Cummins Inc. has announced two enhancements for the ISX15 engine: an extended diesel particulate filter (DPF) ash cleaning interval and the Encore Xtra protection plan. According to Cummins, these will increase customers’ equipment residual value and reduce the total cost of ownership (TCO).
“Cummins is dedicated to customer-focused innovation in everything we do,” said Amy Boerger, Cummins’ vice president of sales and support. “These actions are not only a testament of our confidence in our products, but also a commitment to our brand promise of dependability.”
Cummins’ 2016 ISX15 is capable of an extended DPF ash cleaning interval reaching up to 500,000 miles for conventional linehaul applications with fuel economy greater than 5.5 miles per gallon.
The Encore Xtra protection plan is available for 2010 and 2013 ISX12 and ISX15 engines. The plan must be registered by 6 years/650,000 miles and after any current extended coverage has expired. Encore Xtra is available to the first owner of the engine, not just used buyers.
