The design is innovative, the build is uncompromising and the technology leaves everything else behind. The Freightliner EconicSD™ is a truck built for one purpose—to redefine the refuse category.

Designed for Refuse

The EconicSD was designed to maximize productivity by ensuring safety and comfort. It has a panoramic windshield and low seating position to enhance driver visibility and is the first and only refuse truck in North America to offer Detroit Assurance® Suite of Safety Systems.

With its unique combination of ergonomics, versatility and technology, the EconicSD™ performs like no other commercial vehicle, delivering exceptional productivity day in and day out.

Features may include:

PRODUCTIVITY

A Purpose-Built Refuse Truck

Take productivity to the next level. The EconicSD features a spacious, comfortable cabover interior with a modern, digital instrument cluster.

This refuse truck makes navigating through urban areas safer and less stressful with a short wheelbase and low cab design for enhanced stability.

SAFETY

Next-Level Safety

From the inside out, this vehicle was designed to bring innovative safety to waste collection. Detroit Assurance® Suite of Safety Systems comes standard on this truck, making the EconicSD the only COE refuse truck in North America that features a collision mitigation system. The panoramic visibility, LED headlights, and low step-in height add more features to help make waste collection routes safer.

UPTIME

Powerful Data. Smarter Operations.

Maximum uptime is essential. That's why the EconicSD is purpose-built to increase uptime with a durable cabover and convenient access to the engine and components. And it's why it features Detroit Connect, which helps simplify maintenance and keeps fleets moving.

UPFIT

Engineered for Upfit

Freightliner worked closely with leading refuse equipment manufacturers to bring it to market with new, fully integrated waste-collection solutions. Three configurations outfit rear-load, side-load, or front load refuse trucks.

QUALITY
