The SmartAdvantage powertrain will be offered as a multi-torque model that is compatible with Cummins’ SmartTorque2 functionality on ISX15 SA and X15 SA engines rated up to 500 horsepower and 1,550/1,850 lb.-ft. of torque. Additionally, the SmartAdvantage powertrain will not require the use of a transmission cooler.

“The 1,850 lb.-ft. rating has been added to provide customers with improved grade capabilities and acceleration while broadening the downsped SmartAdvantage powertrain offerings,” said Alex Stucky, product strategy manager, commercial powertrain, Eaton. “It will provide superior performance on grades and highway on-ramp entrances.”
