      [size size=150]Clientes inician demandas contra Mercedes-Benz en EEUU por el uso de centralitas tramposas (#Dieselgate)[/size]

      Ya ha empezado el calvario judicial para la división norteamericana de Volkswagen, pero el resto de fabricantese se habían mantenido fuera de esto. No va a ser así para Mercedes-Benz, que tiene una demanda colectiva en la corte del distrito de Nueva Jersey, representando clientes de 13 estados.

      Los demandantes, a través del bufete Hagens Berman, sostienen que el fabricante alemán también hizo trampas homologando sus coches con motor Clean Diesel en el país. Afirman que hay pruebas de que sus coches emiten muchos más óxidos de nitrógeno (NOx) de lo que permite la normativa, a la vez que salieron airosos de las pruebas oficiales.

      Daimler, matriz de Mercedes, dijo ayer en un comunicado que el pleito no tiene razón de ser, y que nunca han usado dispositivos para engañar a las autoridades y darles diésel limpio por diésel sucio. Los motores en cuestión usan tecnología BlueTEC, es decir, inyección catalítica selectiva (SCR) con urea para disminuir las emisiones contaminantes.

      La Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) no está investigando formalmente a Mercedes-Benz, aunque sí ha pedido información al fabricante. El bufete pide adhesiones a la demanda colectiva para los dueños de las clases M, GL, E, S, R, GLK, GLE y Sprinter. Otra motivación de la demanda es la publicidad engañosa, pues, presuntamente, no son motores ecológicos (tal y como se anunciaron).

      Si la EPA determina que Mercedes-Benz también ha hecho trampas, el escándalo de las emisiones cobraría una nueva dimensión, porque hasta la fecha, solo Volkswagen está afrontando las consecuencias. Contra el resto de fabricantes hay pruebas independientes sueltas o alguna investigaciónes abierta, pero nada a nivel oficial que deba preocuparles.

          Si solo se ha descubierto que VAG utiliza centralitas falsas, no tiene sentido demandar a Mercedes por ello si no usa
          Pero vamos, ya sabemos como son los americanos…

            [size size=150]Daimler AG construirá una nueva fábrica de motores en Polonia[/size]

            Daimler AG continúa dando pasos en su particular expansión de la marca Mercedes-Benz y prueba de ello es el reciente anuncio que han realizado. Ni más ni menos que el acuerdo para la construcción de una nueva fábrica de motores. El grupo alemán ha confirmado el acuerdo para la construcción de la que será su primera fábrica emplazada en Jawor, en un municipio al suroeste de Polonia.

            Como bien decimos, una planta en la serán fabricados distintos motores empleados por el grupo en sus marcas. Para la construcción de esta nueva fábrica de motores, Daimler AG tendrá que hacer frente a una inversión aproximada de 500 millones de euros. Una vez las instalaciones estén listas para la producción, serán fabricados tanto motores de gasolina como diésel de cuatro cilindros.

            Se espera que esta factoría esté lista para producir motores a partir del año 2019 y tras la fábrica de Daimler (junto a su socio local) en Pekín (China), será la segunda que encontremos fuera de las fronteras de Alemania. Como bien decimos, se trata de otro paso más en los planes de expansión internacional del grupo y, en especial de Mercedes. De momento se desconoce la capacidad de producción anual de motores que tendrá esta factoría.

            Y ya que estamos hablando de fábricas de Daimler, me parece interesante recordar los rumores que vienen circulando por la red y que hablan de la posible construcción de una fábrica pero, esta vez de automóviles, que también sería situada fuera del país germano. Una factoría en la que serían producidos aquellos modelos de Mercedes-Benz que usan la arquitectura MRA. Es decir, modelos como el Clase C, Clase GLC o Clase E.

            De confirmarse dichas informaciones, esta nueva factoría también estaría localizada en Polonia. Y es que de esta manera se podrían beneficiar de la producción local de los motores de cuatro cilindros diésel y gasolina usados por los automóviles de Mercedes-Benz.

