Recently, a batch of buses equipped with Cummins X11 Euro VI engines were successfully delivered to the main manufacturer and are about to be exported to the European market. As of now, the cumulative export orders of X11 Euro VI engines in the bus market have exceeded 1,000 units.
It is learned that after arriving in Europe, these vehicles equipped with Cummins X11 Euro 6 engines will be used in the intercity transportation operation of ALSA buses in Spain.
Spanish Alsa bus
One of the leading bus operators in Europe, it not only operates domestic routes throughout Spain but also offers international routes connecting over 300 destinations in 16 countries including Europe and Morocco.
Advance into the European market
Precise power customization
The European market has always been the focus of fierce competition among the world's leading bus brands. Moreover, the Euro VI standard sets extremely strict emission limits for nitrogen oxides (NOx) and particulate matter (PM).
As an important partner of Chinese bus enterprises, Cummins has been constantly innovating over the years, enriching its bus product matrix, and has launched domestically produced Euro VI engines. With its outstanding emission performance, excellent reliability and significant economic advantages, Cummins has helped Chinese automakers enter the high-end European market, competing on the same stage with international bus brands from Europe, America, Japan and South Korea, and achieving a series of breakthroughs.
The X11 Euro VI engine delivered this time is a flagship product developed by Cummins based in China and targeting the global market. At the beginning of product development, Cummins gathered engineering teams from China, the UK and the US, fully integrated global R&D resources, and closely collaborated with domestic OEMs. In response to the unique needs of buses, it custom-developed air conditioning systems, dual 240A generator wheel systems, large-capacity metal flat-bottomed oil pans, etc., significantly enhancing the NVH performance of the entire vehicle and effectively reducing its energy consumption.
Outstanding quality service
Empower Chinese bus partners
Since entering the European market in 2020, the X11 Euro VI engine has won high recognition from users with its outstanding performance and reliable quality.
In Israel, Spain, Portugal, Croatia, Cyprus, Iceland, the United Kingdom, Ireland, Greece, Turkey, Australia and other places, buses equipped with X11 engines are active in multiple key fields such as intercity transportation and tourist passenger transport. With efficient power output and reliable operation performance, they provide strong support for local transportation development.
In the journey of expanding overseas markets, Cummins, with its profound technical heritage, has been deeply cooperating with Chinese bus manufacturers. From precisely interpreting the strict standards of regulatory certification, to meticulously refining the outstanding performance of engine performance, and then to deeply integrating the performance optimization of the entire vehicle power chain, we have joined hands with Chinese OEMs to create more market-competitive Chinese bus products.
In addition, relying on its globally extensive service network, Cummins has also carried out all-round collaboration with Chinese bus enterprises in multiple key areas such as service network construction, personnel training, spare parts supply, and service process optimization, providing a solid guarantee for Chinese buses to travel smoothly around the world.
