Core Technology Supports Strong "Genesis" Skills
The "Genesis" truck cooperation project is in line with the United States' famous "Super Truck" project. In 2010, the U.S. Department of Energy announced an investment of 284 million U.S. dollars to study advanced technologies to improve the fuel economy/transportation efficiency of heavy-duty trucks in the United States. This project is called super trucks. Through the selection of solutions from different companies, the U.S. Department of Energy eventually selected four companies to participate in super trucks, namely Cummins, North American Daimler, Navistar, and Volvo.
In early 2014, the Cummins Super Truck first achieved the goal of 75% improvement in vehicle transportation efficiency under actual road conditions. On February 18, 2014, when U.S. President Barack Obama announced the next phase of the heavy fuel truck fuel efficiency and greenhouse gas emissions regulatory timetable, the super truck appeared at the venue, signifying that Cummins won the Super Truck project.