              Mecedes invertirá 3 mill. de € en el desarrollo de nuevos motores diesel y gasolina

              – FAP para los gasolina
              – mejoras en los motores diesel

              Nota de prensa, en inglés
              Innovative solution for diesel and gasoline engines: Mercedes-Benz invests approximately €3 billion in new engine technology

              – New family of diesel engines fulfills future RDE requirements
              – DEKRA confirms particularly low and below-limit NOx emissions
              – Continuous technical improvements across all model ranges
              – Large-scale introduction of particulate filters for gasoline engines

              Stuttgart – With its completely newly developed family of diesel engines, Mercedes-Benz is the first manufacturer to put diesel vehicles on the market that already fulfill the stricter emission limits planned for the EU as of September 2017. This has been achieved through an integrated technology approach, which includes new stepped combustion chambers and further developed exhaust-gas recirculation. The new engine design also allows all components for exhaust-gas recirculation to be positioned directly on the engine, instead of under the car floor as hitherto. This significantly enhances the system’s overall effectiveness – largely independently of ambient temperatures and driving style.

              The market launch of the completely newly developed four-cylinder diesel engine OM 654 is in the new E-Class. The E 220 d now consumes as little as 3.9 liters of fuel per 100 kilometers (combined according to the NEDC currently prescribed for all manufacturers), although the engine is more powerful than its predecessor (143 kW/195 hp compared with 125 kW/170 hp). This corresponds with CO2 emissions of 102 grams per kilometer.

              The new four-cylinder engine is the first member of a modular engine family that will be applied throughout the entire portfolios of Mercedes-Benz Cars and also at Mercedes-Benz Vans. Several levels of power output are planned, as well as longitudinal and transverse installation in vehicles with front-, rear- and all-wheel drive. In this way, Mercedes-Benz will equip its entire range of diesel cars in Europe with this latest engine generation including SCR technology (selective catalytic reduction) by 2019 at the latest.

              “Our customers’ trust is very important to us and we take our responsibility to the environment very seriously,” explained Prof. Dr. Thomas Weber, Daimler Board of Management Member for Group Research and Mercedes-Benz Cars Development. “That’s why we decided five years ago to invest massively in the further development of diesel technology. But we are also continuously making our gasoline engines more efficient and more environment-friendly; because high-tech combustion engines will remain the backbone of individual mobility until the widespread market success of electric vehicles. For this reason, we are investing a total of about three billion euros to ensure further improvements in fuel consumption and emissions – in both future and current vehicles.”

              DEKRA confirms particularly low and below-limit NOx emissions

              In addition to their good fuel consumption, the new family of diesel engines also has the advantage of particularly low nitrogen-oxide emissions. That has now been confirmed by independent measurements by DEKRA, a German vehicle inspection company. The DEKRA experts carried out an extensive test program with a Mercedes-Benz E 220 d. The focus was on Real Driving Emissions (RDE), the method prescribed in the EU as of September 2017 in addition to measuring emissions on the test bench.

              The RDE dynamic test program covers various stretches of road that include urban streets, country roads and freeways. The measurements were carried out at various temperatures between about two and 16 degrees Celsius, and with various numbers of occupants and varying loads. As a result, the E 220 d emitted less NOx than the limit of 80 mg/km on all applicable RDE routes. In some cases, the NOx emissions were at the very low level of between just 13 and 21 mg/km even at low ambient temperatures.

              Continuous improvement also with current diesel engines

              The Mercedes-Benz engineers made use of the newly gained knowledge from the development of the new family of diesel engines also to continually improve the emissions of current vehicle models. That includes optimizations with regard to turbocharging and the further development of fuel injection and intercooling, as well as the application of new materials such as chromized timing chains. The combination of these measures results in improved robustness of the parts and components that are subjected to particular stress by combustion and exhaust-gas recirculation. The operating range of exhaust-gas recirculation has been extended towards significantly lower temperatures. Another factor is the increased efficiency of the SCR systems. This has been achieved by modifying the design of the exhaust system and by applying new catalyst materials. This entire package of measures is now being successively applied in series production.

              With the entry-level engines of the compact cars (A- and B-Class and the CLA and GLA) and with the V-Class, Mercedes-Benz is offering the recent improvements as a software update on cars already in customers’ hands in the context of a voluntary service action to be implemented in the coming months, starting with the V-Class in June.

