Tenneco Clean Air Technologies Featured on 2015 Chevrolet Colorado/GMC Canyon ... - MarketWatch
a global supplier of Clean Air and Ride Performance products and systems announced that it is supplying clean air technologies on the 2015 Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon midsize truck platform. Tenneco supplies the converter and muffler on both engine platforms, as well as the resonator on the 6-cylinder engine. The exhaust system features hollow rod hangers to enable a lighter weight design and a close-coupled converter configuration, which improves overall engine performance by placing the converter closer to the engine. Additionally, Tenneco engineers were able to commonize the muffler designs between the 4- and 6-cylinder engines for reduced part complexity. “Tenneco’s clean air technologies specifically address the weight and fuel economy demands of this exciting truck platform,” said Greg Sibley, vice president and general manager, Tenneco North America Clean Air. Product engineering and testing for the Colorado/Canyon exhaust system was conducted at Tenneco’s global clean air engineering center in Grass Lake, Mich. Source: www.marketwatch.com
