The Freightliner Cascadia® and Cascadia Evolution have several new options available to drivers. The new options enhance driver performance and safety, further contributing to the comfort and productivity of the Cascadia and Cascadia Evolution.
Options include:
- ParkSmart™ HVAC system combined with Optimized Idle®: An integration of two systems, this new feature automatically starts the engine if both the main and auxiliary battery packs are depleted. Cab temperature is controlled by the ParkSmart HVAC system, and the Optimized Idle system will monitor the battery voltage and oil temperature and start the engine when necessary. Drivers who find themselves parked for more than eight hours will benefit from virtually unlimited ParkSmart time.
- Yellow B-Pillar Grab Handle: This brightly colored handle option is more visible for cab entry, especially when it is dark outside.
- Leaf Spring Suspension Rating: The new 12.5K rated leaf spring suspension complements the Detroit™ front axle offering and provides a smoother ride and is lighter weight than a 13.3k suspension.
- Genuine Bendix® AD-9SI Air Dryer: More than 40 percent lighter with an additional 25 percent increase in capacity over the current AD-IP dryer, this new air dryer has a spin-on cartridge, enabling faster replacement.
