As emissions legislation tightens, the demand for cleaner, more economical diesel engines intensifies. Next-generation diesel engines need to offer improved fuel economy, lower emissions, and lower noise levels than previous engines. To meet these demands, Delphi developed new, high-pressure fuel injection systems including Delphi's highly advanced E3 diesel injector and Delphi's diesel common rail system.

"Fuel injection equipment with the capability of operating at very high pressures will be required to achieve the ultra-low emissions challenges and low noise demands of the coming years," said Mike Rayne, director, Delphi Diesel North America. "Delphi's service infrastructure and diagnostic equipment will ensure that these systems provide reliable performance through the life of the vehicle."

Other retail products on display include the Delphi XM SKYFi(TM) satellite radio -- the latest consumer electronics offering from Delphi Product & Service Solutions. The SKYFi commercial package will be available for sale at participating retail locations such as PANA-PACIFIC, Travel Centers of America, Louisville Peterbilt and Sioux City Kenworth.
