Eaton-Cummins launches vocational transmission

Eaton Cummins Automated Transmission Technologies launched a new heavy-duty transmission for vocational trucks: the Endurant HD V automated transmission.

The Endurant HD V is the latest edition of the venture’s Endurant family of transmissions. The 12-speed transmission is designed for vocational truck applications with maximum gross combination weight ratings of 70,000 lb. (32,000 kg) using 9-liter, 11-liter, and the upcoming Cummins X10 engines. Maximum engine torque is 1,700 lb.-ft. (2300 Nm).

Among the Endurant HD transmission family, the HD V is particularly suited for vocational operations. Its launch and shift points are tuned for varying terrain conditions such as unmaintained roads, soft soil, or other difficult terrain.
