Cummins Inc. are collaborating to upfit and validate Freightliner Cascadia trucks with a Cummins hydrogen fuel cell powertrain for use in North America. Freightliner will leverage Cummins' fourth generation fuel cell powertrain, which provides improved power density, efficiency and durability. The joint effort will support both organizations' goals to reduce emissions across product offerings and operations.

Upon successful validation, the companies intend to have initial units available in 2024 for selected customers.
