Engine DAF 1160

DAF 1160 diesel engines are 6-cylinder in-line water-cooled engines with a working area of 11.6 liters. The fuel system uses an in-line injection pump with excellent performance.

The DAF 1160 was produced from 1974 to 1999. During development, the base Leyland 0.680 engine was used, the license for which was acquired by DAF. The manufacturer increased the engine size and power, which in the first DKA 1160 models ranged from 165 hp to 230 hp, depending on the configuration.

A few years later, a more powerful DKS 1160 engine was developed, equipped with a turbocharging system. This system made it possible to increase the power of the unit without increasing the engine size. The most popular was the performance that produced 228 hp (310 kW).

A year later, the production of horizontal engines for outdoor use in transport vehicles and buses began. Their power was 186 hp (252 kW).
