The New Freightliner SuperTruck ll
SUPERTRUCK II
It's not just about the future, it's about tomorrow.
SuperTruck II reflects Freightliner's relentless pursuit of freight efficiencies to focus on core components that are already critical to real-world savings today and will become more important tomorrow: powertrain, rolling resistance, aerodynamics, and safety. As part of the SuperTruck program co-founded by the Department of Energy (DOE) with the aim to reduce emissions from on-road freight transportation, DTNA engineers were able to investigate next-generation technologies for heavy-duty commercial trucks and to clear the technical pathway for their development and potential integration into series production. Focus was on developing new technologies on the promising core components and systems to improve the real world operational efficiency of the truck to help make customers more successful and increase fleet operation efficiency.
