Technical data

Fuel specification

The fuel must at least satisfy national and international standards for market fuel, for example:

EN 590 (with nationally adjusted environmental and temperature requirements)

ASTM-D975 No. 1-D and 2-D

JIS KK 2204

Sulfur content: According to legal requirements in each respective country.

Low-density fuel (urban diesel in Sweden and citydiesel in Finland) can cause a power reduction of approximately 5%
and a decrease in fuel economy of approximately 2–3%.
