Freightliner Trucks has announced the availability of the 2004 Mercedes-Benz MBE926 7.2-liter engine for the Freightliner Trucks medium-duty Business Class M2 line of vehicles.

Availability of the MBE926 diesel engine began in mid-June.
Mark Lampert, senior vice president of sales and marketing for Freightliner Trucks, said, "This engine rounds out the availability of the highly-successful Mercedes-Benz MBE900 series of engines for Freightliner Trucks."
Freightliner Trucks introduced the MBE900 series engines to the market in late 1999 for use in its Business Class M2 product line. The engines are ideal for use in medium-duty applications including distribution, food and beverage delivery, towing, utilities and fire and emergency service.
The six-cylinder MBE926 offers horsepower ratings from 250 to 330 and torque range from 800 to 1,000 lb.-ft. The 7.2-liter engine delivers high torque at a low rpm, increasing performance with smoother shifts, better driveability and increased capacity for climbing hills and negotiating stop-and-go traffic.
The 7.2-liter MBE926 offers an exhaust brake that provides more braking horsepower for improved vehicle control and less service brake wear. The brake is quiet, producing less noise in city operations.
The MBE900 series engines use an Exhaust Gas Recirculation system (EGR), which adheres to all applicable 2004 EPA emission regulations. The MBE900 engines also feature sophisticated electronic control systems including full diagnostics for ease of maintenance, fully electronic engine management systems and Detroit Diesel Diagnostic Link software for periodic reporting and comprehensive views of vehicle operation.
The MBE900 engines are backed by a base three-year, 150,000-mile warranty for on-highway applications.
Freightliner Trucks is a division of Freightliner LLC, headquartered in Portland, Ore. Freightliner Trucks produces and markets Class 5-8 trucks and is a company of DaimlerChrysler.
