“Following a successful pilot stage, we are thrilled to support this leading manufacturer in scaling their deployment of X15N natural gas-powered trucks,” says Ian MacDonald, Head of Fuel Systems for Hexagon Agility. “The proven performance, reliability, and cost benefits of natural gas trucks make them an ideal solution for distribution fleets, and we’re excited to see those benefits now being realized in the long-haul, heavy-duty segment.”
about the North American truck market
Approximately 300,000 heavy-duty trucks are sold annually in the North American market. Previously, 100,000 of these trucks made up the addressable market for natural gas solutions. Now with the Cummins X15N natural gas engine, natural gas is well-suited for every operation, haul and load requirement fleets demand, adding 200,000 heavy-duty trucks to the addressable market for CNG/RNG annually.
With power ratings up to 500 hp (~370 kW) and torque up to 1850 lb.-ft (~2500 Nm), the X15N engine meets the demands of long-haul heavy-duty fleet operators, delivering performance that matches diesel. Coupled with Hexagon Agility’s fuel systems, trucks can now achieve a driving range of more than 1,100 miles (1,800 km), meeting fleet range requirements that were previously only provided by diesel-powered vehicles.
Natural gas trucking is supported by a growing network of over 1,600 public and private CNG/RNG fueling stations along key transportation corridors throughout North America.
Deliveries of the natural gas fuel systems are scheduled to start in the third quarter of 2025.
