Allison Transmission Expands Partnership With Daimler Truck North America

By Kelly Cloonan


Allison Transmission Holdings is expanding its work with Daimler Truck North America (DTNA).

Allison said Tuesday it will provide two advanced, fully automatic transmission offerings for one of DTNA's medium-duty truck models.

Trucks equipped with Allison's 3414 Regional Haul Series transmission paired with a diesel engine will enter production in January 2027. The transmission offering aims to improve vehicle handling, maneuverability and acceleration, Allison said.

Those with Allison 9-Speed transmission paired with an octane engine will enter production in July, the company said. The transmission offering is designed to help vehicles meet efficiency requirements and strike a balance between torque delivery and fuel-saving capabilities.
