The Kenworth T370 features new halogen projector low beam headlamps with 30 percent more light down the road and three times longer life than sealed beam headlamps. The hood is made of sheet molded composite (SMC) for enhanced fit and finish, while a new hood assist device and 90-degree hood tilt opening offer superior access to the engine compartment for ease of service. A one-piece chrome or painted bumper and new Metton® quarter fenders provide additional durability and impact resistance.
Inside is an ergonomically-friendly, wrap-around instrument panel with large, easy-to-read, glare-free gauges. The fully trimmed cab is quiet with no doghouse, which helps to greatly reduce interior noise. Standard features include power door locks, passenger-side electric windows (optional on the driver's side), and Kenworth DayLite® doors with peeper window. Drivers will also appreciate the 50-degree wheel cut for excellent maneuverability.
The Kenworth T370 joins Kenworth's latest lineup of medium-duty trucks which features the T270 Class 6 and T170 Class 5 conventional models (the T370 and T270 are also available in a diesel-electric hybrid configuration starting in 2008), and the K360 Class 7 and K260 Class 6 cabover models.
