marketplace ISX 12-liter for regional, vocational hauls The ISX12, built for regional hauls and vocational and specialty applications, uses components of the big-bore ISX15 to offer more power and bet- ter fuel economy than its predecessor, the ISX11.9, the company says. An enhanced cooled exhaust gas recirculation system, a single variable-geometry turbocharger, the proprietary XPI fuel system and Cummins aftertreat- ment system with selective catalytic reduction technology are borrowed from the ISX15. The engine is designed for rigorous duty cycles, including dump and mixer trucks and refuse applications. The engine's horsepower and torque ratings are appropriate for regional haul and daycab operations in Class 8 trucks. The engine's standard horsepower ratings range from 310 to 425. Production will begin in March.
