Kenworth\u2019s K270E Class 6 and K370E Class 7 battery-electric vehicles are now available for order from Kenworth dealers in both the U.S. and Canada.<\/span><\/p>\n

The electric powertrain is available with battery packs of 141kWh and 282kWh, delivering up to a 100- and 200-mile range, respectively. Utilizing a DC fast-charging system, the trucks are capable of re-charging in as quick as one hour, making it ideal for short regional haul operations, according to the company.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cKenworth is committed to provide advanced vehicle technologies, and the medium-duty K270E and K370E electric trucks are a major step forward,\u201d said Kevin Baney, Kenworth general manager and PACCAR vice president.<\/span><\/p>\n

Kenworth battery-electric vehicles offer two direct-drive motors rated at 355 hp and 469 hp, providing enough torque to start the load from a stop on a 20% grade and the power to maintain 40 mph on a 6% grade while fully loaded. Regenerative braking in stop-and-go city conditions also recharges the batteries and extends brake life.<\/span><\/p>\n

The system configuration also optimizes weight distribution with batteries mounted outside and air tanks mounted inside the frame rails. Available wheelbases offered are 206 inches (24-foot box bodies), 218 inches (26-foot box bodies) and 274 inches (30-foot box bodies).<\/span><\/p>\n

Initial customer deliveries are expected to begin by the end of 2020.<\/span><\/p>\n
