Freightliner Innovation Truck


Daimler Trucks North America (DTNA) unveiled the Freightliner Cascadia “Innovation Truck” at the Mid-America Trucking Show. The truck made its appearance in flat black and had a very futuristic edge to its look. It features advanced technologies including a set of spats down the side, air dam up front, underbody aero panels and rear-view cameras instead of rear-view mirrors. The truck also uses a “Dual Ride Height” which lowers the truck when its travels at highway speeds to lower drag. The truck also has improved battery power for the cab when the truck is parked overnight. It uses stored energy instead of idling the engine to run the HVAC and entertainment systems.
