Founded in Columbus, Indiana, in 1919, Cummins was among the first to see
the commercial potential of an unproven engine technology invented two
decades earlier by Rudolph Diesel. Today, Cummins is a multinational Fortune 500
company, a technology leader in the diesel engine market whose employees
work relentlessly to provide cutting-edge solutions to the increasingly difficult
challenge of producing clean-running engines.
The ISF 2.8 turbo-diesel is the first light commercial vehicle engine to be
produced by Cummins. The FOTON Tunland has been specifically designed with
this latest addition to Cummins legendary range of diesel engines in mind. With
high torque and power for its size and weight, the light-duty ISF 2.8 turbo-diesel
meets stringent worldwide on-highway and off-highway emission standards,
including Euro IV and above. The ISF 2.8 turbo-diesel produces 360Nm of torque,
has an average fuel consumption of 8L per 100kms, accelerates from 0 to
100km/h in 13.5 seconds, and has a maximum speed of 160km/h.
FOTON & CUMMINS: JOINING FORCES FOR WORLD-CLASS DELIVERY
Established in 2008, the Beijing FOTON Cummins Engine co., Ltd (BFCEC)
is a 50:50 Joint Venture between FOTON and Cummins, set up to produce
light-duty diesel engines. The total project investment is over R3 billion. BFCEC is
Cummins largest production base, and one of the largest and most technologically
sophisticated production bases of light-duty diesel engines in China, with an
annual capacity of 400,000 units.
A LEGEND IN THE MAKING
With three years of R&D behind it, the FOTON Tunland is the next-generation
of multi-purpose pick-up, engineered with sustainability in mind. Backed
locally by Bidvest and Imperial, and powered by the extremely reliable ISF
2.8 turbo-diesel engine, the FOTON Tunland has real backbone, delivering
class-leading torque, and, with its state-of-the-art hyper-strong chassis,
can load up to 1 tonne of goods and tow up to 2.25 tonnes with ease.
The FOTON Tunland is larger and more comfortable than the current market
leading bakkies, has full 4-wheel drive for exceptional off-road
performance and is perfect for individuals looking for a vehicle that can
be used for both work and play. Professionals and organisations looking
for a flexible transport solution with off-road capabilities need not look
