Tan Xuguang | Revisiting Baudouin’s customers in New York

2018.09.21

On September 20, 2018, Tan Xuguang once again came to the center of New York City to visit the customers of Baudouin and witnessed the Baudouin engines running on the East River.

Two years ago, the New York City government set up city ferries to ease the severe traffic pressure on Manhattan and Brooklyn on both sides of the East River. Since being put into use, these "water buses" equipped with Baudouin engines have been working more than 18 hours a day. The power, performance and economic indicators far exceed customer expectations, and have become the first choice for many citizens.

Up to now, 100 Baudouin engines have been running on the East River, and the number is expected to increase to 200 units within one year.

The United States is the country with the strictest requirements on engine technology and environmental protection standards. Successfully entering and occupying the US market marks that the Weichai engine has reached the international first-class level.
