The New Cascadia is the most successful truck for heavy transports on long-haul routes (Class 8, > 15t zGG) in the North American market. Around four weeks ago, Daimler announced the first customers for the joint testing of the fully electric version of the Freightliner eCascadia. The first vehicles will be handed over to Penske Truck Leasing and NFI industries.

With its trucks brands Freightliner and Western Star, Daimler Trucks North America (DTNA) is the undisputed market leader with a market share of around 40 per cent in the medium-duty and heavy-duty segments (Class 6-8).
