Dongfeng Cummins Celebrates Engine No. 1 Million

Dongfeng Cummins Engine Co. Ltd., a 50-50 joint venture between Cummins Inc. and China's leading automaker, Dongfeng Motor Corp., has reached a significant milestone by producing its one-millionth engine.
The engine, a Cummins ISLe to be installed in a Dongfeng heavy-duty Tianlong truck, highlights the companies' engine partnership in China that dates back to 1986.
The companies also celebrated the completion of the prototype model of a new 13-liter engine being developed as part of a joint effort launched last year, and showcased DCEC's full line of Euro III-compliant engines, ranging in size from 4.5 liters to 8.9 liters.
The fully electronic 13-liter engine, which is expected to be ready for production in 2009, will feature a power range from 400 to 545 horsepower and is designed to be used in heavy-duty trucks above 40 tons gross weight.
Cummins is the largest foreign investor in the China diesel engine industry, and its ties in the country date back over 30 years to 1975 when then-CEO J. Irwin Miller led the first Cummins delegation to China as part of a deal to sell 14 KV12 engines to a mining customer. Today, Cummins operates more than 20 facilities in China - including 13 manufacturing sites - with all areas of the company's business represented in China.
