Kenworth T680 reaches order milestone

Oct. 4, 2013

In just 15 months of production, the Kenworth T680 tractor has now surpassed the 10,000-order milestone, the company said.

The truck is suited for linehaul, pickup and delivery, and regional hauling operations and is offered in either day cab or sleeper configuration.

“This has been one of the fastest Kenworth models to achieve the 10,000 truck order milestone in Kenworth’s 90-year history,” said Gary Moore, Kenworth general manager and Paccar vice president. “It’s a testament to the growing adoption of the Kenworth T680 by a wide range of customers operating in a variety of applications.”

Kenworth recently added a 52-in. mid-roof sleeper option for regional haul applications, including tank, bulk, flatbed, heavy haul and lowboy, where drivers may spend just two or three nights on the road during a typical week. There is also a 76-in. sleeper option available.

 The T680 is standard with the Paccar MX-13 engine rated up to 500 hp. and 1,850 lbs.-ft. of torque.

The Kenworth T680 52-inch sleeper is featured in the current 2013 Kenworth Road Tour.
