2022 A26 Walkaround

The International® A26 engine is still one of the lightest, most powerful and quietest 13-liter engines out there. Our most recent updates provide increases in performance, durability, and maintenance. This gives you more uptime, better vehicle performance and improved total cost of ownership - delivering over 4% gains in fuel economy, from previous generation. Check out our walk-around video for more detail.

Revamped the A26 for 2022 but 5 months later, launch a completely new engine. Looking forward to the S13!

It’s UPTIME BAbee!

One thing I liked out the older A26s is that they didn't have active torque management, whereas our newer X15 trucks do. The A26 gave me the power when I asked for it, not when some software engineer in Cupertino deemed me worthy of it. What the software people don't seem to understand is, sometimes the extra power really matters, even if it's not just for stall prevention. Say you're charging up a hill and set to overtake another, slower truck. A quarter mile behind, a Duramax and a Powerstroke are sword fighting over who gets to sleep with the other guy's wife, but you'll get past before they catch up. But then HAL9000 cuts your power in half, and suddenly you're "that guy" in the passing lane flying formation with the log truck. There's nothing I despise more than automation in trucks. Insoend so much time trying to figure out and predict how the radar crash sensor and the street sign reader and the transmission and now the engine are going to try to kill me. Just... let me drive. Please.

Have previously owned several different heavy and light duty International trucks. My experience is that they are extremely reliable and relatively low maintenance vehicles. Retired many years ago so not familiar with what they’re producing today.

Will there be a marine version of this engine ?

[@DesertOkiePam1]

Looking forward to getting mine. Been ordered and waiting since early June 2021. Hopefully getting built in the next week or two. The date has been pushed back multiple times.

[@heavyhaultrucker]

I too ordered LT with A26 515hp in June 21 and it has been delayed 3 times Nov Dec Jan...final delivery notice was Feb 20th that too is out the window now we do not have reply from the reps at the plant on why it has not been released to truckmovers

[@DesertOkiePam1]

@@heavyhaultrucker About the same as my story. Last estimate was sometime in the first quarter of this year. Salesman checked last week and the build date was scheduled for March 1st.

[@DesertOkiePam1]

Now it's built, but waiting for several interior pieces they didn't have.

[@glackaglack1534]

Got it yet?

[@DesertOkiePam1]

Yes. Came in three days short of a year from when I ordered it. I've had it in the shop for more than five weeks since June. Replaced the turbo and actuator, then finally got it straightened out when two engineers with a laptop came out and deleted some bad code in the ECM. Seems to be doing okay now.

As much as I dislike emissions equipped modern diesels, it sure is nice to breathe clean air when stuck in heavy stop & go traffic. The EPA could make this equipment more bearable by not mandating a derate everytime a code is thrown. Give us a check engine light and time to arrange service on my terms and I would embrace this technology. Either way, I'm sure thus will be a terrific engine underneath all that emissions crap.

[@markclark5770]

The clean air you speak of was already accomplished with the electronic engine when tuned and operating properly. The dpf and scr is unnecessary unreliable overkill. The regeneration process is dirty filter media needs to be manufactured and disposed of harming the environment. Long term effects of being exposed to burning DEF is unknown or repressed from the public

[@R4BY4ORD]

You really don't have a clue as how to how this all works together to clean the air. As a 22 year retired International tech I know all the facts.

[@markclark5770]

@@R4BY4ORD I have been an owner operator for 30 yrs doing most of my own maintenance . I have been to diesel college. So as for not having A clue and A diploma. The emissions systems on diesels are over the top disasters .

[@johnphillips222]

Is this a 12.4L engine actually 13L?

[@Infinitrium]

13 liter class, yes

If you not going to give any recommendation please don’t write any else people don’t want to heart than any recommendations

Hi

[@may_laytrucker3127]

This won't last 400 k

[@cannonnikon4023]

Probably like a maxxforce piece of shit as well as the electronic DT466E

[@antor.j.medrano]

A26 & power in the same sentence is very laughable. No power going up hill.

[@jtmartin8445]

Y’all made this engine worse than the maxxforce 13
