Truck product enhancements flow amid order trough

Mar 13, 2020 at 08:11 AM CST
Kenworth Truck Co. is introducing an optional diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) tank with integrated steps designed for its T680 and T880 models. The access steps to the deck plate are mounted directly over the DEF tank without requiring additional frame space. The placement of the steps can free up as much as 16 inches of frame space, a boost to space-constrained truck operators. The resulting shorter wheelbase can enhance the maneuverability of the trucks in tight urban areas or on job sites. The option is available with Kenworth’s 21-gallon, medium-size aerodynamic DEF tanks used with the T680 and T880. It is not available with full or partial chassis fairings.
