International Truck’s first RH Series vehicles equipped with the new Allison 3414 Regional Haul Series (RHS) transmission recently rolled off the manufacturing line, according to the OEM.
Introduced late last year, the Allison 3414 RHS transmission is an uprate variant of the company’s 3000 Series.
“The International RH Series regional haul tractor was designed to provide customers a lightweight vehicle with optimal productivity and maneuverability,” said Chet Ciesielski, vice president, on-highway business, Navistar.
The 3414 RHS offers up to 410 hp and 1450 lb.-ft. of torque, as well as providing 25% faster acceleration 0-20 miles per hour and fuel economy improvements of up to 8% with Allison’s xFE technology and FuelSense 2.0 with DynActive Shifting, according to the company.
The 3414 RHS also includes Allison’s five year/750,000 miles warranty. RH Series vehicles equipped with the new Allison 3414 RHS transmission will go into full production in late 2020.
