COLUMBUS, Ind. – Cummins Inc. (NYSE: CMI) offers its customers a broad portfolio of power solutions pursuing many paths forward to meet its customers’ and the planet’s evolving needs today and in the future. For the 2026 Advanced Clean Transportation (ACT) Expo, the company is showcasing its 2027 X15 along with its L9N and X15N natural gas engines. Accelera by Cummins will feature its next generation Advanced LFP batteries and 14Xe eAxle. In addition, the 2027 X10 and 2027 X15 will be featured in the ride and drive, joined by a hybrid simulation truck.
“Our customers depend on Cummins to provide solutions that are dependable, efficient and cost effective. This reputation is rooted in our technical expertise and deep understanding of their business needs and is supported by our global sales and service network,” said José Samperio, Vice President, North American On-Highway Business, Cummins Inc.
Forever Rising with Cummins 2027 X15
The 2027 X15 will be displayed with its integrated transmission and aftertreatment system, advancing the company’s flagship heavy‑duty platform. Built on more than 25 years of X15 architecture, the 2027 engine incorporates familiar components and updated controls that support improved fuel efficiency with similar diesel exhaust fluid consumption. The engine also anchors the company’s Forever Rising Tour fleet, where customers can evaluate drivability, integration and performance in real‑world operation.
Natural Gas Engines Power a Broader Ecosystem
Cummins also will feature the X15N and L9N engines to demonstrate the breadth of its natural gas portfolio. Built for heavy-duty and linehaul applications, the X15N provides power and performance while offering a practical path to reduced fuel costs and lower emissions. The L9N is suited for regional haul, refuse and municipal operations. Together, the engines give fleets multiple options across mixed duty cycles and varying infrastructure conditions.
Cummins Clean Fuel Technologies (CCFT) will highlight its newest product: an internally designed and manufactured all‑composite Type 4 CNG tank with a fully carbon‑fiber‑wrapped polymer liner. The tank is engineered to be light weight and for integration into CCFT fuel delivery systems for heavy‑duty trucks. The product incorporates technology designed and shared by NPROXX, Cummins’ composite pressure vessel design and manufacturing entity based in Europe.
Advancing Commercial Vehicle Electrification
Accelera by Cummins will showcase its next generation 14Xe eAxle, its most versatile electrified axle solution to date. The 14Xe delivers improved energy efficiency alongside increased torque, power and voltage capability to support both heavy- and medium-duty applications. Available with either a 2- or 3-speed twin countershaft transmission or 2-speed planetary configuration, the 14Xe has the ability to reduce the need for wheel-end reductions while enabling greater system flexibility across vehicle platforms. When paired with Accelera’s ELFA 3 high-power inverter, the system can also enhance functional safety and cybersecurity for 6×4 tandem, medium-duty and school bus applications.
Accelera will also feature its highly modular Advanced LFP battery platform, designed to support flexibility, long service life and fast charging. With 102 kWh of energy capacity and up to 840V, the platform leverages advanced LFP chemistry and cell-to-pack architecture to deliver improved energy density, enhanced safety and a strong cost competitiveness for commercial vehicle applications.
Enhanced Digital Experience for the Life of Your Vehicle
Cummins provides a full suite of digital capabilities that connect customers’ day-to-day operations directly to the service and maintenance experience using real-time data.
These features, available in Connected Solutions or via participating OEM portals, include remote diagnostics, predictive service insights, over-the-air software updates and digital maintenance tools that help minimize downtime, optimize fleet maintenance and ensure that vehicles are operating with the latest technology directly from Cummins.
These features and capabilities are enabled by Acumen, Cummins’ advanced computing hardware, or an OEM telematics device.
Ride and Drive: Customer Ready Demonstration Vehicles
In the ACT Expo Ride & Drive, Cummins will feature two vehicles from its Forever Rising Tour: one equipped with the 2027 X15 and another showcasing the new Cummins X10 mid-bore diesel platform designed for vocational, transit, pickup-and-delivery and regional haul operations. The third vehicle, which has been in service with Walmart since November 2025, is a demonstration of both companies’ commitment to advancing hybrid technology development. As part of this effort, Cummins and Walmart have collaborated in evaluating hybrid powertrain configurations under real world operating conditions using a development vehicle that can simulate multiple hybrid architectures without physical hardware changes. The hybrid simulation truck will be showcased publicly for the first time in the ride and drive.
About the Hybrid Simulation Platform
Cummins and Walmart are jointly testing and refining hybrid configurations using engines, components and controls from both Cummins and its zero-emissions business, Accelera by Cummins. Walmart has been operating the vehicle across a range of routes and duty cycles, validating system controls and accumulating mileage to evaluate performance in day-to-day service.
