Fuel mass flow comparison shows Pinnacle engine ahead at just about all points in the map. On the emissions side, noted Cleeves, Pinnacle can run its engine efficiently enough at at a low enough temperature to avoid the need for a three-way catalyst to meet Euro 6. Right now, the emissions standard in the target market is Euro 4.
