Presence, power and personal style wrapped in a world-class design that redefines the long-hood conventional.

Kenworth’s long-hood conventional is the enduring symbol of American trucking — a perfect fusion of power, luxury, craftsmanship and traditional styling. For most professional drivers, it also represents the ultimate reward, a uniquely personal icon that stands for their dedication, achievement and sense of pride. Through the decades, our job has been to carefully — and continually — refine this classic without changing what made it great. Introducing the Kenworth W990, the truck for those who put a premium on making a personal statement. It comes with uncompromising styling, straight ahead performance, premium finishes and lifestyle amenities that put you way ahead of the pack. It just doesn’t get any better than this.

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.
