(RTTNews) - Cummins Inc. (CMI) and truck manufacturer Isuzu Motors Ltd. announced Monday the launch of a new 6.7-liter engine jointly developed by the two companies, designed for use in Isuzu's new medium-duty truck lineup.

The "Isuzu DB6A" will power on-highway truck applications built for the Japanese market and will be available for the Asia Pacific markets and other global markets later this year. The engine will be assembled at Isuzu's engine plant in Tochigi Prefecture, Japan.
