Agility Fuel Solutions has received certification from the California Air Resources Board for its first natural-gas-powered engine, the company announced.

The Agility 366NG is a General Motors 6.0L engine equipped with the n Agility natural gas fuel system. It received CARB’s optional Low NOx Emissions Standards and Greenhouse Emissions Standards and was also certified to be in compliance with CARB’s Heavy-Duty On-Board Diagnostics standard.

“This certification demonstrates Agility’s capabilities to meet newer, more stringent engine certification requirements, including HD-OBD,” said Brad Garner, Agility’s president – Powertrain Systems.  “In addition, because this engine is certified to the Optional Low NOx standard, fleets using this engine will qualify for a higher level of grant funding and rebates.”

The engine is designed for several applications, including vans, cuatawy chassis, cabovers, terminal tractors, and other work truck applications. It is available to original equipment manufacturers as a standalone engine or as a fuel system only and can be combined with Agility’s compressed natural gas storage solutions for a complete end-to-end natural gas solution in Class 4-6 medium-duty vehicles.
