PURPOSE - KENWORTH - Kenworth Australia

AUSTRALIAN MADE.WORLD’S BEST.PURPOSEBUILT TOINDUSTRYWE KNOW BUSINESSES THAT TRANSPORT GOODS ARE AS VITALTO AUSTRALIA’S ECONOMY AS THOSE THAT GROW, MINE ORMANUFACTURE THEM.SO WE MAKE IT OUR BUSINESS TO BUILD THEM THE WORLD’SBEST TRUCKS.We have some of the most demanding road conditions in the world,with many trucks in Australia travelling vast distances on corrugatedroads, through billowing dust and extreme heat and humidity. Fromthe saleyards, the forests, and the remotest of mines, to the ports,farmyards and cities, Australian trucks can haul more than threetimes heavier loads than trucks in other parts of the world.To meet these challenges a truck needs to be purpose-built and toughenough to stand the test of time, while providing operators with a safeand comfortable environment. Every Australian Kenworth is designedand manufactured for its intended task and to individual customerrequirements. Manufactured with uncompromising quality, Kenworthswork harder for longer, offering strength, durability and reliability.To be Australian Made. World’s Best, we cover millions of kilometresin challenging conditions. We test the chassis, cooling, brakes andsuspension and every other component to the limit, so each truckmeets our strict quality guidelines and the needs of our customers.Designed and manufactured in the Melbourne suburb of Bayswatersince 1971, supported by PACCAR’s global strength and services,and with the backing of an extensive dealer network throughoutAustralia, New Zealand and Papua New Guinea, we have you covered.KENWORTH, DELIVERING THE RIGHT TRUCK FOR YOU AND YOURENVIRONMENT.TAILOREDTO SUITYOUR NEEDSFLEXIBILITY OF APPLICATIONWith its tight turning circle, short bumper to back of cab, high carrying capacity andrange of axle configurations, Kenworth’s T359 is the perfect solution for many applications.Designed for high centre of gravity loads i.e. agitators, Kenworth’s Electronic StabilityProgram (ESP) improves vehicle stability, and our range of Electronic Brake SafetySystems (EBSS) further enhance vehicle control and accident avoidance.T359T359A

Smart Wheel fingertip access for enginebrake and cruise functions deliver further driver confidence, comfort and control.Kenworth Electronic Brake Safety Systems (EBSS) further enhance vehiclecontrol and accident avoidance, with a comprehensive list of options available.These include Bendix Electronic Stability Control, Wingman Fusion technologyincorporating Active Cruise Control with Braking, Collision Mitigation withAutonomous Emergency Braking (AEB) and Lane Departure Warning.ABSDRAG TORQUE CONTROL (S)DTCAUTOMATIC TRACTION CONTROL (S)ATCHILL START ASSIST (0)HSAWithout ESPPrevents the truck from rolling back on steep grades, providing a consistentand controlled launch. Only available with Eaton UltraShift PLUS AutomatedTransmission.ACB Enhanced illumination of step and landing areas, increasing visibilityHelps assist with accident avoidance, by using on-board computers and radarto engage the engine and wheel braking systems if other vehicles on the roadenter unsafe distances from the truck.Kenworth tests numerous advancements to identify and incorporate intoproduction the best innovations to improve safety, environmental performanceand productivity.With ESPPrevents wheel spin under acceleration as the drive torque exceeds the drivetyres to road surface adhesion. The ATC system communicates with the engineECU to reduce engine power or will apply the brake to the drive wheels dependingon the low traction event.ACTIVE CRUISE BRAKING (O)Kenworth’s commitment to ongoing research, design and engineeringcapability demonstrates our flexibility in adapting new technologies as theycome to the fore.ELECTRONIC STABILITY PROGRAMPrevents the driven wheels from compression locking on a slippery surface byraising engine revs to assist with vehicle stability. High visibility grab handles and seat beltsAN ONGOING COMMITMENT TO INNOVATION AND SAFETYPreset DistancePrevents wheel lock-up when the vehicle is over braked, often reducing stoppingdistances. Vehicles can retain directional stability and steerability even underemergency braking on slippery road surfaces. ABS also reduces the danger ofjackknifing in the case of vehicle combinations.Optional items to even further safeguard driver well-being include: Ground based fluid checkACTIVE CRUISE BRAKINGTRAILER RESPONSE MANAGEMENT * (O)TRMCOLLISION MITIGATION SYSTEM WITH AEBAudible and visual alerts, applicationof brakes if necessaryElectronic trailer brake actuation (for EBS compatible trailers only) for improvedtrailer braking response to assist with reduced stopping distances.* Not available on T359AELECTRONIC STABILITY PROGRAM (0)ESPHelps to restore vehicle stability through the use of ABS, ATC and steeringdirection in the prevention of rollovers and jackknifing. Steering angle, yaw,suspension pressure and brake application pressure sensors monitor the intendedvehicle directional control versus actual vehicle movement. ESP intervenes byapplying individual wheel brakes, or reduced engine torque when required toenhance vehicle stability. The system is compatible with multi trailer combinations.COLLISION MITIGATION SYSTEM WITH AEB (O)CMSWhen a forward moving or stationary vehicle enters an unsafe driving distancefrom the truck, the system utilises audible and visual alerts to warn the driverand if necessary applies the brakes to mitigate an imminent collision. Thisfunctionality operates whether cruise control is activated or not.LANE DEPARTURE WARNING (O)LDWThe LDW system detects when a vehicle drifts across a lane marking. Whenthis occurs and the turn signal is not activated, the unit automatically emitsan audible warning, alerting the driver to make a correction. It gives driversthe ability to combat lane drift related to fatigue, distractions and unfavourableweather conditions, working effectively both day and night and in most weatherconditions, like rain or fog, where visibility is limited.(S) STANDARD(O) OPTIONALLANE DEPARTURE WARNINGAudible alert
