Collaboration will achieve EPA27 Phase 3
Emissions Standards compliance.
INDIANAPOLIS, Oct. 21,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Allison Transmission is pleased
to announce an uprate to its proven B400 and B3400 xFE fully
automatic transmissions, including retarder models. The increased
ratings will ensure Allison continues to offer unrivaled total
economic value to bus fleets across North America.
The uprated transmission models will now support ratings up to
350 horsepower and 1,150 ft. lbs. of torque. This increase in
ratings will enable fleets operating non-articulated buses to
continue specifying B400 and B3400 transmissions as the industry
transitions to the Cummins X10 engine for EPA27 Phase 3 emissions
compliance.
"At Allison, we are dedicated to advancing our technology to
comply with upcoming emissions regulations while continuing to
deliver differentiated value that supports our customers'
operational and sustainability goals," said Branden Harbin, Executive Director of Global
Marketing at Allison Transmission. "The uprated B400 and B3400 xFE
transmissions are a testament to our commitment to providing a
diverse array of propulsion solutions that contribute to a
reliable, more sustainable future in transportation."
This announcement comes on the heels of a recent collaboration
between Allison Transmission and Cummins to integrate and certify a
Cummins B-Series engine with the Allison eGen Flex®
electric hybrid propulsion system. The partnership is aimed at
delivering cutting-edge solutions for the transit market for model
year 2027 and beyond, further underscoring both companies'
dedication to innovation and environmental responsibility.