              Gasoline engines with particulate filters in the future

              Thanks to a large number of development advances, diesel engines’s emissions of particulate matter have been continually reduced in recent years. Also many of the modern Mercedes-Benz gasoline engines already emit lower levels of particulate matter than the limits to be introduced in the future. This is achieved by means of modifications within the engines as well as through the application of piezo injectors.

              For the further improvement of environmental compatibility, Mercedes-Benz plans the large-scale use of particulate filters also for gasoline engines – the first manufacturer to do so. After more than two years of positive field tests with the Mercedes-Benz S 500, additional versions of the S-Class with gasoline engines are to be equipped with this new technology with the next model upgrade. That will be followed by gradual implementation in further new models, model upgrades and new engine generations. After that, particulate filters will also be applied in the current model ranges.

                  Por lo que me han explicado, problema ninguno. Por el principio de funcionamiento del gasolina, se produce gases mas calientes que en un diesel, con lo que el FAP puede trabajar en modo pasivo sin problema ninguno. Esto es, funcionar todo el tiempo gracias a esos gases calientes. En los diesel, al producir gases menos calientes, hay que quemar mas combustible para subir la temperatura y hacer que el FAP, funcione. Y ya sabemos que hay determinadas circunstancias por las que no puede pasar, en un gasolina no tendria problema

                  Es algo que van a terminar montandose en todos los gasolina de inyección directa, y segun me cuentan, 2.0 TSI de VAG ya lo lleva incorporado desde hace tiempo

                    [size size=150]Todos los Mercedes estarán electrificados en el futuro[/size]

                    Resumiendo un poco, que es largo, viene a decir que todos los motores, hasta los normales (los hibridos y electricos ya lo son jeje), estarán electrificados. Se pasarán a la corriente electrica de 48V para poder hacer motores mucho mas eficientes
                    ¿Y cual va a ser uno de ellos? Pues un nuevo motor de gasolina de 6 cilindros en linea (si, vuelven los 6L en Mercedes), que hará su aparición en 2017. En ese mismo año los motores de 4 cilindros mejorarán con un generador de arranque (no se como traducir esto: belt-driven starter generator)
                    Tambien en 2017 veremos los filtros de particulas (FAP) en los gasolina (curiosamente el S500 actual ya lleva FAP)

                        [youtube]oBjFT9WAQxU[/youtube]

                        Cada vez son más marcas las que se unen a la carrera de la conducción autónoma, aunque todavía tenga una meta lejana. Es el caso de Mercedes-Benz, que acaba de presentar su Future Bus, un autobús urbano que puede circular de modo pilotado por ciudad hasta a una velocidad de hasta 70 km/h. El prototipo de la firma de la estrella funciona gracias a sistema CityPilot, que combina una serie de radares y cámaras. El vehículo, de 12 metros de largo, está basado en el autobús Citaro. Es capaz de detenerse ante obstáculos, peatones y se adapta al tráfico urbano. También puede pasar por túneles y reconoce los semáforos. La tecnología usada es semejante a la que emplea, por ejemplo, el Mercedes-Benz Clase E.Este autobús llega dos años después de que Mercedes presentara su Future Truck 2025. Daimler ha puesto a prueba el Future Bus en Ámsterdam y en tráfico abierto con resultados satisfactorios. El vehículo ha podido recorrer 20 kilómetros a lo largo de un tramo habilitado (Schiphol-Haarlem) para el sistema de tránsito rápido de la ciudad o BRT, haciendo las paradas correspondientes. El Future Bus, que está conectado a las infraestructuras mediante Wi-Fi. respetó las normas de tráfico y recogió varios viajeros a su paso. En todo momento, a bordo del vehículo estaba un conductor, monitorizando las acciones del autobús. No tuvo que intervenir en ningún momento para hacer uso de la dirección, el acelerador o los frenos. Desde Daimler aseguran que la suavidad del viaje permite un viaje cómodo y supone un ahorro de combustible, reduciendo así las emisiones.

