Weichai Power – other nonroad diesel engines: the collective page of EPA-certified M33 large engines outside the named ranges, 616 to 1,680 kW, six- to sixteen-cylinder from Weifang, Tier 2
Weichai Power, headquartered in Weifang, Shandong, is one of China's largest diesel engine makers and is also anchored internationally in drivetrain technology through stakes in Kion and Linde Hydraulics. The versions listed here, 6M33, 12M33 and 16M33, belong to the M33 range, named after the cylinder count (6, 12, 16) and the M33 range designation; the V-configuration on the larger versions and the inline layout on the six-cylinder follow from the respective cylinder count. This page gathers the models outside the named ranges.

The register lists here 3 versions with 616 to 1,680 kW rated output, all at 1,800 rpm, from six- to sixteen-cylinder with 150 mm bore and 185 mm stroke. Maximum torque ranges from 3,267 to 8,912 Nm, also at 1,800 rpm, all three versions with a fixed-geometry turbocharger, direct injection and Tier 2 emission stage in the power category above 560 kW.
Engines of this size drive standby generator sets, marine propulsion and heavy stationary plant; Weichai ranks alongside Cummins, MTU and Caterpillar among the few makers offering large diesel engines up to double-digit megawatt output.
On a used purchase, operating hours count, along with the condition of the turbocharger, the tightness of the charge-air ducting and the service history of the injection system; on engines of this power class, parts supply through authorised Weichai representatives is decisive for uptime.
