A diesel that starts easily in Arctic-like weather? It’s all in a cold day’s
work for the Duramax Diesel 6.6L V-8 Turbo. With an advanced Direct-
Injection (DI) fuel system, the Duramax injectors pressurize fuel up to
30,000 psi. That helps to turn cold, heavy diesel fuel into an ultra-fine
mist that burns quickly and easily, to give you fast starts, quieter operation
and lower emissions than the previous model.

To help reduce carbon dioxide emissions, the Duramax Diesel 6.6L V-8 Turbo
can run on B20 biodiesel, a mixture of 20 percent biodiesel produced from
domestic renewable resources, and 80 percent petroleum diesel.