                                        Extensive strategic engine initiative from Mercedes-Benz: More powerful, more economical and cleaner

                                        Stuttgart/Sindelfingen. The biggest strategic engine initiative in the history of Mercedes-Benz will enter its decisive phase in 2017. Following the launch of the new four-cylinder diesel engine in spring 2016, next year will see the addition of no fewer than four more members to the all-new family of engines: six-cylinder in-line engines in both diesel and petrol versions, a new four-cylinder petrol engine and a new biturbo V8. At the same time, there will be world premieres for ground-breaking technologies, such as the Integrated Starter-Alternator (ISG), the 48 V electrical system and the electric auxiliary compressor (eZV). These new technologies are tuned to the vehicles on state-of-the-art test rigs at the equally new Powertrain Integration Centre (AIZ) in Sindelfingen.

                                        «More powerful, more economical and cleaner – the new modular family of engines from Mercedes-Benz offers the right powertrain for every vehicle,» says Prof. Dr Thomas Weber, 62, Member of the Daimler Board of Management with responsibility for Group Research at Daimler AG and Mercedes-Benz Cars Development. «The systematic optimisation of our high-tech engines plays a crucial role in the road map towards sustainable mobility. They also need to be designed with a view to all current and future requirements. A key success factor in this regard is the extensive electrification of the powertrain.»

                                        Systematic electrification: new six-cylinder in-line petrol engine M 256

                                        The new six-cylinder in-line petrol engine M 256 represents an outstanding example of electrification, including a 48 V electrical system. New, intelligent turbocharging, e.g. with an electric auxiliary compressor (eZV), as well as an Integrated Starter-Alternator (ISG) provide the guarantee of excellent drivability with no turbo lag. The ISG is responsible for hybrid functions, such as boost or energy recovery, while allowing fuel savings that were previously reserved for high-voltage hybrid technology. The bottom line is that the new six-cylinder in-line engine offers the same performance as an eight-cylinder machine while being much more fuel-efficient. The new petrol engine (internal code: M 256) launches next year in the new S-Class.

                                        Systematic electrification dispenses with the need for a belt drive for ancillary components at the front of the engine, which reduces its overall length. The narrow construction, together with the physical separation of intake/exhaust, creates space for near-engine exhaust aftertreatment. The 48 V electrical system serves not only high power consumers, such as the water pump and air-conditioning compressor, but also the Integrated Starter-Alternator (ISG), which also supplies energy to the battery by means of highly efficient energy recovery.

                                        An additional bonus is the unsurpassed refinement of the six-cylinder in-line engine. Output and torque are similar to the current eight-cylinder engine, i.e. over 300 kW (408 hp) and more than 500 Nm. In comparison with the previous V6, the CO2 emissions from the engine have been reduced by around 15 percent.

                                        At 500 cc, the new machine has the same displacement per cylinder as the premium diesel engine family unveiled last year as well as the family of four-cylinder petrol engines.

                                        Most powerful passenger-car diesel engine in the history of Mercedes-Benz: six-cylinder OM 656

                                        The new top-of-the-line engine in the premium diesel family is likewise a six-cylinder in-line machine. The characteristics of the OM 656 include the stepped-bowl combustion process, two-stage exhaust turbocharging and, for the first time, the use of CAMTRONIC variable valve timing. Its design features a combination of aluminium engine block and steel pistons as well as further-improved NANOSLIDE® coating of the cylinder walls. Although there is a significant increase in output compared with the previous OM 642 (over 230 kW/313 hp instead of 190 kW/258 hp), the new engine consumes more than seven percent less fuel.

                                        Like the already unveiled four-cylinder OM654, the new six-cylinder diesel engine OM 656 is likewise designed to comply with future emissions legislation (RDE – Real Driving Emissions). All the components of relevance for efficient emissions reduction are installed directly on the engine. The integrated technology approach of new stepped-bowl combustion process, dynamic multi-way exhaust gas recirculation and near-engine exhaust aftertreatment, combined for the first time with variable valve timing, opens the way for further reductions in consumption together with extremely low emissions. Thanks to the near-engine insulated configuration, exhaust aftertreatment has a low heat loss and extremely favourable operating conditions. This is reinforced by the CAMTRONIC switchable exhaust camshaft, which supports the consumption-neutral heating of the exhaust system.

