The ISL is the most popular engine in the transit market, due to its high reliability, low maintenance and fuel efficiency. The ISL incorporates familiar, proven technologies and subsystems: cooled EGR, Cummins patented VG Turbo, High Pressure Common Rail fuel injection, and Cummins Particulate Filter. These technologies have been used in Cummins transit bus engines for years.

Cummins ISL has the ideal performance for larger, luxury motorhomes. With ratings from 370-425 hp, it has the power to accelerate, at any speed. 1200 lb-ft of peak torque lets you climb steep grades even when towing. The ISL also has a very stout engine brake which provides greater peace of mind on those steep downhill runs. Plus, the engine braking capacity reduces wear on your service brakes, lengthening service intervals and saving you money. And with 20,000-mile (32,000 km) oil change intervals, the ISL makes your maintenance budget go farther.
