International Truck and Engine Debuts Special Edition MXT and Showcases Production Version MXT 4x4 at Chicago Auto Show.

Company Celebrates 100 Years of Trucking Innovation

CHICAGO -- International Truck and Engine, a Navistar company, is marking the 100th anniversary of its first truck by unleashing a truck that is re-defining image pickup trucks. The production model International([R]) MXT[TM] 4x4 pickup and a new special edition, the International([R]) MXT[TM] Limited, are being showcased starting today at the 2007 Chicago Auto Show.

Geared toward those who want to make a powerful statement and demand exclusivity, the International MXT provides a balanced blend of head-turning looks and jaw-dropping performance. Its sleek, yet imposing presence gives the MXT the boldest appearance on the road. With a 300-horsepower International([R]) V-8 engine, 530 lb. ft. of torque and a chassis capable of towing 7 th tons, the MXT offers performance to be reckoned with. In fact, the MXT stands out from the crowd with a unique combination of power, styling and 4x4 capabilities. It is a perfect compliment to International's other pickup trucks, the International([R]) RXT([R]) Hauler and International([R]) CXT([R]).

International's first truck was built in 1907 at McCormick Works in Chicago. One hundred years later, International is unveiling its latest version at McCormick Place in the same city where it all began.

"From International's first truck 100 years ago to the new International MXT, we've manufactured trucks that have been on the leading edge of innovation," said Dee Kapur, president of International Truck and Engine's Truck Group. "The International MXT symbolizes our commitment to challenging convention and building quality trucks for an expanding number of markets worldwide. It is an example of the experience and ingenuity that International puts into every truck we design and manufacture."

The MXT was originally displayed at the Chicago Auto Show in 2005 as a concept vehicle. Since then, the MXT has undergone extensive engineering and testing to provide the comfort and amenities of a luxury interior with a stylish, visually arresting exterior. In fact, the presence of the MXT at last year's Chicago Auto Show generated a waiting list of potential buyers for the MXT. Those buyers, and new potential buyers, no longer have to wait now that the MXT is available for order.

* Engine: International([R]) 6.0L V8 Diesel

In addition to the production version MXT and the MXT Limited, International is showcasing the International RXT Hauler, a fifth wheel version of the RXT that can better accommodate trailers for equestrian, boating, RV and motorsports markets, and the International CXT, the world's largest production pickup truck. The MXT, RXT, and CXT form the International([R]) XT Family of trucks. The CXT and RXT Hauler are powered by MaxxForce(TM) diesel engines, reflecting the company's strong history of leadership in mid-range diesel engines. The diesel engines include EPA-compliant emissions standards that keep the exhaust below federal limits. Today's diesel engines use 60 percent less fuel per mile than comparable gasoline or natural gas engines and are delivering increasing levels of environmental performance.

With the International XT Family, the company is enhancing its target for the "image truck market" - customers who purchase trucks to create an image about themselves and their business. Built on commercial truck platforms, with luxurious interior options like leather seats, they provide the power, performance and prestige that many truck customers want.

The starting estimated MSRP of the MXT is $89,500. The MXT Limited will be available for sale later in 2007. For more information on the MXT, RXT Hauler and CXT, visit www.InternationalTrucks.com/MXT.
