For some time, there has been quite a change in how the trucking industry views the internal combustion engine juxtaposed with the emergence of electrification.
I witnessed that during the reveal of Navistar’s S13 Integrated powertrain in Las Vegas this summer.
With parent company Traton Group, Navistar boasted that it was its biggest project in a half century; however, it was another claim that gave me pause: The S13 engine will be their last internal combustion engine design.
