The new engines have been designed to ensure high power output, compactness and low weight whilst being capable of achieving 20% more propulsive power than engines in the current 2000 series which they will gradually replace. They are fitted with several innovative technologies, including common rail, sequential turbocharging, and newly developed electronics. The new 10V 2000 Common Rail is capable of the same power output as the currently available 12V 2000 but its bulk volume is one third lower and it weighs 20% less. This allows for smaller engine compartments and correspondingly larger cabins while the lower weight has a positive influence on speed and handling. Cylinder count variants (8V, 10V, 12V and 16V engines) cover the power outputs 1,200, 1,500, 1,800 and 2,400 hp. The 10 cylinder 10V bridges the gap between 8V and 12V which was not available in the previous 2000 series.
