International Traton S13 driveline

Moderators please move if not the right location, I remember Or misremember there used to be a “fleet” category.

This is an informative video on the new International/Traton group S13 powertrain. Simplified modular engine and transmission and moved as far from the cooled EGR as they could. I like the move towards removing complications and tubing connections.

Hopefully this puts IH back on the map as an engine manufacturer. The MaxxForce engines among the other smaller displacement engines pretty much ruined their reputation.

They used a page out of Volvo's playbook on the rear gearing and cruise rpms(called downspeeding). It's a proven method as long as the drivetrain can handle it.

Hopefully they didn't get too "creative" with emissions since VW was involved.
