Allison Transmission Showcased Innovative Electrification Solutions at COMTRANS 2021

MOSCOW, Russia, September 2021. Allison Transmission, a leading designer and manufacturer of conventional, electric hybrid and fully electric vehicle propulsion solutions, showcased its latest developments in transportation electrification at the 16th International Commercial Vehicle Show (COMTRANS).

For the first time in Russia, Allison Transmission has presented the Allison eGen Power™ electric axles, integrated fully electric drive systems for medium- and heavy-duty trucks, as well as the Allison eGen Flex™ electric hybrid system.

The Allison eGen Power e-Axle series is the latest offering in the electrification segment. The development, testing, and deployment of electrified products is one of the top priorities for Allison Transmission. The eGen Power electric axles allow customers to specify vehicles with improved performance. The Allison eGen Power electric axles are compact, ergonomic, and lighter than other products in the segment, with the electric drive units and inverters fully integrated into the axles.

The Allison eGen Flex electric hybrid system is the next step in the evolution of the proven Allison H 40/50 EP™ hybrid system. Unlike its predecessor, the eGen Flex allows a bus, to completely shut off the engine and drive on electric power only in designated areas, such as areas with a prohibition on harmful emissions. The vehicle can switch to electric drive automatically using geofencing technology.

In addition to its new offerings, Allison Transmission presented its traditional solutions at COMTRANS 2021. Attendees were be able to learn about the advantages of a fully automatic transmission while viewing an Allison 3000 Series™ fully automatic transmission in the stand. This transmission is widely used in Russian-made commercial vehicles.
