Hexagon Agility to supply CNG fuel systems for 100-truck order

Clean fuel solutions supplier Hexagon Agility announced it has received an order to deliver compressed natural gas (CNG) fuel systems for 100 heavy-duty trucks to be operated by Trayecto, the largest trucking company in Mexico. Each vehicle will feature Hexagon Agility’s largest available onboard CNG fueling system as well as the Cummins X15N natural gas engine.

The deployment is made possible through collaboration with Kenworth Mexicana, which is now offering CNG-powered trucks featuring the Cummins X15N platform in Mexico and Latin America.

The trucks’ onboard CNG fuel system enables a driving range of over 1,000 km (depending on payload and terrain). When fueled with renewable natural gas (RNG), Hexagon Agility said trucks equipped with these fuels systems and the Cummins X15N engine can achieve carbon-negative operations, aiding fleets working to meet climate targets and regulatory requirements.

“This is a watershed moment for clean trucking in this region of the world, 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 and many other companies.”

The order from Trayecto follows a recently announced order from a leading American consumer goods manufacturer for 60 natural gas trucks – the second fleet to place a major order for X15N-powered trucks in North America, following a pre-deployment order from UPS in 2024.
