The new Freight liner Cascadia is the most advanced truck Freight liner has ever designed, and will further lower the Real Cost of Ownership (RCO) for customers.
“With the new Cascadia, we have not just updated past successes. Every aspect of the truck has been re-imagined. We are raising fuel efficiency, connectivity, safety, quality and uptime performance to even greater levels, and also introducing a premium driver experience as a powerful customer benefit and driver retention tool. Every element of the vehicle was examined and developed with an RCO-centric approach,” said Richard Howard, senior vice president, Sales and Marketing for Daimler Trucks North America.
POWERING EFFICIENCY
When developing the new Cascadia, engineers set a priority goal of achieving significant fuel savings over the already industry-leading Cascadia Evolution by conducting robust testing, research and development.
