Performance

The new exterior allows for increased aerodynamism, meaning you are able to make the most of every mile from every gallon and increase your fuel savings beginning on day one.

“Wind-cheating features begin up-front with a narrower hood and grille design that cuts neatly through the air. A-pillar turning vanes create less wake next to side windows and smooths airflow around the cab. Integrated front air dams, redesigned chassis fairings, and optional 28-inch side extenders work in tandem to keep airflow tight to the truck. Tandem axle fairings combine with new wind-slick wheel covers to reduce turbulence around the rear wheels and on to the trailer.” (Kenworth Truck Company)

Other interior upgrades include a 15-inch digital display – an industry-first at this size, and the Next Gen Smartwheel – putting the crucial vehicle controls at hand.

Technologies include adaptive cruise control, collision mitigation, side object detection, lane departure warning, lane keep assist and torque-assisted steering. These Best-In-Class innovations are keeping you safer, and therefore, keeping you on the road more often.

New interior colors are also available. Signature Diamond and Vantage motifs are available in tan and gray. Diamond interiors feature Madrona-colored door inserts and wood grain accents.
