Hexagon Agility to deliver fuel systems for X15N natural gas-powered trucks in major Mexican rollout
OSLO, Norway, Aug. 12, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Hexagon Agility, a business of Hexagon Composites and the world's leading provider of compressed natural gas (CNG/RNG) fuel systems, has received an order for fuel systems for 100 heavy-duty trucks to be operated by Trayecto, the largest trucking company in Mexico. This deployment is a major milestone for the region and made possible through collaboration with Kenworth Mexicana.
