What is Mercedes-Benz BlueTEC®?
Diesel vehicles have been popular in Europe for quite some time, and are currently gaining popularity in the United States with the refinement and improvement of clean diesel technology. Choosing a new Mercedes-Benz BlueTEC® vehicle means enjoying the best of both worlds; you’ll reap the benefits of BlueTEC® clean diesel technology, as well as the top-notch features of a luxury car. Explore how BlueTEC® diesel systems work to reduce pollution-causing emissions!
How Does Mercedes-Benz BlueTEC® Work?
Hybrid vehicles are sought-after for their powerful performance and cost-cutting efficiency — and the same can be said for diesel. BlueTEC® diesel technology works to increase performance and mpg ratings, while also limiting harmful emissions. The characteristics of a BlueTEC® engine include:
- High-pressure fuel injection for the best possible performance
- Variable-vane turbocharger that results in a more powerful combustion
- AdBlue® liquid solution that’s injected into the exhaust and transforms harmful nitrogen oxide emissions to harmless nitrogen and oxygen
Why Choose Mercedes-Benz BlueTEC®?
What are the benefits of BlueTEC® diesel? For starters, Mercedes-Benz BlueTEC® vehicles earn fuel economy ratings that are approximately 6 to 8 miles per gallon higher on Scottsdale roads than their gas-powered counterparts. These clean diesel options allow you to enjoy the power associated with diesel engines without having a drastic impact on the environment. And with a wide variety of Mercedes-Benz BlueTEC® models from which to choose, you won’t have to forfeit your desire for a luxury vehicle. Whether you’re interested in a Sprinter BlueTEC® option, Mercedes-Benz Van, or a smaller vehicle like the E-Class, you’ll have access to BlueTEC®.
