I’m just wondering, as a dispatch for truck and trailer services… how the heck do you get to the front tires or suspension if the fender goes all the way to the floor? Not really built with maintenance needs in mind, I would argue.

Wonderful truck!
How does this layout work when a driver team is needed for long haul?

No ground clearance. Meant for smooth pavement with no potholes or speed bumps. Think of where we go with these things. Need to put more thought into what they are trying to accomplish. Maybe just maybe they should listen to the actual people that operate these things. Otherwise they just keep getting it wrong!

That is the most ridiculous looking thing I have ever seen I pull a double drop with much more ground clearance than that and sometimes I have to make a run at the railroad tracks and slide over when that thing crosses the railroad tracks it’s going to get hung up also that ground clearance or lack thereof is illegal

Yep they will haul 7100 more pounds and do for less that’s usually how that works out

Accept it or not this is the future of trucking and although I would never part with my 2005 W-900L or W900A, I can see where this truck could be beneficial to fleets. This is definitely a better looking truck than the Tesla and seems to have tons of better options available. Don’t know how it would handle in the winter but I’m sure KENWORTH has that figured out.

Sounds great. Let’s see some interior pics other than the cockpit.

I am thinking safety, what about an accident. What does the structure in front of the driver, if no engine bumper frame rails. What is protecting the driver.

I’m wondering what it would take to get adjusted to driving such a rig for an old timer driver. But I must admit that KW certainly looks impressive and perhaps a bit intimidating…but so was my K125 when I started.

I would like to field test with actual freight and stops and real traffic conditions. Can I be one of your real world test engineers. With options to purchase the truck if I like it.

I don’t think one 80 gallon tank is really realistic. On a day cab ok, not a road truck. Tires are probably steering tire on all wheels. Not tires that are needed for winter weather. Cameras for rear view not a fan for this idea.

Kenworth is the best truck on the road period. This new model will set the standard even higher for competitors!

It’s a beautiful rig. The efficiency is definitely a money maker. I’m real big on fuel efficiency. I’ve been trucking for 41 yrs and pulled everything and currently do flatbed. Would like to see how it would perform pulling a flatbed. I would love to be a ginny pig for that.

I think it’s awesome.
But it’ll be a long time before the k200 loses out to a streamliner pretending to be a bullet train down here in New Zealand
