Cummins Demonstrating its Commitment to a Low-Carbon Future at International Commercial Vehicle Show

During the International Automobile Exhibition (IAA) Commercial Vehicles Show, Cummins Inc. (NYSE: CMI) introduced two technological innovations aimed at achieving lower emissions, that will also continue to power success for its customers in the future. The company is continuing to drive diesel engine innovation, which will continue to be primary power source in many commercial applications, while expanding its electrification offerings and its hybrid technologies. 

First it unveiled a near-zero diesel technology to achieve near-zero nitrogen oxides (NOx). The conceptual emissions control system is capable of minimizing emissions to levels previously thought unfeasible, including a possible next level of Euro VII regulations anticipated during the coming decade. Combine this with the latest smart digital technologies and Cummins is representing the next leap forward in diesel engine evolution.

Cummins is also unveiling the latest in hybrid technology for commercial vehicles - The Cummins PowerDrive system. PowerDrive offers consumers an innovative suite of plug-in hybrid electric solutions for light, medium and heavy-duty applications. PowerDrive’s flexible architecture means it can be incorporated in light, medium or heavy-duty vehicles and can be combined with various sizes of diesel or natural gas engines and battery pack outputs.
