INDIANAPOLIS, Feb. 4, 2025
/PRNewswire/ -- Allison Transmission is pleased to announce the
availability of our leading edge TerraTran™ fully automatic
transmission in the wide body mining dump (WBMD) market for the
first time. Allison has partnered with Xuzhou Construction
Machinery Group (XCMG) to integrate the transmission into their
XG110 WBMD trucks. The first series of 225 trucks equipped with
TerraTran have been delivered and are supporting mining operations
in Brazil.
"We selected TerraTran for our WBMD vehicles due its ability to
enhance vehicle productivity, maneuverability and overall
drivability," said Mr. Hu Deping, Vice General Manager, XCMG Heavy
Vehicle. "Our relationship with Allison is built on a foundation of
performance and quality, and we trust that their products will
continue to deliver for our mining customers."
An uprate variant of the proven Allison 4000 Series™, TerraTran

durability of the 4000 Series transmission, but with increased
horsepower, torque and GVW capability, while also adding fast
reverse capability.
