The Weichai medium-duty diesel engine series includes WP4, WP6, WP5 and WP7 series engines. Among them, WP4 is a four-cylinder machine, power coverage 120 ~ 125 horsepower, mainly used for passenger cars, construction machinery, marine and power generation, and now has mass production; WP6 series is a 6-cylinder engine developed on the basis of the WP4 series engine, power coverage 180 ~ 240 horsepower, mainly used for medium and heavy duty trucks, passenger cars, construction machinery, ships and power generation, and now also mass production; WP5 engine is a newly developed four-cylinder models, bore 108 mm, power cover 150 ~ 200 horsepower, Mainly used for medium-sized trucks, passenger cars, construction machinery, ships and power generation, has now begun small-scale production; WP7 engine and WP5 engine is the same platform, a six-cylinder engine, power coverage 220 ~ 300 horsepower, mainly used in medium and heavy Trucks, passenger cars, construction machinery and power generation have now been put into the market in small quantities.

The heavy-duty diesel engine series includes WP10, WP12, WP13, WP15 and M26 series engines, among which the WP10 and WP12 engines have a 126 mm bore, strokes of 130 and 155 mm, and power coverage of 160 to 440 hp. They are mainly used in heavy-duty trucks, buses, and engineering. Machinery, shipbuilding, and power generation are now in volume production; Lanqing WP10 and WP12 are a new generation of high-power engines independently developed by Weichai Power, with power coverage of 240 to 480 hp. They are mainly used for heavy-duty trucks, construction machinery, and ships. And power generation, has now been mass production; WP13 series in the Lan engine WP12 based on relative adjustments to increase the displacement, its power range can be extended to 550 horsepower, mainly used in heavy vehicles and construction machinery and other fields, is expected next year In the second half of the year, small batches will be put on the market; the WP15 engine is a product independently developed by Weichai, with a bore diameter of 130 mm, a stroke length of 170 mm, and power coverage of 550-600 hp. It is mainly used in large cargo vehicles, mining vehicles, construction machinery and other fields. The product is currently under development and is expected to be launched in small quantities in 2011. Heavy-duty engines also include 120, 170, 250, 2738, 3240, 3244, 4054 and other series products, the largest power of 10,000 horsepower; 120 series of power covers 180 to 500 horsepower, mainly used for traditional generator sets; 170 series power The range of 440 to 900 horsepower is mainly used for ships and power generation, and it is currently in mass production; the 2738 engine is a model introduced from the MAN engine series of Weichai, with a bore diameter of 270 mm and a stroke length of 380 mm, including in-line 6-cylinder, 7-cylinder, 8 Cylinder, 9 cylinders, maximum power to 4200 hp, speed 800 rpm, mainly used for ship power generation; 4054 engine bore 400 mm, stroke 450 mm, maximum power up to 10000 hp, speed 600 rpm, currently in development in.

Sun Shaojun disclosed in the report made by the conference that within three years, the Weichai engine will have a displacement of 2 to 110 liters and a power of 45 to 10,000 horsepower for commercial vehicles, buses, construction machinery, ships and power generation, and agricultural use.
