Features may include:

• DASH

Tough, efficient and reliable, Kenworth’s new medium duty trucks maximize the versatility and money-making potential of your business – while offering the driveability of a fine automobile. Exceptional visibility, elegant styling, innovative technology, and true ergonomic fit place the driver comfortably in command.

• COLUMN SHIFTER

For more intuitive vehicle control and superior performance from drivers of all experience levels, spec Kenworth’s new automotive-style column shifter. Mounted on the right side of the steering column, transmission controls include Drive, Neutral, Reverse and Manual modes as well as a selector for the engine brake. The perfect companion for PACCAR’s TX-8 automatic transmission – standard on all Kenworth medium-duty trucks.

• SEATING

Kenworth’s new medium duty models have been optimized for even greater efficiency, convenience and control. Enough room for a crew of three and all their gear – comfortably. Featuring the same premium ergonomic detail you’d find in the World’s Best heavy-duty models.

• DIGITAL DISPLAY

A new, class-leading 7-inch high-definition digital display employs cutting-edge technology to deliver critical operating information to the driver intuitively, efficiently, with minimum distraction. Configurable to show exactly the content you want, when you want it.

• ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL

Reads traffic conditions via front-facing radar sensor and modulates the throttle and the brakes to keep your truck at a pre-set distance from the vehicle in front of it.

• COLLISION MITIGATION

Detects when the truck may be about to collide with another vehicle or object, alerts the driver and takes pre-emptive braking action — when necessary — to avoid or considerably reduce the severity of a crash.

• SIDE OBJECT DETECTION

Constantly monitors a truck’s blind spots and provides the driver with audible and visual alerts when an object or vehicle has entered these zones — invaluable when making a lane change or negotiating tight delivery sites.

• LANE DEPARTURE WARNING

This system continually monitors the truck’s location related to lane markings and automatically emits a distinctive audible warning whenever an unintended lane change (unsignaled) is detected — alerting the driver to make a correction.
