The new class-8 over-the-road truck reflects extensive driver input, delivers new levels of fuel efficiency and uptime.
International Truck has launched the all new International LT series, its new flagship line of Class 8 over the-road trucks developed through driver centric design and featuring advanced technologies that deliver unrivaled fuel efficiency, best-in-class uptime and unparalleled driver appeal.
UNPARALLELED DRIVER APPEAL
In developing the LT Series, International worked hard to assure that drivers will find each vehicle more comfortable, appealing and user-friendly in every detail. In keeping with the company's DriverFirst product design focus, International undertook extensive research with truck drivers, including driver clinics that gathered input from hundreds of drivers. International used this research to design an all-new interior, and identified multiple new and improved features that enhance driver appeal.
"To ensure the new LT Series is the most driver-centric Class 8 vehicle we've ever built, we gave drivers a voice in its design," said JeffSass, senior vice president, Sales and Marketing, Navistar. "Many of our customers tell us that their number-one challenge is attracting and retaining drivers, which is why we put so much effort into understanding and responding to drivers' needs. These improvements also contribute to increased driver ease of use that will boost the vehicle's productivity."
