Delphi's Revolutionary Direct Acting Diesel Fuel Injection System Making World Premiere on New Merce

Delphi Corporation has announced that, following several years of development in cooperation with Daimler engineering teams, the new Mercedes C250 CDI will premiere Delphi's revolutionary Direct Acting Piezo injector.

The new Direct Acting Common Rail (CR) from Delphi represents a radical break-through in diesel injection technology as, for the first time, the injector needle is directly activated by the piezo stack, removing the hydraulic circuit and its associated lag and energy consumption. This change enables vehicle manufacturers to comply with future emission legislations while providing more power and uncompromised fuel economy.
