As a result of the transaction, Deutz will take over the distribution of the mtu Classic series in the lower power range and the mtu engine series 1000 to 1500, which are based on three Daimler Truck engine platforms. These engines are in the 5 to 16 litre displacement class with an output of up to 480 kW and used in a variety of off-highway applications, primarily agriculture and construction.
Power Systems will continue to use engines based on Daimler Truck technology to power railway and military land vehicles, as well as for power generation. The servicing activity related to engines already in use is also part of the sale and, following a transition phase, is expected to be covered exclusively by Deutz-authorised partners from 1 January 2025.
