Surprises me to see a Cummin's engine. I thought they were big on integrated powertrains.

Together with Navistar they are supposed to be working on a new engine for north America.

I know nothing about their trucks, but I do enjoy my VW car and SUV. Unfortunately I cannot buy any more. My dealer put their hoist through the floor of my wifes new Jetta when it was in for an oil change, and neither them or VW Canada would do anything about it. So they lost me as a customer.

Going back to 2007, the original big engine in the Constellations was the Navistar 9.3-litre HT570 produced by MWM in Brazil with a Volkswagen-branded valve cover.
