Yea I heard about these Urals, they're basically still the same old engines but fitted with the Adblue injection system, which basically just injects urea into the exhaust manifold to help reduce the Nox content, a lot of manufactures have fitted this system to existing engines rather than designing a complete new engine, trouble is the system is very intolerant of impurities and is complicated and often expensive to repair, even some tractor engines use it now much to the annoyance of many farmers
