MackDesigned for customers seeking a powerful high-performing 13-liter engine, Mack Trucks has introduced its newest powertrain offering – the Mack® MP8® 505C+.

The MP8 505C+ is ideal for long-haul applications and those requiring the muscle to easily conquer mountainous terrain. Noted Roy Horton, Mack, director of product marketing.

“The MP8 505C+ is an excellent option for customers seeking a lower-displacement engine, which saves weight and improves fuel economy, but one that can also readily manage heavy loads across rigorous terrain.” The MP8 505 C+ is available in the Mack Pinnacle™ Axle Forward and Axle Back models.

The Pinnacle model is designed for durable over-the-road hauling with a Mack Advantage™ chassis to optimize payload. The Pinnacle model delivers near-zero emissions through the combination of the MP8 engine and Mack ClearTech™ SCR technology.
