In 2013, the Cummins-led team demonstrated a Tier 2 Bin 5 version of the engine on the dyno, and then on a vehicle, while development of the Tier 2 Bin 2 engine started. The Amminex direct ammonia delivery system (DADS) can further improve NO x conversion performance by reducing the time delay before NH3 introduction after cold start.

Funded by the German state of North Rhine-Westphalia, the project began in 2010 and is scheduled to continue until September 2013. There are two ways to reduce energy use in vehicles: improving the conversion efficiency of fuels to motion and reducing the amount of work that powertrains need to do.

Only the shoebox unit—consisting of transverse shell-and-tube design in which banks of parallel, vertical catalyst tubes extended through a transverse stack of exhaust-side heat-exchange plates—exhibited sustained high conversion with low and stable fuel-side pressure throughout a 500 h test period. —Sall et al.

Conversion efficiency is now the key. liter, normally-aspirated V8 engine used from 2006 to 2013 is replaced by a turbo 1.6-liter Energy can still be recovered from and deployed to the rear axle, however this is now termed MGU-K ( Kinetic) and is permitted twice the maximum power of the 2013 motor (120 kW versus 60 kW).
