About the Western Star 57X

Your home away from home, the Western Star 57X is so comfortable it actually feels like home. The cab, the dash, even the digital display all put the driver first. You won’t find a more driver-focused truck out there. Optional driver’s lounge amenities include a flat-screen TV, refrigerator, dinette, and a full-size Murphy bed. The digital dash is easy to read and is customizable for driver preferences.

The Western Star 57X comes with the state-of-the art Detroit Assurance safety systems, taking safety technology to a whole new level of excellence. Detroit Assurance includes Active Brake Assist, Adaptive Cruise Control, Brake Hold Mode, Lane Keep Assist, Lane Departure Protection, and Side Guard Assist. The road can serve up surprises and unknowns around every bend, but the Detroit Assurance suite of features uses cutting edge technology to mitigate potential dangers.

The entire Western Star series of trucks was engineered from the ground up to balance toughness and efficiency. The aerodynamics of the 57X was rigorously tested to deliver fuel efficiency that directly impacts your bottom line.
