General Motors Corp. said it would introduce a new V-8 turbo charged diesel engine as early as the 2010 model year that would improve the fuel efficiency of its light-duty pickup trucks in the U.S. by 25%.
The diesel will be able to meet stringent California emissions standards， enabling GM to sell diesel-equipped light-duty trucks — and sport utility ve
hicles， if desired — in all 50 states.
美通用汽車表示，公司最早將在2010年推出使用八缸渦輪增壓柴油發(fā)動機，這種發(fā)動機將使公司輕型皮卡車的節(jié)油效率提高25%。
柴油發(fā)動機能夠滿足加州嚴(yán)格的廢氣排放標(biāo)準(zhǔn)，使通用能在將近50個州銷售安裝該種柴油發(fā)動機的輕型皮卡車和SUV。
