Peterbilt Motors Company appears set to respond to the recent government funding made available in the US, for ARRA projects, announcing immediate availability of its vocational and aerodynamic vehicles powered by compressed and liquefied natural gas (CNG & LNG). The Model 365 and Model 384 will be offered with the Cummins Westport ISL G and built at Peterbilt’s truck manufacturing facility in Denton, Texas.

“Our Models 365 and 384 are examples of Peterbilt’s commitment to delivering products that will reduce harmful emissions and provide the performance and overall value our customers need,” said Bill Jackson, Peterbilt General Manager and PACCAR Vice President.

The Model 365 NG is equipped with the powerful Cummins Westport ISL G providing a 320 horsepower rating and 1,000 lb-ft of torque.

The ISL G powered Model 384 provides the industry’s cleanest burning aerodynamic platform with the power and performance to meet the needs of a wide variety of customer applications including line, bulk and tanker hauling. Additionally, the Peterbilt Model 384 has been recognized as fuel efficient and environmentally-friendly by the EPA’s SmartWay program.

Cummins Westport’s ISL G natural gas engine for heavy-duty Class 8 trucks  is certified to the toughest global emissions standards and meets U.S. EPA and CARB 2010 emissions standards today.

The engine can be fuelled by either compressed natural gas (CNG) or liquefied natural gas (LNG) – both are cost effective, low carbon, and low emissions fuel – and is available with a 320 horsepower rating and a 1,000 lb-ft torque rating for heavy-duty port, freight and vocational applications. CNG or LNG fuel tanks can be configured to suit customer applications and range requirements. NG heavy-duty trucks are eligible for federal tax credits in the United States and may be eligible for other state-specific emissions credits.
