KENWORTH W900
KENWORTH W900. Dramatic departure in heavy duty trucks.
When you’ve arrived, there’s really only one choice to make Kenworth W900. The perfect fusion of cutting-edge technologies, expert engineering and classic styling. It just doesn’t get any better than this. From the day it was introduced, the W900 reflected a dramatic departure in heavy-duty trucks. It brought the road to life for drivers and owners alike. Set the pace in long-haul performance, reliability, ease of maintenance, productivity and sheer luxury. Combined ready-for-anything functionality with beautifully aesthetic design like never before.
When you drive a Kenworth W900, you own the immediate vicinity. It is a look. It is a sound. It is the undeniable recognition of your achievement.
• After all, who could ignore the sheer presence of Kenworth’s W900L – with 130 inches from bumper to back-of-cab, one of the longest of long-nosed conventionals. Or miss the personalized message so clearly reflected in customized brightwork, hand-stitched upholstery and soul-stirring dual chromed stacks. Who wouldn’t gaze with envy at a hand-masked, hand-finished paint job that exhibits a luster so deep you can see it for miles. Or fail to appreciate the exclusive styling of a Kenworth AeroCab® or Studio Sleeper.
• A W900 blends the choices you make, from powertrain to paint scheme, with Kenworth’s right-the-first-time manufacturing integrity. The result is the best-engineered, hardest-working, most luxuriously comfortable, downright awe-inspiring truck we know how to build.
• Kenworth W900. No matter where it goes, it won’t go unnoticed.
A true classic.
It doesn't get any better than a W900L. Unless, of course, you choose the ICON 900, an exclusive limited-edition of this legendary classic.
Owning the road never felt so good.
Inside, the W900 is luxurious, from its commanding driver's view to its traditional diamond upholstery.
