Performance in Action

This engine performs. Simple as that. Every Series 60 is built to give you what you need on the open road. Here's a few ways it does the job:

DDEC VI Electronic Controls

Advanced DDEC VI electronic controls effectively and automatically manage your coach. With comprehensive diagnostics and analytics, DDEC VI monitors and informs you of changes in your rig's operation so you can react. That means you have precise control over all the systems in your engine at all times.

Advanced Fuel System

The Series 60 brings improved injection quality for faster response time - and higher efficiency. The DDEC VI controlled high-pressure dual solenoid injectors provide perfect fuel control and fewer emissions.

The Series 60 Turbocharger

Engine performance starts with low-end throttle response. The new Series 60 uses an electronic variable geometry turborcharger that automatically - and precisely adjusts its boost across the opening range, delivering quick and punchy lift on the low end, where turbo lag would otherwise occur.

Cruise Power

The Series 60 has guts. Hills? No problem. Take advantage of more torque and performance in cruise control. With full rated torque and advanced DDEC VI controls, the Series 60 operates at peak efficiency no matter what the highway throws at you.

Power to Stop

Keeping a safe handle on downhill speeds is easy with a Detroit Diesel Series 60 engine. We install and recommend the original Jake Brake® compression brake for our heavy-duty engine—no other combination can provide you ultimate peace of mind, safety and performance on challenging mountain runs.

New In 2007

The new 2007 Series 60 puts several new key features under your hood, including an improved EGR cooler with a reliable tube-in-shell design for better operating efficiency. And the new DDEC VI electronic controls provide better complete engine management and diagnostic capabilities. Talk about innovative.
