Kenworth and Dana say they are collaborating on electric powertrain development for medium-duty Kenworth battery electric vehicles. An example of that collaboration, a Kenworth K270E battery electric truck, was on display at the 2020 Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas NV. The zero-emissions Kenworth K270E cabover on exhibit at CES is equipped with Dana-designed e-Powertrain system that is fully integrated and upfitted to the Kenworth chassis. Configured as a direct drive system, the vehicle utilizes a Spicer® Electrified e-propulsion system, and a standard Dana drive axle and driveshaft.
