On the afternoon of November 20, 2022, Weichai released the world’s first commercial diesel engine with a body thermal efficiency of 52.28% and natural gas engine of 54.16%.

On the basis of the diesel engine thermal efficiency breaking 50.23% in 2020 and 51.09% in January this year, Weichai has once again set a new global record of 52.28%, reaching the top of the world industry for three consecutive times.

At the same time, the thermal efficiency of the natural gas engine body broke 54.16% for the first time in the world, which is a revolutionary subversion of the internal combustion engine industry. The thermal efficiency of natural gas engines surpassed that of diesel engines for the first time, becoming the most efficient thermal machinery.
