Allison 3414 Regional Haul Series™ (RHS) and
4000 Series™ now available to order as the exclusive fully
automatic in International RH and HX Series trucks,
respectively.
INDIANAPOLIS, April 24,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Allison Transmission
announced today that International Truck, a Navistar brand, has
integrated Allison fully automatic transmissions into S13-equipped
trucks. Through the partnership's continued collaboration, the
award-winning Allison 3414 Regional Haul Series™ (RHS) is now
available to order in International RH trucks equipped with the S13
engine. Additionally, the Allison 4000 Series™ is also available to
order with S13-equipped International HX trucks.
As part of the S13 engine launch plan, Navistar recognized the
need for additional powertrain options. With the combination of
Allison fully automatic transmissions, International's RH and HX
platforms, and the Navistar S13 engine, customers are presented
with two high-performance solutions with superior acceleration and
optimized efficiency.
"We are proud to collaborate with International Truck to pair
both the 3414 RHS and 4000 Series fully automatic transmissions
with the Navistar S13 engine for an industry-leading driving
experience," said Rohan Barua, Vice
President, North America Sales, Global Channel and Aftermarket at
Allison Transmission. "Specifically, the 3414 RHS fully automatic
transmission offers increased horsepower and a lighter weight,
translating into more deliveries, more loads and more
productivity."
Since launching with the Navistar A26 engine in 2020, 3414
RHS-equipped International RH trucks have been selected by some of
the largest fleets in North
America including leading wholesale food distributors. The
award-winning fully automatic transmission has also gained traction
with regional food and beverage distribution fleets.
The 3414 RHS fully automatic transmission is designed to enhance
vehicle handling and maneuverability in urban duty cycles. It
provides superior performance and efficiency while improving fuel
economy by up to 8% compared to the Allison 3000 Highway Series™
transmission. Additionally, it eliminates downtime associated with
automated manual transmissions (AMTs) by avoiding the need for
clutch replacements.
