Engineering the world’s most advanced natural gas engines and vehicles

It is one thing to work with revolutionary products and technologies but it is even more exciting to be part of the challenge to reshape a standard product to create the future of an industry. Westport is the leader in creating breakthrough technologies in natural gas engines, vehicles and fuel system components. Westport imagines, builds, demonstrates and commercializes technologies that provide environmental and economic solutions to customers, while delivering best-class performance and operational characteristics for clean, sustainable and commercially viable transportation.

 Westport pioneered high pressure direct injection technology, Westport™ HPDI 1.0, which was a ground-breaking product and great success in opening up the heavy duty natural gas trucking industry. In this film, we look at Westport’s next generation of technologies, including Westport™ HPDI 2.0, advanced spark-ignited natural gas technology, and novel conformable CNG and cryogenic LNG fuel storage technologies.

Westport is committed to giving tomorrow’s visionaries license to explore—by designing the most advanced natural gas engines the world has ever seen. Not just for cars and trucks. But for any vehicle that carries a payload, crosses the water, or thunders down the tracks.

Driving with Bendix® Wingman® Fusion™

This video provides basic guidelines for driving a vehicle equipped with the Bendix® Wingman® Fusion™ collision mitigation system – the flagship driver assistance system by Bendix Commercial Vehicle Systems LLC. It demonstrates how Bendix Wingman Fusion works, the potential situations it can help mitigate, what to expect when using the technology, and what the system can and cannot address. Wingman Fusion combines a proven suite of Bendix advanced safety technologies – radar, camera, and the vehicle’s brakes – into a comprehensive driver assistance system more powerful than any other system or combination of safety technologies in the commercial vehicle market today.

With multiple sensors sharing and confirming situational data, Wingman Fusion makes possible stationary vehicle braking, as well as overspeed alert and action. More and better data, combined with powerful new computing, also unlocks new levels of performance, significantly improving existing features. Built on the Bendix® ESP® full-stability system, Wingman Fusion helps drivers mitigate rollover and loss of control situations, as well as rear-end collision situations. Designed and delivered by Bendix, the North American leader in active vehicle safety and braking technologies, Wingman Fusion is available to all major North American manufacturers of Class 8 trucks for integration into their vehicle platforms.

The Wingman Fusion system DOES NOT replace the need for skilled, alert drivers exercising safe driving practices, nor the need for ongoing, comprehensive driver training. System performance may be limited by poor braking system maintenance practices and improper tire maintenance. Information here is subject to change without notice. Learn more.
