Allison Transmission and Emergency One formalise e-axle integration

Allison Transmission and Emergency One (UK) will integrate the Allison eGen Power 100D electric axle into Emergency One’s E1 electric fire rescue and emergency vehicle platform, according to the terms of a new memoradum of understanding.

The eGen Power 100D electric axle integrates two high-speed electric motors and a multi-speed transmission, eliminating the need for additional drive shafts and support structures. This allows it to fit between the wheels, leaving critical space for battery storage. It offers continuous power of 529bhp (400kW) and peak output power of 728bhp (550kW),

Allison’s eGen Power 100D is the first in a lineup of electric axles that will be rated for torque, GVW, and varying chassis frame widths.

Some 90% of the units Emergency One sells are equipped with an Allison fully automatic transmission; the 3000 Series is the standard transmission.
