INDIANAPOLIS, April 17,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Allison Transmission partnered
with SANY, a leading global heavy equipment manufacturer for the
mining and construction markets, to integrate the Allison 4970
Specialty Series™ (SP) transmission into SANY's STC5000

remote areas of China including
the desert and mountain terrain.
"Our off-highway vehicles require a powerful transmission
designed to meet the challenge of navigating difficult terrain,"
