Navistar announced that its International WorkStar vocational trucks will be available with the company’s 13L MaxxForce engine with selective catalytic reduction (SCR) emissions technology.
It is the fourth International heavy-duty model to switch to SCR since Navistar announced it would install the aftertreatment technology in its vehicles.
