BorgWarner to Supply Turbocharger and EGR Cooler for European Truck OEM's Euro 7 Diesel Engine
BorgWarner has secured a contract to supply advanced turbocharging and exhaust gas recirculation components to a major European truck maker for a new heavy-duty diesel engine meeting Euro 7 standards.
- 2028
What Happened
BorgWarner, a global leader in sustainable mobility solutions, has won a contract to supply a high-efficiency variable turbine geometry (VTG) turbocharger and an exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) cooler to a major European commercial vehicle OEM. The components are designed for a new Euro 7-compliant, 6-cylinder heavy-duty diesel engine for long-haul truck applications. Production is expected to begin at the end of 2028, and the components will be manufactured at BorgWarner's facilities in Bradford, United Kingdom, and Vigo, Spain.
“We are pleased to further expand our relationship with this customer on our jointly developed turbocharger and EGR cooler business for a premium heavy-duty engine platform. This award reflects BorgWarner’s ability to combine advanced technology, strong application engineering and competitive solutions to support demanding commercial vehicle applications.”
- VTG turbocharger features tailored cartridge and turbine housing design, ball bearings for improved transient response and fuel efficiency, and a high-efficiency compressor optimized for demanding con
- EGR cooler has an advanced internal plate design to improve thermal performance and recirculation efficiency, plus a floating core architecture to enhance durability under severe thermal cycling.
Why this matters
BorgWarner's contract underscores the ongoing importance of diesel engine technology in heavy-duty trucking, even as emissions regulations tighten. The advanced components help manufacturers meet strict Euro 7 standards while maintaining performance and fuel efficiency.
