SmartSupport provides transit authorities with more control over parts- and service-related costs. By purchasing SmartSupport in conjunction with extended coverage, transit authorities will have a more comprehensive coverage experience with fixed pricing. 

“With our latest Euro 6 product range we offer bus and coach manufacturers the option to right-size some of their engine installations down to a lower displacement, while still retaining the low-end torque they require for acceleration and driveability,” said Ashley Watton, Cummins Director – On-Highway Europe.   

As with our announcement in September on our Euro VI platforms, this helps further reduce the carbon footprint of Cummins-powered bus, truck, agricultural and construction fleets operating around the world. Compared with conventional fossil-based diesel, paraffinic diesel fuels offer the potential to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 40 percent to 90 percent over the total life cycle of the vehicle.

To the astonishment of the industry, the experimental Diesel Special with the 430 hp (321 kW) Cummins engine had outperformed some of the fastest gasoline-powered race cars in the world to become the first–and only–diesel to take the coveted pole position.

By obtaining data through Zonar’s V3™ telematics control unit, Cummins Connected Diagnostics wirelessly connects your engine to Cummins for immediate diagnosis of engine fault alerts.  Using unique Cummins algorithms, Connected Diagnostics prioritizes engine fault information and translates it into clear, actionable recommendations that are immediately sent to operations managers.  With this report, fleet managers can quickly intervene when service is needed immediately, or can proactively schedule a service event to prevent progressive damage to a vehicle.  

“It’s been nearly a year since we first announced the crate engine program, Cummins Repower™, and the response and anticipation from the Enthusiasts has been overwhelming,” said Steve Sanders, Program Leader - Cummins Repower. “Our team has performed extensive work to ensure this product meets the tremendous expectations of our customers. We are excited to finally bring more high quality Cummins power and dependability to a new group of consumers.”

As displayed at APTA Expo (Booth 1933), the QSK95 uses integrated Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) aftertreatment to meet Tier 4 emissions. Combined with Cummins latest-generation Modular Common Rail fuel system (MCR) and turbocharging, it delivers 4400 hp (3281 kW), the highest output of any 16-cylinder high-speed diesel. It enables locomotives to reach top speeds of over 125 mph (201 kmh).

GILLIG LLC and Cummins Inc. (NYSE: CMI) announced today a new electrified power partnership at the APTA public transportation show taking place in Atlanta. The technical collaboration work focuses on integrating and optimizing new battery electric technology offered by Cummins that will soon power GILLIG zero-emissions transit buses.

Cummins will reveal electrified power technology for transit bus applications at the APTA public transportation show opening in Atlanta on October 9.

“Whilst most manufacturers are adding technologies for Stage V, Cummins are changing the rules and reducing complexity. Our latest Single ModuleTM aftertreatment technology used on 3.8 to 9 litre engines is 50% smaller and 30% lighter than the equivalent Stage IV system. Its higher efficiency NOx conversion capability supports the removal of EGR from the engine, making it simpler and easier to install for OEMs,” said Andrew Hobbs, Cummins Agriculture Business Director.
