FPT Industrial, the Most Complete Natural Gas Engines Line-Up on the Market for Industrial Applications
SUBSCRIBE TO RSS FEED
XMLA history full of successes and innovations started in 1997, when FPT Industrial presented its first two NG engines (respectively a 9.5 and a 2.8 liters of displacement). After this beginning, in 2004 FPT Industrial realized the first NG engine from the renowned NEF family, the N60 NG, capable nowadays of 204 hp of max power and 750 Nm of maximum torque.
The first NG product for Light Commercial Vehicles was produced in 2006: the F1C NG, which is nowadays the best-selling NG engine for commercial transport. It has been re-engineered in 2017 and now it is produced with characteristics of the original with the addition of a great technical innovation, the 8-speed automatic.
In 2016, FPT Industrial enlarged its line-up with the creation of the Cursor 9 Natural Gas. It was the first alternative-fuel specifically designed for industrial transportation. Finally, today, with the unveiling of Cursor 13 NG, the most powerful FPT Industrial NG engine, the Brand has now the most complete Natural Gas line-up for On-road applications in the market.
NEW CURSOR 13 NATURAL GAS
Leveraging FPT Industrial's cutting-edge technologies and reliability, proven by more than 30,000 NG engines sold worldwide in the last 20 years, the Cursor 13 NG delivers power up to 460 hp @ 1,900 rpm and torque up to 2,000 Nm @ 1,100 rpm, thus offering up to 15% more power and 18% more torque than FPT Industrial’s 9 liter NG engine. Cursor 13 NG is a mono-fuel 100% Natural Gas easy-to-use for end-users product, since it can run with CNG (Compressed Natural Gas), LNG (Liquefied Natural Gas) and bio-methane. The bio-methane solution is capable of reducing the CO₂ emission levels near to zero.

Compared to diesel version, Cursor 9 NG brings the CO2 emissions significantly down and can be close to zero by using bio-methane. To generate its power, the Cursor 9 NG uses stoichiometric combustion, a technology in which FPT Industrial has more than 20 years of experience. To comply with Euro VI the Cursor 9 NG does not need Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) or Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR), but relies on a simple three-way catalyst.
The Cursor 9 NG, which alongside the 7.8 liter Cursor 8 NG, still available on the market nowadays, boosts increased displacement, new multipoint fuel injectors and a new fuel rail to allow for a higher flow rate. This, together with the modified cylinder head -characterized by intake ports with an optimized swirl angle- grants class leading fuel consumption.
