ATLANTA -- Kenworth Truck says it's completing its largest ever hybrid truck order.
Coca-Cola Enterprises has ordered 150 Kenworth T370 diesel-electric tractors and 35 Kenworth T370 hybrid trucks, all of which will be on the road this year.
The Kenworth T370 tractors are the largest hybrid delivery truck on the road in North America, the truckmaker says.
Coca-Cola uses tractors as its standard bulk delivery truck for large deliveries, and plans to deploy the Kenworth hybrid tractors in several large North American cities, including Montreal, Toronto and Vancouver.
"Coca-Cola Enterprises' commitment to deploy fuel-saving Kenworth hybrid tractors and trucks into the North American market is an outstanding demonstration of corporate responsibility and sustainability," said Bill Kozek, Kenworth general manager and Paccar vice president.
Coca-Cola's Kenworth T370 hybrids are equipped with a Paccar PX-6 engine, rated up to 280 hp and up to 660 lb-ft of torque, and the Eaton(R) diesel-electric hybrid power system. The hybrids also have an integral transmission-mounted motor/generator and frame-mounted 340-volt, lithium-ion battery pack.
