“Allison has established a successful relationship with BELL over the past 25 years and we look forward to continuing our longstanding partnership through the integration of our latest propulsion solution for BELL’s evaluation,” said Kartik Ramanan, Executive Director, Global Off-Highway Sales, Customer Support and Service Engineering at Allison Transmission. “Purpose built for global construction and mining markets, TerraTran leverages Allison’s more than 65 years of experience moving earth, minerals and precious metals around the world where Allison Automatics have proven themselves in some of the most challenging conditions imaginable.”
Allison’s TerraTran has maximum power capability of up to 800 horsepower, and torque capability up to 3200 newton meters, dependent upon the application in which it is deployed. TerraTran also features seven forward and two reverse speeds. With the additional fast reverse, TerraTran delivers improved productivity and optimized vocational efficiency.
