1,000 Kenworth W900 Legacy Edition Trucks to be Produced

It was 62 years in the making. The Kenworth W900 Legacy Edition is here, and it epitomizes the iconic Kenworth model that drivers of all ages aspire to own. More than 280,000 W900s have been sold since 1963, with the final builds coming in 2026.

“Our W900 Legacy Edition is a way to celebrate the history and importance of the truck model with our customers,” said Kevin Haygood, Kenworth’s assistant general manager for sales and marketing.

“We will produce 1,000 of these limited-edition trucks, and they’re sure to become a collector’s item. They’ll be powered by the Cummins X15 engine painted in legacy Cummins beige – an exclusive color for this limited edition. The Legacy Edition is the 9th limited edition W900 Kenworth has produced. In recognition of that, we are bringing back paint schemes from those past trucks and some other fan favorites.”

“There has been a long love affair between drivers and the W900,” said Mr. Haygood. “The trucking industry features many generational families and owner-operators who have bought the W900 over all these years. It’s The Driver’s Truck^™ with its bold, long hood and stately appearance. It’s why you see them at so many truck shows – they’ve won plenty of awards. The W900 also occupies a special place in popular culture. It dodged Smokey and aided Mr. Bond, all while becoming an iconic piece of automotive history.”
