Both the Evo trucks are powered by MAN D-0836 engine – a 6.9 litre 6-cylinder in-line, turbocharged and intercooled diesel unit. Paired to a 9-speed gearbox, the engine generates range-topping 300 hp of power. MAN claims that the common-rail technology coupled with turbo makes the engine fuel efficient, environment friendly and most reliable.
