Allison Transmission, which designs and manufactures conventional and electrified vehicle propulsion solutions for medium and heavy-duty commercial vehicles, is set to make a big splash at Bauma 2022 in October.

The company will introduce its new electric axles, Allison eGen Power for construction applications, such as tipper trucks, concrete mixers and heavy duty tractors, at Bauma 2022 (October 24 – 30, Munich, Germany, Hall A3, Stand 414).
