Allison Transmission has introduced its innovative, all-new 9-Speed transmission for commercial vehicles in the Middle East, as per a statement. The new 9-Speed fully automatic transmission has been developed based upon Allison’s proven 2,000 Series fully automatic transmission with six speeds, which has covered 200 million kilometres globally. The Allison 9-Speed was designed to meet the demands of commercial vehicles such as an 8-metre midibus by offering more uptime, improved fuel economy, increased performance and reduced maintenance costs in start-stop duty cycles.


With the new 9-Speed transmission, Allison has brought a sustainable transportation option to the Middle East market for applications across a range of medium and heavy-duty commercial vehicles. The introduction of the 9-Speed transmission is yet another milestone for Allison in the Middle East over the past 12 months. It follows the brand’s collaborations with bus manufacturers such as King Long in providing 40 buses to support this year’s Hajj pilgrimage in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and Yutong & Higer in supplying 250 school buses in Qatar with fully automatic transmissions.
