Allison transmission launches new transmission and partnership with freightliner trucks

Allison transmission announced at the north american commercial vehicle show (nacv), in partnership with freightliner trucks, the launch of the new allison 3414 regional haul series™ (rhs) transmission. allison is offering the 3414 rhs with ratings up to 410 horsepower and 1,450 lb.-ft. of torque. this increased power supports a growing trend for fleets to utilize their trucks in mixed duty cycles, often in city delivery routes on one shift and regional haul transport routes during a second shift. the 3414 rhs will provide fleets with 25% faster acceleration 0-20 miles per hour, as compared to competitive automated manual transmissions (amts). by leveraging allison’s xfe technology, which incorporates an internal gear scheme optimized for fuel efficiency, as well as allison’s fuelsense® 2.0 with dynactive™ shifting technology, the 3414 rhs will deliver up to 8% fuel economy improvement. the 3414 rhs is a drop-in solution for any chassis with a current allison 3000 series option—with the same form, fit, function and connections. the 3414 rhs will be the lightest transmission in this segment. in fact, the 3414 rhs is 11% lighter than the next lightest competitive transmission in the segment. the 3414 rhs includes allison’s warranty of five years, 750,000 miles, including towing, with no exclusions on individual components. with no clutches to replace, fleets will be free of unplanned downtime due to costly clutch replacements.
