Peterbilt Alternative Fuels 320

 Durability

Built to Work Hard.

No other truck measures up to the harsh demands of the refuse industry like Peterbilt’s rugged Model 320, a low-cab forward vehicle that is the perfect fit for this challenging application. A huck-bolted aluminum cab features lap seam construction on a zinc-coated steel sub-frame for durability and corrosion resistance. Bulkhead-style doors provide years of virtually watertight performance.

 Powertrain Optimization

Fuel-efficient, Reliable and Environmentally Sound.

The Model 320 diesel engine lineup spans from the lightweight, fuel-efficient PACCAR PX-9 to the powerful Cummins ISX12 with ratings up to 400 horsepower and 1,650 lb-ft. of torque. For natural gas applications, the Model 320 is available with a choice of the Cummins Westport ISL G rated at 320 horsepower and 1,000 lb-ft of torque or the Cummins Westport ISX12 G with ratings from 320-350 horsepower and 1,150-1,350 lb-ft of torque.
