Navistar makes Tremec 10-speed transmission available for International ProStar

Sep 24, 2014

Navistar announced this week it will offer the Tremec 10-speed manual transmission in its International ProStar models equipped with the company’s 13-liter engine. Tremec offers a wide range of high torque-to-weight ratios designed for weight sensitive over-the-road and city applications, Navistar says. The pairing will also maximize payload for applications such as bulk haul, the company says.

Navistar already offers Tremec transmissions as an option in its ProStar with Cummins ISX 15.
