the german law was because they concluded that low power loaded trucks with low speed created more hazardous situations in the roads. So it was to improve safety

[@tobias_k01]

Steep inclines on some Autobahn sections are still an issue to this day, for example the A8 from the Karlsruhe triangle to Karlsbad. It is a very challenging uphill section, where you always see trucks going very slowly, some barely over 30 km/h or so. I can only imagine how hard it must have been back in the days with a fully loaded truck without a turbocharged engine. The biggest issue is when more powerful trucks then try to overtake, but they also struggle, and then basically block the road for cars.

[@bobhill3941]

​​@@tobias_k01Thank you to both of you, I always wondered about that law. My uncle who used to drive a truck here in Canada said the same thing as to why some drivers removed their speed governors. When my grandad was in Germany as occupational forces with the British REME in 1953-56. He drove a Scammell recovery truck. He said, with a tank on the trailer and a tail wind, it only got up to 37kp/h

I was lucky enough to drive a number of preproduction tour buses (coaches) in 1995 and 1996 (partly because of my mechanical engineering background) and working for a large tour company that had over 150 tour buses in their fleet. M.A.N, Volvo and a Scania etc. The brands we offering more horsepower when the coach company was asking for more fuel efficiency and not more horsepower! One of the preproduction coaches had so much horsepower I could overtake cars with a full load of passengers up the Italian Dolomites but it would overheat all the time and I needed to back off to allow it to cool down. The eventual fix was to back off the horsepower from 480+ horsepower to 420 horsepower because there was no room to fit a bigger radiator! Also got to see despite not supposed to be looking at! a few prototypes of new vehicles coming out that because I have not seen them in production that were probably scrapped. I can’t say the manufacturer as I was sworn to secrecy and not allowed to take photos. Lucky experience at the time, and ironically I got told off years later for driving one of the first of a new model in the country where I now live because I had not been trained to drive them. Not knowing that I had driven the preproduction version of the same vehicle!

[@brianb-p6586]

There is a minimum power to weight requirement in the province of British Columbia, Canada, too... _Commercial Transport Procedures Manual_ _Chapter 5.0 Specialized Vehicle Size and Weight Guidelines and Permits_ _Section 5.3.6.C. Equipment Requirements_ "i) Truck Tractor: ... c) All truck tractors must feature a maximum gross weight to power ratio of 150 kg per one horsepower." That's a minimum of 6.7 horsepower or 5 kW per tonne (1,000 kg), or 6.1 horsepower or 4.5 kW per ton (2,000 lb). This type of limit is used to keep underpowered trucks from excessively holding up traffic, particularly on uphill highway grades. In the current market this is no longer a concern, as truck owners choose far more power anyway. In Canada a basic tandem-drive tractor and tandem-axle trailer is allowed to weigh up to 39,500 kg; the BC rule would require only 263 horsepower or 196 kW, and no one even sells a Class 8 highway tractor with that little power.

At some point in the 1960's, Mercedes and MAN agreed on developing future engine concepts like the following: MAN focusses in inline engines, Mercedes in V-Shape-Engines. MAN 16.256 and 16.320 had V8 and V10 engine blocks supplied by Mercedes, but using a different combustion method (M-Verfahren). Output was 20 mhp per liter here and there. In 1969, Mercedes introduced a new line of engines called the 400 series, ranging from V6 to V20. First trucks were LP series 1626/1632 to 2226/2232, introducing a new tilting cab for LP trucks with V8 or V10 engine. In 1973, NG series was introduced, V6 engines became available, and when Italy 1976 allowed 44 ton GCW mandating 8 PS/ton, even V12 found their way in NG trucks to deliver in excess of 352 PS needed. In 1979, NG 80 trucks were introduced, first turbocharged V8 (1633/2233) and intercooled (1638/2238) NG trucks were available. And to answer the title: In 1983, Mercedes introduced two heavy-duty tractors called 3250 AS/6x6 and 3850 AS/6x6, capable of 250 tons GCW! And these trucks were the first to implement twin-turbo, intercooled V10 engines of 18.3 liter and 500 PS! So that is where this story began, and in 1986, MAN introduced new F90 series, with 19.362 being top of the line. About one year later, new 19.462 was introduced, intercooled V10 twin turbo with 460 PS, 40 less than the quite similar Mercedes engine, and following customer demand, around 1989 the 19.502 was succeeding the 462, available in €1 emissions, later 603 even €2 emissions -

The V-banked engine has the perfect low rev capability. In Indonesia, where I live, inline-6 diesel truck (whether it has been turbocharged and intercooled or it is still a naturally aspirated), suffer from low end revving. The V8s and also the V10s (built by Japanese marques and some European marques) although the displacement is bigger and have the same power as the inline-6s, they are not suffering low revving at all. The amazing thing is that the gearbox are also the same variant with the inline-6s. Yes it steal fuel but the power of V engines are unmatched by the inline-6s with turbos and superb injection system.

one day, MAN bought Büssing, you can still see their cap designe to the present days...also to fit the engine into the frame of the truck... they still cherish Büssing, they show the Braunschweiger Löwe/Lion as a hood ornament!

You forgot the 660hp V10 engine from the MAN TGA Heavy truck series in 2002. It was the last V10, later only V8 with 680 hp and then R6 with 640 hp.

[@VisioRacer]

I did mention the 660hp version

Ak sa nemcom fakt nieco nedari,tak je to vyrobit dobry kamion. Netvrdim,ze je to uplne zalostne ale kto s tym jazdil,tak vie o com hovorim. Mercedes nevie tahat,nevie radit,nevie sediet na ceste. MAN ani nejdem komentovat,ten vie byt iba cenovo vyhodny. Mozu do toho namontovat aj tisic valec ale stejne nakoniec pridu svedi,ktory tam daju jednoduchu radovu sestku a natrhnu obom prdel na uplne vsetkych frontoch,a to nehovorim len o motoroch.Proste vsade ich nechaju mile za sebou.A ak nahodou nasnezi,tak sa uz nebavime o milach ale o svetelnych rokoch ✌️

Did the job on those engines never had any problems with them but there was one truck with a V12 engine in Croatia a Mercedes Benz 1735 it was fited with a standard V8 but the owner found a V12 an we instaled it it was brutal 850 HP it was a engine for a river ship! The truck drove til 1999 and it was chrased into a bridge the driver had a hart attack and was deda on the spot

thank the Lord for Euro 6 adblue engines , remember the days of all the black smoke from trucks and buses, I worked in a bus depot in the 70s and 80s after all the buses had started up in the morning you couldn't see anything for half an hour 🤣

[@VisioRacer]

I thought a DPF is the filter preventing the black smoke

I guess tractor pulling is an international motorsport and not mearly an American one. Watching these European trucks pulling those sleds(?) is something I didn't expect to see.

[@andyharman3022]

There is a lot of tractor pulling in Europe. The Dutch are very good at it.

2:50 don’t you mean, “…from a 5 cylinder…”???

[@VisioRacer]

Yeah. I found out about the five-cylinder later during the production

[@firdaustalukder3328]

Man only if M.A.N did another v10 turbo for the new trucks

[@ShainAndrews]

Took a lot of technology, and displacement for all V configurations to remain relevant compared to the inline six.

What is a 'Visio'?

I drove MAN 19.502 as a 21 years old..i remember high fuel consumption,old school power,and that lovely whistle when shifting gears. Mk2 MAN was great machine.

Crazy you can just drive to the dealer and buy a 400HP 1000Lb/ft truck right now if you wanted to

The only thing better than a v10 is a v12.

[@markdubois4882]

@@VisioRacer A friend of mine in my hometown in northern Ontario, Canada inherited his dad's 1975 Peterbilt 359 Long Nose which came with the 12V71N. He rebuilt the "Buzzin Dozen" (yes, the 12 in 12V71 means 12-cylinder.....V means V-configuration.....71 means 71 cubic inches (1.18L) per cylinder). He also turboed it (twin turbo) to the tune of only 14 psi (just under 1 bar) of boost and added bigger injectors (no injector pump in a 2-stroke Detroit). It now produces 930 HP and 2440 lb.ft (3400 n.m) of torque. If you really want to compare apples to apples instead of oranges, let's make it a flat level playing field. Take the turbos off the 4-stroke engines, and then and only then compare the 4-strokes to the "Screamin' Jimmys" (2-stroke Detroit). Most of the 4-strokes here in North America run 30 psi (just over 2 bar) of boost.

[@user-gn8hf2ig7w]

@@markdubois4882 well why arent the 2 strokes running 30psi? comparing 4 to 2 stroke will never be apples to apples. There are amazing 2 and 4 stroke engines. There is no doubt rhat 2 strokes can make amazing power, but look at the specific fuel consumption and you will realize why 4 strokes became the norm.

I see truckpulling in your video, but in tractorpulling Dingo uses also this engine, put it to the limit. The sound on diesel was amazing. kzbin.info/www/bejne/hqbYd2iloduKac0si=7ZP4Ja1RDnkbaDxk now it runs on methanol , sound is weaker, but makes a estimate of 5000hp! at this moment.

@@allanwico6314 The problem is america wants everyone to drive the 70mph that 110 psi heavy vehicle tires are rated for.They don't want 20 year olds driving bmws or challengers down the highway at 120mph through light traffic on a nice day. in fact, theyll completely castrate them for having the balls to do it in the first place.

The Scania V8 is a Volkswagen engine. I drove MAN, Scania, Mercedes and Volvo for 26 years on International work. The MAN was by far the best

[@rickardwaara2130]

Pretty sure that VW have not done much more then just owning Scania, if so that does not make the V8 any less Swedish then so.

[@teeteetuu94]

Scania V8 first released in 1969. Pretty sure they weren't owned by VW back then.

[@svenskenh644]

The V8 from Scania is NOT a VW engine! Other way around: Scania is teaching MAN and VW how to build excellent engines and transmissions

[@leuvenlife]

No, they weren't owned by VW back then, they were even the importer of VW into sweden, But, VW have been making their engines for them.@@teeteetuu94

[@ontheroadagain4773]

The 14 litre V8 engine DS14 Scania introduced in 1968 is a completely different engine than the 16 litre V8 that was introduced in the 164 model around 20 years ago. I think the DS14 was developed in collaboration with Mack

The V10 wasn´t origin from Mercedes. It was an MAN Engine. Mercedes an MAN had al long partnership by engines, because MAN had the Diesel competence,
