Jacobs Vehicle Systems captured Engine Technology of the Year honors at the recent Diesel Progress Summit Awards ceremony hosted by Diesel Progress magazine and the KHL publishing group. Jacobs was recognized for its High Power Density^® (HPD^®) technology, which provides industry leading engine brake power.

"Fleets everywhere are continuing to explore a seemingly endless list of new and creative options for improving fuel economy, reducing emissions, and advancing sustainability solutions. It’s now more the norm than the exception. 

"Among their efforts are shifting to alternative fuel sources, or for the traditional diesel-powered vehicles, moving to downspeeding the engine, downsizing the engine, adding aerodynamic devices, and spec’ing low rolling resistance tires and other fuel-saving systems.

Two of Jacobs technologies - Fulcrum Bridge and High Power Density^® Engine Brake - have been selected as finalists for this year's Engine Technology of the Year for the Diesel Progress Awards.  Thank you to Diesel Progress and this years judges for recognizing Jacobs.

Jacobs Vehicle Systems will showcase its latest portfolio of engine retarding and valve actuation technologies at IAA Transportation in Hanover, Germany, Sept. 20-25, 2022, Hall 22, Booth C11. The focus will be on cylinder deactivation technology and Jacobs modular valvetrain concepts.
