International Truck Launches HX^™ Series

International Truck recently launched the International^® HX™ Series, a new line of Class 8 premium vocational trucks designed to deliver the strength and endurance required for the severe service industry. This is the first all-new vehicle introduced by International Truck since 2010.

“The launch of the HX Series is an opportunity for International to recapture a leading position in the vocational market – a segment we previously led,” said Troy Clarke, president and CEO, Navistar, Inc. “The launch of the HX Series underscores our commitment to innovation, our dedication to uptime and our position as a leader within the industry.”

The new truck series, unveiled at the World of Concrete trade show last month, will replace the International^® PayStar^® model.

“The design of our new HX Series is based on in-depth discussions with leading users of severe service applications,” said Bill Kozek, president, Truck and Parts, Navistar, Inc. “Each of the 4 models in the series has been engineered to deliver unmatched performance for the most punishing jobs, while making operators more productive.”

International is taking orders for this vehicle immediately. The first vehicles will be delivered this spring. HX Series trucks will be offered, with both set-forward and set-back front axle models in either short or long hood, depending on the application.

The HX520, a 120” BBC Set-forward Axle Truck or Tractor with primary vocations including heavy haul tractor, construction dump and platform stake/crane, will be formally unveiled at Truck World in Toronto in April.

The HX515 and the HX615 models are powered by Navistar^® N13 engines, while the HX520 and HX620 models offer the Cummins^® ISX15 engine.
