INTERNATIONAL PROSTAR+ WITH MAXXFORCE ADVANCED EGR BEATS THE COMPETITION ® ® ® INDEPENDENT TESTS PROVE NEARLY 1% TO 2.5% ADVANTAGE IN FLUID ECONOMY Until just recently, any comparison of Class 8 trucks began with fuel economy. And in those comparisons, the International ProStar® best-in-class. was But today, with different trucks offering different solutions to 2010 emissions, fuel economy doesn’t tell the whole story. After all, the competitors’ trucks are offering a liquid urea SCR solution. And like diesel fuel, liquid urea costs money. That’s why the new standard of comparison for Class 8 trucks should begin with fl uid economy. Put simply, fl uid economy is a measurement of diesel fuel plus liquid urea consumed. INDEPENDENT TMC TYPE IV FLUID ECONOMY TESTING* To help customers make informed decisions about which truck engine combination is right for them, International commissioned a head- to-head fluid economy comparison of three leading EPA2010 compliant trucks: ProStar+ with MaxxForce Advanced EGR vs. Freightliner Cascadia and Kenworth T660, both with liquid urea SCR. PROSTAR+ CONTINUES TO LEAD THE WAY The results were clear and conclusive. In the comparison of fl uid economy, the International ProStar+ with MaxxForce Advanced EGR consistently outperformed the competing trucks nearly 1% to 2.5%. Which begs the question: if liquid urea SCR trucks can’t compete on fl uid economy, why deal with the hassle of adding and maintaining after-treatment equipment, fi lling up with liquid urea, and retraining technicians? IT ALL ADDS UP TO PROSTAR+ When you add up the advantages and consider the hassles of SCR, the answer is resoundingly clear: ProStar+ with MaxxForce Advanced EGR is the only 2010 emissions compliant truck built to go the distance and keep your business operating at its best.
