Depending on the technology used for by the engine manufacturer going from Tier 3 to Tier 4 could actually increase the efficiency. The Tier 4 engines that utilize SCR/DOC are literally Tier 2 engines with exhaust aftertreatment added. These engines were stripped of the EGR systems which allowed them to run more efficiently but created more NOX. The SCR/DOC was then installed downstream of the engine to clean things up. My experience is with farm equipment but many over- the-road engines use the same technology so the principles are the same. We have many customers reporting a noticeable drop in fuel consumption with the new models compared to the older Tier 3 machines even though the power and capacity was increased. Of course, you do have the expense of another consumable (exhaust fluid) but this cost is small compared to what is saved by using less fuel. But, there is no denying the fact that the emission control systems are expensive and have added a lot to the selling price.
