Perfected for the road ahead

Start with the most highly evolved aerodynamic long-haul tractor Kenworth has ever engineered. Optimize the powertrain with an efficient, fully-integrated solution from PACCAR. Incorporate easier-to-service, longer-lived components for maximum uptime. Add smart technology that makes driving more intuitive, safer, less fatiguing. And include a world-class cabin reminiscent of the finest automobiles. Welcome to the Kenworth T680.

PROFIT-TUNED PERFORMANCE

The sleek new exterior of the T680 incorporates innovative aerodynamic design features meant to squeeze every possible mile from every gallon. Offering you up to 7 percent in fuel savings* from day one.

*Based on similarly spec’d T680 classic model. Fuel savings dependent on spec and application.


CUTTING EDGE EXTERIOR STYLING

Wind-cheating features begin up-front with a narrower hood and grille design that cuts neatly through the air. A-pillar turning vanes create less wake next to side windows and smooths airflow around the cab. Integrated front air dams, redesigned chassis fairings, and optional 28-inch side extenders work in tandem to keep airflow tight to the truck. Tandem axle fairings combine with new wind-slick wheel covers to reduce turbulence around the rear wheels and on to the trailer.

FUEL-SAVING INTELLIGENCE

A state-of-the-art, fully-optimized PACCAR powertrain together with innovative technologies such as Predictive Cruise Control, Predictive Neutral Coast and driver shift aids deliver unrivalled fuel-saving performance – automatically.

NEXT GEN EXTERIOR LIGHTING

Headlamp choices:
  • New best-in-class LED headlamps boost lighting efficiency, offering a wider pattern and whiter lighting for better visibility. Signature LED daytime running lights add a signature Kenworth look.
  • Halogen headlamps flow with the hood and integrate daytime running lights and an amber turn signal.

New side turn indicators: An unmistakable 17.3”-long LED side turn indicator, mounted to the trailing edge of the hood, increases visibility for surrounding traffic.

Side Object Detection

• Radar mounted on the passenger's side of the truck • Monitors blind spot • Provides Audio and visual alerts when an object or vehicle enters this area

Tire Pressure Monitoring

• Monitors vehicle tire pressure and temperature • Alerts Driver to under or over pressure situations • Properly inflated tires improve fuel economy

Lane Keeping Assist with Torque Assisted Steering

Torque Assisted Steering

Torque Assisted Steering is an adaptive steering technology featuring an electric motor control system that works with the hydraulic gear to improve the driving experience. It adjusts torque based on vehicle speed, easing effort at low speeds while firming at higher speeds to provide a consistent feel.

It can be tailored to the driver’s preference with three levels of assistance controlled by a conveniently positioned dash switch. This allows the driver to dial in the system so that it works for them.
