Engine Tiers are a recent industry development that have occurred due to increased environmental awareness. From 2004 onwards, the Environmental Protection Agency increased Tier 4 engine standards which will be phased in from 2008 to 2015. This will require an emission reduction of approximately 90% more of particulate matter and NOx – but this is generally requiring the use of post-exhaust treatments. Tier 3 engines are only applicable for engines 225 ≤ kW < 450 (300 ≤ hp < 600)
