Under the strategic partnership announced earlier this year between Cummins and Daimler Truck AG, Cummins will invest in the further development of the medium-duty engine platform and its global production and delivery starting in the second half of the decade for Daimler Trucks & Buses, the companies announced Thursday, As a result, Daimler Truck AG will no longer invest its own funds in the further development of its medium-duty engines for the Euro VII 2025 emissions standard, which is expected to be Europe’s final step in tightening emissions regulations as the continent works toward phasing out fossil fuels entirely.