                                        Number of cylinders to suit the requirements: new V8 biturbo petrol engine M 176

                                        Dynamic power delivery combined with high efficiency: the new biturbo (internal code: M 176) is one of the most economical V8 petrol engines in the world. Its special features include cylinder shutoff at part load as well as the positioning of the turbochargers in the V between the cylinder banks. From its 3982 cc displacement, the new V8 biturbo produces over 350 kW (476 hp) with a maximum torque of around 700 Nm from 2000 rpm. The new engine will consume over 10 percent less fuel than its predecessor, which is rated at 335 kW (455 hp). The new V8 will launch with this technology next year in the new S-Class.

                                        For lower fuel consumption, when operated at part load the new M 176 shuts off four cylinders simultaneously by means of CAMTRONIC valve timing. This reduces the pumping losses while improving the overall efficiency of the remaining four cylinders by shifting the operating point towards higher loads.

                                        Sporty specific output: new four-cylinder petrol engine M 264

                                        A two-litre four-cylinder engine with a specific output of around 100 kW: the new Toptype petrol engine from Mercedes-Benz (internal code: M 264) advances into output regions previously reserved for high-displacement six-cylinder machines. At the same time, it consumes significantly less fuel than a comparable six-cylinder engine. The engine’s special features include twin-scroll turbochargers, belt-driven 48 V starter-alternator (BSA) and electric 48 V water pump.

                                        The BSA is also responsible for fuel-saving hybrid functions:

                                        – Easy start: virtually imperceptible starting and acceleration of the engine
                                        – Boost in the engine-speed range up to 2500 rpm
                                        – Energy recovery up to 12.5 kW
                                        – Shifting of the load point: allows operation in a more favourable area of the engine map
                                        – Coasting with engine off.

                                        In the interests of high power output and a spontaneous engine response, Mercedes-Benz has opted for twin-scroll turbocharging. Unlike conventional systems, a twin-scroll turbocharger merges the exhaust gas ducts of cylinder pairs in the flow-optimised manifold. This turbocharging concept with systematic cylinder flow separation produces high torque in the low-rpm range together with high specific output. Further efficiency measures include intake CAMTRONIC and a friction loss reduction package.

                                        Even cleaner: particulate filter for petrol engines as standard

                                        Mercedes-Benz is the first manufacturer to opt for the large-scale use of particulate filters for petrol engines to further improve their environmental compatibility. After more than two years of positive experience in the field with the S 500, in 2017 further S-Class variants will be equipped with the new M 256 and M 176 petrol engines with this technology. The filter will then be gradually introduced in other new vehicle models, facelifted models and new engine generations, such as the M 264.

                                        The particulate filter for petrol engines reduces the emissions of fine soot particles. How it works: the exhaust-gas stream is supplied to a particulate filter system. The filter has a honeycomb structure with alternately sealed inlet and outlet channels. This forces the exhaust gas to flow through a porous filter wall, which traps the soot. The filter can be continuously regenerated under corresponding driving conditions.

                                        New Powertrain Integration Centre (AIZ): state-of-the-art test rigs

                                        With its new Powertrain Integration Centre (AIZ), in summer 2016 Mercedes-Benz took into service one of the automotive industry’s most advanced test facilities. A total of ten vehicle test rigs inside the all-new state-of-the-art building in Sindelfingen are used for such purposes as the fine tuning of engine and transmission – comfort, dynamics and agility are matched to each other. The highlights include test rigs with high-precision torque measurement directly at the wheels of the vehicle as well as a test rig with a climatic altitude chamber, which uses partial vacuum to simulate an altitude of up to 5000 metres at temperatures of down to -30°C, while the vehicle operates fully automatically on a chassis dynamometer.

                                        The new building at the Sindelfingen Mercedes-Benz Technology Centre (MTC) houses ten vehicle test rigs for tuning vehicles and their powertrains. The new building used 16,800 m3 of concrete, equivalent to the capacity of five Olympic swimming pools. There were also 2500 tonnes of reinforcing steel. The designers of the AIZ attached great importance to energy recovery, with 98 percent of the electric braking energy produced on the test rigs being fed back into the power network. Also, the air conditioning of the test rigs is energy-neutral for two-thirds of the year, which means that no power is consumed from the joint network. With all ten test rigs in continuous operation, this would be the same as supplying around 7500 households with electricity.
