The Detroit Diesel Series 60 12.7 is one of the most recognized and widely used heavy-duty diesel engines produced by Detroit Diesel. It was the first commercial diesel engine to fully integrate electronic engine controls, setting a new standard for performance management and diagnostic capability. The Series 60 platform has been used across trucks, marine applications, power generation units, fire and emergency vehicles, and mining equipment.

The Series 60 12.7 is an inline six-cylinder, four-stroke diesel engine engineered for durability and consistent output. Unlike many traditional on-highway engines of its time, it features an overhead camshaft design and "drive-by-wire" electronic controls, allowing improved fuel management, operational precision, and reliability in demanding applications.
