Freightliner Cascadia

Whether your fleet is large or small, fuel efficiency has an enormous impact on your real cost of ownership. With the Cascadia, every angle of efficiency has been considered. From the powertrain to the exterior aerodynamics to the weight-saving materials and even down to the mirrors, Freightliner has produced a truck that has no equal in fuel savings.

The smart exterior design of the Cascadia equates to real money on your balance sheet. 24-inch side extenders, full chassis fairings with 4-inch ground clearance, as well as an aerodynamically designed door and hood-mounted mirrors all combine to reduce drag on the vehicle in a way that adds up over the life of the truck.

The integrated Detroit Powertrain standard in the Cascadia is the most fuel-efficient combination of components available on the market today. The DD15 and DD13 engines are the most fuel-efficient engines ever designed. Pair that with a DT12 transmission and cutting-edge technology that allows these components to communicate for optimal shifting, and you get a powertrain system with unmatched dependability.

With the Freightliner Cascadia safety comes first, second, and third. Using cutting edge camera and radar technology, the Detroit Assurance collision mitigation systems make significant advances in class 8 truck safety.

• Brake Assist: alert systems calculate the speed and distance to moving and stationary objects and will engage brakes if needed. This means drivers will be alerted to pedestrians as well as moving or parked cars should there be potential for collision.
• Tailgate warning: audible and visible alerts when the truck’s following distance is too short.
• Adaptive Cruise Control: automatically adjusts cruise control speed to maintain safe following distance to other vehicles.
• Lane Departure Warning: alerts the driver if the truck drifts over lane markings.
• Intelligent High Beam: seamlessly switches between high and low beams as needed by sensing light from surroundings or other vehicles.
• Optional safety features include Active Lane Assist, Side Guard Assist, Video Capture, Driver-Facing Camera.
• Electronic Stability Control: system can indicate a loss of control and automatically slow individual wheels as necessary.

When home, office, and vehicle are all the same thing, driver comfort is essential. The Freightliner Cascadia was designed with drivers top of mind. The sleeper and work space is spacious and inviting, the cab is well-insulated for a quieter drive, and the wrap-around dash keeps all controls and gauges within easy reach.
