        "summary": "Isuzu says all its Indonesian vehicles use Common Rail diesel engines, claiming improved fuel efficiency and lower emissions. The firm notes a 15-year history of deployment, plus internal testing showing 8.6 km per litre under a 5,400 kg GVW ELF NLR L, with a 34.4% advantage over competitors and monthly cost savings up to 25.6%.",
        "content": "<p>JAKARTA, KOMPAS.com - At present, all Isuzu vehicles are equipped\nwith diesel engines featuring Common Rail technology. This technology is\nclaimed to optimise fuel consumption by controlling fuel injection more\nprecisely. Moreover, the engine is not only more fuel-efficient but also\nemits lower emissions. Rian Erlangga, Head of the Business Strategy\nDivision at PT Isuzu Astra Motor Indonesia, said Isuzu has introduced\nCommon Rail technology in Indonesia for 15 years. \u2018This technology has\nproven to increase fuel efficiency and reduce exhaust emissions. It\ndirectly benefits customers\u2019 businesses, and to date remains the choice\nof Isuzu Partners in various regions across Indonesia,\u2019 he was quoted as\nsaying from an official statement, Tuesday 19 May 2026. Next, fuel\natomisation is supported by a solenoid valve (also known as a\npiezoelectric valve) which enables good electronic control over the\ntiming and quantity of fuel injection. In the process, the engine\u2019s\nelectronic control unit injects a small amount of fuel just before the\nmain injection event occurs. Thus, the timing of fuel injection becomes\nefficient, the amount of fuel injected is efficient, resulting in an\neconomy of fuel consumption. Defined to Euro 4 standard limits. The\nefficiency of the Common Rail technology used by Isuzu has also been\ndemonstrated through internal testing of the Isuzu ELF NLR L by\nsimulating an on-road journey over 26 days with a daily distance of 450\nkm. The vehicle\u2019s GVW total reached 5,400 kg and used bio-diesel fuel.\nIn the test, the Isuzu ELF NLR L demonstrated fuel efficiency of 8.6 km\nper litre, or 34.4% more efficient than the competitor, with potential\nfuel savings of Rp3.1 million. \u2018Through the use of a engine that has\nbeen equipped with Common Rail, the Isuzu ELF NLR L can deliver even\nmore optimal fuel efficiency without compromising vehicle performance.\nThe internal trial simulations showed an impact on operating costs,\nsaving up to 25.6% per month,\u2019 said Rian.<\/p>",
