INDIANAPOLIS — Allison Transmission showed off its new facility on the west side of Indianapolis on Monday.
The company held a ribbon cutting outside its new Innovation Center.
The new building will house 300 workers, relocating them into one building so they can better collaborate on new products and test new transmissions to make sure they're ready for the real world.
They can road test vehicles and have them deal with extreme weather conditions when needed.
"This extremely talented team is developing the next generation of commercial vehicle propulsion technology to support Allison's mission of improving the way the world works," said Ryan Milburn, vice president of product engineering.
Allison has a deal with IndyGo, the city's public bus transit system, to roll out some of its new-generation electric hybrid transmissions as IndyGo works to build a cleaner fleet.
