"The integration of our Allison 4000 Series in the H2-ICE vehicle demonstrates the critical role internal combustion engine (ICE) powertrain solutions can and will play in moving the industry closer to ultra-low emissions," said Ryan Milburn, Vice President, Product Engineering, Allison Transmission. "From our fuel-agnostic conventional transmissions to electric hybrid and fully electric propulsion systems, Allison proudly offers the power of choice for customers aiming to achieve sustainability goals without compromising performance or reliability."
Allison fully automatic transmissions are fuel agnostic, offering optimal integration with any fuel source, including gasoline, natural gas, propane, and hydrogen, delivering durability and reliable performance to strengthen sustainability initiatives without sacrificing fleet productivity and efficiency. To compensate for the lower power and slower engine response associated with alternative fuels, Allison's power shift technology and torque converter significantly improve startability, drivability, and overall productivity.
The truck, first unveiled at the 2024 ACT Expo in Las Vegas, is part of a broader initiative led by SwRI through its H2-ICE Consortium, which includes transportation industry leaders such as engine and truck manufacturers and Tier-I suppliers. Vehicles with H2-ICE engines achieve a 99.7% reduction in CO2 emissions compared to traditional diesel engines, qualifying them as Zero CO2 Emissions Vehicles under future environmental standards in both the U.S. and Europe.
