The company has equipped 115 Iveco Eurocargo ML150 4×4 trucks with the Allison 3000 Series six-speed fully automatic transmission with Power Take-Off. Built to handle steep inclines, the trucks have been shipped and will be in service across several Australian states facing bushfire emergencies.

This is the first time Eicher has fitted an Automated Manual Transmission (AMT) in the Pro 8035XM tipper; the E-Smart Shift AMT is derived from Volvo Truck’s I-Shift AMT.

The company announced record full-year sales of USD 3,035 million, which increased the Earnings Per Share (EPS) to a record USD 7.04, up 34 per cent from 2022. 2023 net income was USD 673 million, compared with 2022 figures of USD 531 million.

The iQ-Cruise will be integrated with Eaton’s portfolio of automated manual transmissions, including the Eaton Cummins range.

Changes have been made to the D13 engine's pistons, fuel injectors, and oil pump, while the I-Shift transmission now shifts gears up to 30% faster than before.

With the announced investment, ZF will hire 400 new workers and prepare the site for a wider range of manufacturing outputs, serving both internal combustion engines and electric powertrains.

The transmission is paired with the Cummins X15 engine, designed for peak performance for on-highway heavy-duty vehicle (HGV) applications.

Production, according to Silvio Furtado, vice-president of Solutions for Commercial Vehicles and Industrial Technology ZF South America, exceeds 100 units a day and that the factory has recently completed a production sequence of more than 32,000 transmissions without a failure.

Now measuring 410,000 square feet, the Huntsville plant can now support two assembly lines and three machining lines, employing more than 230 skilled workers.

TraXon unit number 1,000,000 rolled off the production line at the company’s headquarters on 11 September, only eighteen months after ZF surpassed 500,000 units.

Sigma Powertrain's flagship product is the EMAX, an electric drive system for electric vehicles in classes 6-8, as well as offroad vehicles and heavy equipment. It incorporates a transmission based on a patented design which uses no hydraulics.

SWM, which manages 40 percent of Malaysia’s waste collection services, is upgrading its fleet with 250 Hino 500 Series refuse trucks which will pair the Hino J08E-WK engine with the Allison 3000 Series six-speed fully automatic transmission with Power Take-Off.
