OSLO, Norway, Aug. 12, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Hexagon Agility, a business of Hexagon Composites and the world's leading provider of compressed natural gas (CNG/RNG) fuel systems, has received an order for fuel systems for 100 heavy-duty trucks to be operated by Trayecto, the largest trucking company in Mexico. This deployment is a major milestone for the region and made possible through collaboration with Kenworth Mexicana. All of these new trucks will feature Cummins' X15N engine, coupled with Hexagon Agility's largest available onboard CNG fuel systems. This configuration for Trayecto will deliver the largest hauling capacity achieved to date by commercial CNG trucks. "This is a groundbreaking moment for clean trucking in Mexico, where fleets have long-awaited access to a viable alternative to diesel for heavy-duty, long-haul applications," said Eric Bippus, Chief Commercial Officer for Hexagon Agility. "We are grateful that our proven fuel systems can be part of a winning combination to bring more affordable and cleaner commercial transportation to Trayecto." Natural gas goes head-to-head with diesel With heavy vehicle weights and demanding routes, the combination of the new game-changing X15N engine and Hexagon Agility's fuel systems enables these trucks to have a driving range of over 1000 kilometers while hauling very heavy loads - critical for maintaining operational efficiency. With power ratings up to 500 hp (~370 kW) and torque up to 1850 lb.-ft (~2500 Nm), X15N powered trucks meet the demands of long-haul heavy-duty fleet operators, delivering performance that matches diesel while reducing emissions. Timing Deliveries of the fuel systems are scheduled to start in the third quarter of 2025.
