every test rider enjoyed the deceivingly fast engine, light-feeling chassis, clean ergos and nice design touches, but, and this is a big but, it is a “first-year model.” First-year models always have teething problems, and the more we raced the 2019 KX450, the more the problems came to the surface. Those problems began to sap our enthusiasm for the Kawasaki KX450. Even though we still liked it, we liked it less and less when the clutch kept burning through plates (hydraulic or not), the over-size rear brake locked up at the least opportune times, the forks bottomed because of the soft fork springs, the bottom chain roller self-destructed, and we realized the airbox design was convoluted. There is one caveat to all of this. If you feel that you can live with the flaws, chase down solutions and stay on top of the maintenance, then go for it. It is the lightest of the Japanese-built bikes.
The phrase “not that expensive to incorporate” assumes your price elasticity of demand is a bellwether for everyone in the autoblogosphere. Good luck with that, son!Â
Another minor annoyance is that wide-open-throttle (WOT) up-shift is mainly determined by the governor that is driven off the transmission’s output shaft. Most rebuilt 700R4’s will use very heavy weights and light springs on the governor that will signal the transmission to up-shift at very low engine speeds. Of course, you can manually shift the transmission at any RPM you desire, but if you want to adjust the automatic WOT up-shifts, this can only be done by modifying the governor.
The new engines are equipped with technologies including crossflow cylinder heads, a downspeeding function for reducing fuel consumption and working noise levels plus a common rail system operating at an injection pressure of 2,200 bar. “Up to 100 per cent power take-off is possible both at the belt and the flywheel side,” said the company.
(One wonders if the carbon-fiber cargo bed is also a test bed for larger production goals—as another journalist pointed out to me, Ford quietly made the hood of the F-150 from aluminum for years before copping to it, at which point they had just rolled out an entire truck made out of the stuff; whether CarbonPro presages a full carbon-fiber-framed truck—somehow, some way—is an interesting question.)

Another nice thing about the service records is that I can see if the vehicle has been in an accident. In addition to the recent one that put a big dent in my fender, the Jeep was apparently involved in a crash in 2006, as well:
