Toyota 2.8L Turbo Diesel Engine

Toyota's newly developed direct-injection turbo diesel engines raise the bar with the world's very first use of Thermo Swing Wall Insulation Technology (TSWIN) making the all-new 175 hp and 332 lb-ft of torque 2.8L one of the most thermally efficient in existence. Up to 44 percent according to Toyota. Despite smaller engine displacement than to the current KD engine, maximum torque is improved by 25 percent and low speed torque improved by 11 percent, while fuel efficiency has received a 15 percent boost. The engines also have Toyota's first-ever urea Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) system. The newly developed 2.8L is currently available in the new Hilux small pickup truck launched in Thailand in May 2015, and in the partially redesigned Land Cruiser Prado launched in Japan on June 17.
