Cummins adds new ISX version to EGR lineup

Cummins has announced the addition of the new, EPA emission-compliant ISX 385 ST to its heavy-duty on-highway product line.

With 1450/1550 lb-ft of torque, the ISX 385 ST is designed for fleets in applications that don’t require an engine brake, and looking for a higher displacement engine option, with increased durability and higher residual values,

The ISX 385 ST with SmartTorque offers a Cummins-designed torque-management rating that delivers an additional 100 lb-ft of torque in the top two gears of the transmission automatically. The ISX 385 ST keeps downshifts to a minimum on the open road, delivering optimum performance no matter the run, the company says.

The Cummins ISX was the first engine certified to the October EPA emissions regulations. Every ISX and ISM engine purchased before Dec. 31, 2003, comes with the Cummins Uptime Guarantee. Under the guarantee, if any part on a customer’s ISX or ISM engine fails and can’t be repaired within a 24-hour period, Cummins not only will pay for the repairs, but also will provide a rental vehicle up to three days at no cost.
