Find a dealer E-Brochure Request a Brochure Home Sitemap Help D-CAT Diesel Clean Advanced Technology Together with the new Toyota Prius, Toyota's latest D-CAT (Diesel Clean Advanced Technology) confirms the manufacturer as the world leader in environmental development. Toyota D-CAT produces the lowest harmful emissions of any modern diesel, surpassing EURO IV standards: - NOx and particle emissions are 50% and 90% below EURO IV respectively - Diesel Particulate NOx Reduction System is a world first for Toyota - Second-generation common rail system uses highest injection pressure ever At the heart of the D-CAT system is DPNR (Diesel Particulate NOx Reduction System) and Toyota's own second-generation high-pressure common-rail diesel injection system. Fully integrated within these core technologies are various other control systems and devices which collectively combine to make it the most effective solution ever devised. Click the numbered key to learn more about D-CAT components: Performance in the real world In Avensis, engine output figures for the Toyota D-CAT unit are 116 DIN hp at 3,600rpm with 280Nm of torque at only 2,200rpm. This provides a top speed of 195 km/h and 0-100km/h acceleration in 11.2 seconds, equalling the conventional D-4D version. The Toyota D-CAT system alone resulted in no fewer than 1,622 new patents being granted to Toyota. In addition, 30 major components of the D-4D were upgraded or introduced.

Contact Toyota cars Engine Technology Safety Superior Quality Driver Satisfaction Car Customisation D-CAT Diesel Clean Advanced Technology is Toyota's innovative solution for reducing harmful exhaust emissions to levels far below the EURO IV standards. Using an Exhaust Port Injector (EPI) which injects fuel into the exhaust gas flow the DPNR catalyst effectively reduces both NOx and PM emissions. A high-efficiency Exhaust Gas Recirculation cooler (EGR) reduces the temperature of the exhaust gasses to increase their density and improve performance. The Diesel Particulate Filter catalyst purifies hydrocarbons and carbon monoxide but also simultaneously reduces particulate matter. The particulate matter is trapped in the filter’s substrate walls. The engine management system then burns off the soot so that the DPF is self-cleaning and requires no long-term maintenance. The D-4D 2.2-litre, Toyota D-CAT engine integrates special technologies to produce emissions far below the EURO IV standards: Find out more about D-CAT.

The D-CAT package includes the DPNR (Diesel PM and NO x Reduction) system, which is a combination of a diesel particulate filter with a NO x adsorber-catalyst. The launch of Avensis 2.0 D-CAT marks the first commercial introduction of this type of diesel emission control system. The D-CAT version will be initially available only in the UK and Germany, due to the availability of ultra low sulfur diesel fuel in those markets. Please log-in to view the full version of this article ( subscription required). When equipped with the D-CAT, the Toyota Avensis will be the cleanest diesel car in the world in regards to both NO x and PM emissions. With PM at 0.002 g/km and NO x at 0.12 g/km—90% and 50%, respectively, below the Euro 4 standard —the Avensis beats any other diesel car on the market, including those fitted with particulate filters, according to Toyota. For comparison, the D-CAT’s NO x emissions would place it in the US Tier 2 Bin 8, while the PM would be in Tier 2 Bin 1. This comparison has limited validity, as the test cycles in Europe and in the U.S. are different. Nevertheless, the Avensis D-CAT could be also perceived as an important step proving the technical viability of diesels in the future U.S. light-duty market. The Avensis 2.0 D-CAT is based on the 2.0 D-4D model, introduced in March 2003. To accommodate the D-CAT package, Toyota had to add or modify 30 major components in the D-4D engine, including the cylinder head, common rail system, exhaust manifold and turbocharger. The performance of both cars is the same, with 2 liter, 115 hp engine, 0-100 km/h in 11.2 seconds, and 180 km/h maximum speed. Both the D-4D and the D-CAT are also Euro 4 compliant (and so, at this time there is no additional tax benefit for purchasing the D-CAT version). The D-CAT package features close integration of the DPNR unit with the engine, through a number of major components and strategies (see the NO x Adsorbers paper for more details): The DPNR particulate filter/NO x adsorber-catalyst unit New common-rail fuel injection system Exhaust port fuel injection Low temperature combustion (LTC) Exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) Toyota Avensis is also available with a number of gasoline engines: 1.6-liter, 1.8-liter, 2.0-liter direct injection, and 2.4-liter direct injection with a 5-speed automatic transmission. Only the 2.0-liter direct injection gasoline version is available in Japan. The Avensis has been developed in Europe and is manufactured, including the Japanese market version, in Burnaston, UK. In parallel to the Avensis, Toyota will introduce the DPNR system on a light-duty Hino Dutro hybrid truck in the Japanese market. The launch of DPNR-equipped Dutro is also expected this Fall. Hino is a part of the Toyota group. Source: Toyota Home » What’s New » News Article Copyright © 1997 - 2010 Ecopoint Inc. Contact DieselNet XHTML | CSS || ||
