In order to optimize your operations, it’s important to understand the difference between fuel economy and fluid economy. Fuel economy is your cost per mile of diesel fuel, while fluid economy is your cost per mile of diesel fuel plus liquid urea (an additional fluid required by trucks with an SCR emissions solution). The good news is ProStar+ with MaxxForce 13 features Advanced EGR, the only emissions solution that doesn’t require liquid urea.
It also features best in class aerodynamics. And as a result, ProStar+ gets up to 1% better fluid economy than Freightliner Cascadia and up to 2.5% better fluid economy than Kenworth T660 .
