hello everyone i have been reading up on the specs of some new holland excavators, and i see that the E215c is a 6 cylinder engine 6.7 liter, but the E230 is a 4 cylinder engine 5.12 liters, and so is the E260 but then theres the E245 and that has a 6 cylinder 6.7 liter engine. I thought with higher numbers you would get a higher power output and bigger engine but it just seems like new holland just puts it any how. Can someone tell me the reason for this?
Check the horsepower ratings and at what rpm.... with the changes in emissions regs, sometimes a move to Tier4 requires a bigger engine to get the same power and still meet the regs. Years ago we had a Mitsubishi 280 with a rather large six cylinder, but it only turned 1,600 high idle. Ran forever and had torque up the yingyang.
ah i got what your saying and thanks that makes sense
