On November 5, 2024, Cummins grandly released the new generation of F2.5 and F3.0 light engine platforms at the Wuhan Cummins East Asia R&D Center. The new generation of light engine platform released this time not only meets the regulations on National VI B and the four-stage fuel consumption regulations, but also achieves a comprehensive improvement in technological innovation, reliability, fuel saving and power, injecting new vitality into the light truck industry!

Innovative technology brings an upgraded experience

Cummins’ new generation of F2.5 and F3.0 light engine platforms have shown many highlights in terms of technological innovation.

Unique Smart Brain (CBM2.0) technology achieves the optimized integration of engine and after-processing through closed-loop control of thermal management and emissions, thereby accurately controlling fuel consumption and emissions, achieving a win-win situation in fuel economy and environmental protection. The technology also provides power chain integrated control technology, with intelligent modules such as predictive cruising and predictive maximum speed management. These modules can optimize the driving experience and further reduce cruising fuel consumption.

The new platform adopts a high-explosion pressure design, and the peak pressure in the cylinder is increased from 165 bar to 200 bar, which helps to fully burn fuel and improve combustion efficiency; the engine weight is 266 kg (F2.5) and 274 kg (F3.0) respectively. The lightweight design reduces the weight of the vehicle and helps to reduce fuel consumption. Through the precise coordination of smart brain technology and the IAT air intake throttle valve, precise control of fuel consumption is achieved, and the fuel consumption of the vehicle can be reduced by 15%.

In terms of reliability and durability, the new platform engine has undergone 25,000 hours of bench test and more than 3 million kilometers of road tests. It has also undergone multiple rounds of strict high-temperature, high altitude, low temperature and other extreme working conditions. The total duration reaches 1,200 hours of ultra-explosive pressure experimental verification ensures its excellent reliability and durability.

In terms of remote intelligent services, the new generation of Cummins remote intelligent service system has been integrated to improve attendance through active service and remote diagnosis, further enhancing the reliability and maintenance convenience of the engine.

The improvement in power is also a highlight of the new platform engine!

In addition, Cummins also matches the light engine with straight-tube after-treatment, which is more conducive to user maintenance and maintenance and makes the operating mileage longer. At the same time, Foton Cummins provides users with a wide range of customized options, including customized support for accessories systems, digital systems, braking systems, power chain integrated control modules and oil change cycles, and even the power curve can be customized.

The technical characteristics of Cummins’ new platform reflect its profound background and forward-looking vision in engine technology innovation. It not only meets increasingly stringent emission regulations, but also provides users with more efficient, reliable and economical power solutions. These technical features will help Cummins continue to maintain a leading position in the light commercial vehicle market and bring users a better car experience.
