Rush Enterprises and Cummins have signed a letter of intent for Cummins to acquire a 50 percent interest in Momentum Fuel Technologies, the industry’s first complete CNG fuel system solution. The joint venture is expected to be finalized later this year and will combine the strength of Momentum’s CNG fuel delivery systems with Cummins’ powertrain expertise to produce Cummins-branded natural gas fuel delivery systems for the North American market.
The partnership will provide customers with expanded and improved parts and service support for both the fuel delivery system and engine through the combined networks of Rush Truck Centers dealerships and Cummins distributors – more than 250 certified service, parts and support locations throughout the U.S. and Canada.
The environmental benefits of natural gas combined with upcoming emissions requirements will drive continued growth in natural gas vehicles for the foreseeable future.
