Allison eGen Power axle on Hino heavy-duty trucks: tests are about to begin
The fully integrated eGen Power 100D features two electric motors, each capable of generating 454 kW of continuous power, with peak combined power of 652 kW. The e-Axle integrates a two-speed gearbox within the central housing, enabling the high torque required to get heavy loads moving, while also offering the benefit of superior efficiency at cruise speed.
Allison Transmission’s eGen Power 100D e-Axle will equip Hino XL heavy duty vehicles. Following the successful completion of vehicle integration, the testing and validation stage is about to begin. The tests will be carried out at the Allison Vehicle Electrification + Environmental Test Center.
