Named the 2015 Truck of the Year by the American Truck Dealers (ATD), the Kenworth T880 exemplifies Kenworth’s long-time core values of quality, innovation and technology in producing The World’s Best® trucks. Day in and day out, the durable T880 is a dependable, versatile truck capable of performing the toughest jobs productively and efficiently. The new video features T880 dump, mixer, wrecker, heavy hauler, logger and refuse trucks in action going up steep grades, in the rain, and on- and off-road.
The T880 is standard with the PACCAR MX-13 engine rated up to 500 hp and 1,850 lb-ft of torque. The PACCAR MX-13 provides a lightweight, fuel-efficient engine for vocational applications, including dumps and heavy haul applications over 100,000 lbs. The T880 also is available with the new PACCAR MX-11 engine with up to 430 hp and 1,550 lb-ft of torque. The 10.8-liter engine is 400 pounds lighter than 13-liter engines and provides truck operators with enhanced payload capacity and fuel economy.
The video also focuses on important driver comfort features. The quiet, 2.1-meter lightweight and robotically assembled aluminum cab provides a spacious 23 inches of room between the seats. The Kenworth proprietary air suspension seats automatically adjust to the driver’s weight. Drivers also benefit from the panoramic windshield, best in class complex reflector headlamps, air-assisted hydraulic clutch, and an ergonomic dash panel that is easy to read and use.
In addition to its day cab configuration, the T880 is available with 52-inch and 76-inch mid-roof sleepers, along with a new 40-inch sleeper.
