Kenworth launches ADAS packages for enhanced safety and driving experience

Kenworth announces ADAS packages for T680

March 17, 2025
Kenworth will now offer three ADAS packages for the T680: ADAS, ADAS PRO, and ADAS PREMIER.

Kenworth recently announced three packages of advanced driver-assistance system options and Bendix features available for its T680s. The company will now offer three ADAS packages for the T680: ADAS, ADAS PRO, and ADAS PREMIER.

All ADAS packages include the latest version of the Bendix Fusion system, which offers updated adaptive cruise control with ACC Stop and Auto Go, a new pedestrian autonomous emergency braking feature, and high beam assist; all are supported by a new forward-looking camera. The latest high beam assist feature automatically deactivates high beams based on conditions.

With these features, the Bendix Fusion system includes previously available technologies such as autonomous emergency braking, multi-lane autonomous emergency braking, highway departure braking, stationary vehicle braking, lane departure warning, and Bendix Blindspotter side object detection.

In addition to the Bendix Fusion system, all ADAS packages include tire pressure monitoring, which provides real-time information about tire health and can alert drivers to potential issues. ADAS PRO and ADAS PREMIER include lane keeping assist, which helps to keep the truck and trailer in its lane.  This includes torque assisted steering, which helps to improve the driving experience by reducing the effort needed to turn the steering wheel.

The following ADAS features are included in each package of the new ADAS options for the T680:

  • ADAS
    • Bendix Fusion
    • Predictive cruise control
    • Bendix Blindspotter side object detection
    • Tire pressure monitoring system
  • ADAS PRO
    • All features included in ADAS, plus lane keeping assist with torque assisted steering
  • ADAS PREMIER
    • All features included in ADAS PRO, plus Kenworth’s DigitalVision mirrors

“Driver assistance systems contribute in helping to reduce driver fatigue and enhancing the ease of operating commercial trucks," Kevin Haygood, Kenworth assistant general manager for sales and marketing, said. "These new ADAS offerings will give our T680 customers more options to select features that support safe driving practices and also enhance the overall driving experience.”
