"Greetings Fellow Enthusiasts,
I’m Steve Sanders, Program Leader for Cummins Repower[emoji769] – the new crate engine business of Cummins Inc, responsible for bringing the R2.8 Turbo Diesel to market.
First of all, thank you for expressing your interest in the R2.8 Turbo Diesel by submitting our online notification form. Your voice brought this program to life and I am grateful for that. The entire Cummins team is thrilled with the overwhelmingly positive response from enthusiasts like you from all over the world.
Every day we are asked, “When can I buy the R2.8?” and, “How much will it cost?” While we aren’t quite ready to announce those details yet, I assure you our team is working tirelessly to perfect our R2.8 Turbo Diesel package based on your feedback, in order to live up to your expectations for Cummins quality.
As explained in the formal announcement of Cummins Repower at the 2016 SEMA Show, our start of sales date is dependent upon emissions certification. We will only launch once we can provide customers clear guidance as to which vehicle vintage and weight class our certifications will cover. Cummins Repower’s most important objective is to offer enjoyable, reliable and compliant engines to keep your Repowers on the road or trail for years to come, and eliminate the confusion at the license branch and smog referee.
I have had the distinct pleasure of driving many of our test vehicles thousands of miles in many different configurations over the past several years, and I plan to be first in line to buy one. When it comes to what you would expect from a Cummins, the R2.8 does not disappoint – giving any qualifying vehicle a turbo-charged diesel breath of new life.
We recently showcased a few Cummins R2.8 test vehicles at this year’s Easter Jeep Safari and Overland Expo West. In additon, we were recently featured on Xtreme Off-Road on Power Nation TV. Watch the episode where the R2.8 Turbo Diesel is installed into a wildly modified Land Rover Defender 90 by host Ian Johnson.
In the meantime, keep planning your builds, posting on social media using the hashtag #CumminsRepower, and keep the questions coming.
Very Respectfully,
Steve Sanders
Business Development Manager
