Allison Transmission has added Load-Based Shift Scheduling to its MY09 Allison 1000-, 2000-, 3000-, and 4000-series models. The company says it selects between economy and performance shift modes based on the vehicle’s payload and the grade on which it’s operating. The enhancement, which comes standard, will improve fuel mileage while heavily loaded, according to the company.
