International Truck and Engine Corp. Monday announced the launch of the International 4400 4x2 Mid Cab tractor.

Engineered for urban and regional applications where the vehicle mission requires more than 10% bobtailing, the International 4400 Mid Cab tractor is the newest member of the International family.
For private carriers or for-hire trucking customers, the International 4400 Mid Cab tractor is built with International I6 diesel engines designed to meet the demanding conditions of urban and regional delivery businesses. International DT466 engines with 215-horsepower and 620 lb.-ft. torque ratings are standard, but customers also can select International DT466 engines with ratings up to 250 horsepower, or International DT530 engines with ratings up to 300 horsepower.
Customers operating trucks in low-mileage, urban and regional applications can capitalize on the International 4400 Mid Cab tractor's maneuverability, commanding view of the road, fuel economy and powertrain performance.
Standard cab air suspension delivers a superior ride over varying road conditions, and a parabolic, taper-leaf front suspension system with tuned shock absorbers provides outstanding ride, handling and control. Finally, lighter, stronger frames backed by a seven-year limited warranty support bigger payloads.
"To achieve success in their businesses, our customers need to be more productive and disciplined than ever, which means we have to respond by delivering vehicles that meet their higher expectations," said David Johanneson, group vice president and general manager of the Medium Vehicle Center at International Truck and Engine Corp. "The International 4400 Mid Cab tractor represents the logical extension of our medium-duty product line into urban and regional applications that desire economical diesel power and productivity delivered in a durable and serviceable on-highway tractor."
