KIRKLAND, Wash. — Kenworth has made Allison’s vocational automatic transmission available on its T300 medium-duty trucks.

The Allison 3000 HS Highway Series vocational model transmission has been designed with line-haul and local P&D applications in mind. It has no PTO provision and is available in both five- and six-speeds with a gross torque of 1,100 lb.-ft. for 80,000 lb. GVWs. Allison says it also features increased horsepower and torque capacity and includes a standard oil level sensor.

"Kenworth continues to offer additional options for the T300, which has become a popular choice in the marketplace thanks to its reliability, durability, and low-cost of ownership," says Steve Gilligan, Kenworth general marketing manager.

Kenworth’s T300 is available as a straight truck or tractor in a variety of wheelbases with single or tandem axles. It can also be spec’d with either air or hydraulic brakes in GVWs ranging from 19,500-54,600 lbs.
