The Power Behind Hyundai’s Next Generation Excavator

Hyundai DX05 and DX08 diesel engines power select Hyundai Next Generation excavators, bringing engine performance, hydraulics, and electronic controls together as one integrated system. Designed specifically for HD Construction Equipment, these engines help optimize machine performance, improve fuel efficiency and lower total owning and operating costs.
Why Hyundai Developed Its Own Engines
Hyundai developed the DX05 and DX08 engine platform to optimize the complete machine—not just the engine itself. By engineering the engine alongside the hydraulic system, cooling package and electronic controls, Hyundai created a fully integrated powertrain designed to improve machine performance, fuel efficiency, reliability and serviceability. This consolidated approach helps maximize productivity while reducing total owning and operating costs.

Engineered as One System
Unlike an engine adapted from another application, Hyundai's DX05 and DX08 engines are engineered specifically for Hyundai Next Generation excavators. Every major system is designed to communicate and work together, delivering smoother operation, responsive hydraulics and optimized machine performance within demanding construction environments.
More Productivity, Less Fuel
The DX05 and DX08 engines deliver efficient power where operators need it most. Intelligent engine management, refined power delivery and improved breakout force help operators accomplish more work while reducing fuel consumption throughout the workday.
Designed to Keep You Working
Longer 1,000-hour oil change intervals help reduce scheduled maintenance, lower owning and operating costs, and maximize machine uptime. Combined with simplified service access, Hyundai engines are designed to spend more time working and less time in the shop.

Lower Repair Costs
Every hour a machine spends in the shop affects productivity and profitability. Hyundai designed the DX05 and DX08 engines with simplified maintenance and competitively priced genuine replacement parts to help reduce repair costs throughout the life of the machine.
Repair parts cost up to 50% less than previous premium competitive engine brands.
• Competitive repair part pricing
