Product catalog summary
Overview
Detroit® offers an integrated powertrain system that enhances fuel efficiency by combining engines, transmissions, and axles. This system is designed to work with the aerodynamic features of Freightliner® Cascadia® and Western Star® 57X trucks to achieve superior fuel economy.
Engine Specifications
The DD15 Gen 5 and DD13 Gen 5 engines provide power outputs of up to 455 HP and 450 HP respectively, with torque reaching 1750 LB-FT. These engines are compliant with 2021 Greenhouse Gas requirements and are optimized for lower RPMs to improve fuel economy and reduce friction.
Transmission Details
The DT12® transmission offers both Direct Drive and Over Drive options with various gear ratios. It features Intelligent Powertrain Management, which uses terrain maps to optimize transmission and engine functions, enhancing fuel efficiency and performance.
Drive Axles
Detroit® drive axles are available in 6x4, 6x2, and 4x2 configurations with different rear axle ratios. The Axle Lubrication Management system improves fuel efficiency by optimizing oil flow and reducing friction.
Steer Axles
Detroit® steer axles are available in 12,000 lbs, 12,500 lbs, and 13,300 lbs ratings. They are designed for durability and optimal performance with other powertrain components.
Key Features
The integrated powertrain system includes features like superfinished gears for reduced parasitic losses, electronically enhanced eCoast for additional fuel savings, and an integrated communication network for damage prevention.

DD15® GEN 5 AND DD13® GEN 5 ENGINE We all know slowing down is the best way to save fuel, so we’ve designed an engine that can cruise at the same road speed at lower RPMs, reducing fuel consumption and friction. This is made possible by integrating our fastest-ever tandem axle and made easy with our smooth-shifting DT12, making the Cascadia and 57X even more fuel efficient. • Dropping engine speed reduces the number of fuel injections, dramatically improving fuel economy • Integrated with DT12® automated manual transmission and fast axle ratio, this engine torque curve keeps you in top gear longer...
