Cummins purposes at Agritechnica 2025

Following last year’s edition, which focused on hydrogen, Cummins will use Agritechnica 2025 to relaunch the Diesel Cycle applied to its engine range for the off-highway sector.

Cummins in AG, from 1919 to 2025

Cummins’ first engine for farming equipment was released in 1919 and launched at the Indiana State Fair as a 6-horsepower hand-cranked oil burner that was the debut of their historic Hvid model series.

Alongside its 4.5L, Cummins will showcase its legendary B6.7 and Next Gen X15 Off-Highway engines at Agritechnica 2025. 

The new Cummins 4.5L structural engine is a production ready offering that is being produced at their Darlington Engine Plant in the United Kingdom.

With power ratings that range from 130-160 horsepower (95 kilowatts – 120 kilowatts), the 4.5 Diesel liters engine aims to power tractors—whereby substantial low-end torque and transient performance benefits are coupled with efficient fuel consumption. Additionally, the 4.5L is available with multiple aftertreatment system options to ensure global emissions compliance and machine integration advantages.

The Cummins Flex Module aftertreatment system will be showcased with their 4.5L and is designed for integration flexibility. Its DOC and DPF can be positioned under the tractor bonnet, above the engine, while its SCR can be positioned vertically to minimize height. The UL2 dosing system offers proven high-flow performance and simplified interface requirements while passive regeneration minimizes the need for preventive maintenance.

Also on display, the B6.7 is the most produced engine in Cummins’ product portfolio and known for its wide range of application fit and rugged dependability and performance.  Recently made available in Claas Evion combine harvesters and Versatile’s (BVI) tractor, Cummins’ B6.7 has millions of engines operating across dozens of applications in the field.

Also the Cummins’ Next Gen X15 Off-Highway engine will be on display at Agritechnica 2025. 

Available in a variety of power ratings, the X15 Off-Highway engine promises agribusiness customers lower operating costs, simplified integration, and digital capabilities that can integrate with an OEM gateway or third-party telematics service provider. 

As part of Cummins’ fuel agnostic HELM platform, the company displayed the X15 Off-Highway engine with a hydrogen head at the Bauma trade fair in Germany in April of this year. In addition to hydrogen, other fuel options customers can choose from include diesel, and biofuels such as HVO.

Attendees will have the opportunity to see the Meritor MOX E8, an axle that is purpose-built for agricultural tractors, harvesters, and bailers operating in the toughest global conditions.

Common components like axle housings and carriers are paired with tailored options—including drum or disc brakes, application-specific gearing, and multiple wheel-end configurations.
