Challenging emissions and fuel consumption legislations across the globe drive continuous evolution of VNTTM turbocharger technologies. In the light duty (100 kW – 140 kW engines) commercial vehicles segment, this challenge is further complicated by high cost-sensitivity and unique packaging constraints. Moreover, due to engine down-sizing, light duty commercial vehicle powertrains need to expand their range to cover a portion of medium duty vehicle applications as well.

CO2 targets and anticipation of Eu7 Legislation are accelerating the widespread adoption of VNT turbochargers for Gasoline engines. The industry best BSFC of 222 g/kWh was set when the 1,5L EA211 Miller engine with a Garrett GT12V was launched at the Vienna Motor Symposium in 2017 [1,2]. Since this time engine ratings and VNT product ranges have been expanded and it is now expected that we will see new releases from several OEMs in multiple applications from 2020 onwards.
The growing trends toward hybridization open up possibilities to transfer electric boosting technology from racetrack to road. Garrett is pioneering E-Turbo technology to deliver superior performance, fuel economy and emissions, by integrating state-of-the-art, ultra-high-speed electric motors and power electronics into its turbocharger product families.
Our compressor aerodynamics and electrical design help automakers overcome the historic trade-off between power density and efficiency. This industry-leading innovation aids emissions reduction and improved fuel economy alongside a more responsive driving experience.
Garrett’s Two-Stage compressor enables automakers to optimize electric powertrain potential by boosting hydrogen fuel cell stacks to higher pressures and flows within a downsized package that fits inside regular vehicles.
Advanced bearing and electrical system designs increase performance, reduce size, weight, and noise, and help make the vision of zero-emissions vehicles a reality.
Garrett Latest generation of Variable Geometry Turbo DAVNT (Double Axle VNT) offers robust and high performance-boosting solutions enabling fuel efficiency improvement, emission reduction and further enhanced engine braking capabilities.
