Peterbilt announced its new Peterbilt Model 337 medium-duty truck suitable for pickup and delivery, beverage and food service vocations.
According to the truck maker, the all-new ergonomically designed driver display package features a gauge package that is easy to read, simple to understand and includes key vehicle performance data located at the top of the dash for optimal viewing. An optional GPS system provides navigation in difficult urban environments. Power windows, mirrors and lock switches are located in the new door pad design, and a new HVAC system is said to improve airflow and reduce maintenance costs.
An overall increase of 17% side window visibility and improved forward visibility provides an advantage for drivers operating in congested urban environments, the company added. The Model 337 is constructed with an all-aluminum cab that is lightweight for fuel efficiency and corrosion resistant for durability.
Customers have a choice of two proprietary, fuel-efficient engines — the PACCAR PX-6 and PACCAR PX-8. Also available is a hybrid electric configuration that can provide fuel savings gains of up to 40%, Peterbilt said.
