The exhaust system is made entirely of stainless steel. This increases the life of the exhaust lines and the muffler housings. The funnel sections of the catalytic converters are a double-walled design (air gap insulation) to reduce noise.

The exhaust system of the right and the left cylinder bank have been designed separately (twin-pipe).

IMPORTANT The exhaust system ensures that the EU 4 limits are met.
