The latest engine can easily be scaled up to BS 5 emission norms and beyond, it said.

He added that these new engine systems will be powered by Cummins' best-in-class technology and will ensure higher uptime, better total cost of ownership, easy installation and cleaner emissions and, hence, will deliver superior value to end-users.

Cummins India Vice-President (Engine and Component Business) Anjali Pandey said this new four-cylinder, 4.5-litre CEV BS 4-compliant engine system will further help Cummins enhance its presence in the construction segment while meeting stringent emissions standards and providing value to the customers.

Globally, more than one million Euro-6/BS-6 equivalent and higher emission vehicles are running with Cummins' engine and after-treatment system, the company said.
