Allison Transmission, a global leader in the field of commercial vehicle and specialty vehicle propulsion solutions, has established an unshakable leadership position with its exceptional technology and spirit of innovation. Since its founding in 1915, Allison has undergone a century of development, evolving from the initial Indianapolis Speedway Team Company to the world’s largest manufacturer of medium and heavy-duty fully automatic transmissions for commercial vehicles, a journey filled with transformation and growth.
The history of Allison Transmission can be traced back to the early 20th century, founded by James A. Allison to support his racing endeavors at the Indianapolis 500. Over time, the company transitioned and began to develop transmissions, eventually spinning off this business into Allison Transmission in 1946. Today, Allison Transmission has become the world’s leading manufacturer of fully automatic transmissions and hybrid propulsion systems, with its products specified by over 300 vehicle manufacturers and widely used in various market segments, including buses, garbage trucks, fire engines, construction, distribution, military, and special applications.
Allison Transmission’s product line is diverse, including 13 transmission product lines and approximately 100 product models, such as the 1000/2000 Series™, 3000 Series™, 4000 Series™, and more. These products cover not only commercial road vehicles but also off-road and defense vehicles with fully automatic transmissions, as well as electric hybrid and fully electric systems. In addition, the company sells branded replacement parts, support equipment, aluminum casting parts, and other products required for the installation base of vehicles using its solutions to original equipment manufacturers, distributors, and the U.S. government.
The success of Allison Transmission is not only reflected in its financial achievements but also in its strategic cooperation and innovation capabilities. The company has established a strategic partnership with the global construction machinery manufacturer LiuGong to serve the Indonesian mining industry, highlighted by the display of the LiuGong 70-ton DW105A wide-body dump truck equipped with the Allison 4800 Wide Body Dump Series transmission. In the field of environmentally friendly propulsion technology, Allison Transmission has also made significant progress, successfully testing the Hyundai Xcient fuel cell truck equipped with the Allison 4000 Series™ fully automatic transmission, demonstrating its leadership in the field of eco-friendly technology.
The expansion of global business is another key factor in the success of Allison Transmission. The company designs, manufactures, and markets its products worldwide, serving customers through a network of approximately 1,600 independent distributors and dealers. This global business layout allows Allison Transmission to better serve the needs of customers in different regions and also provides rich market feedback for the innovation and improvement of its products.
