CHARLOTTE, N.C.–(BUSINESS WIRE<\/a>)–
\nPACCAR today announced PACCAR Connect, a new factory-integrated platform that brings telematics, driver productivity tools, and fleet applications together in Kenworth and Peterbilt class 8 trucks. Unveiled at the American Trucking Associations\u2019 (ATA) Management Conference & Exhibition (MCE) in Charlotte, North Carolina, the platform will be available across both truck OEMsbeginning early 2027.<\/p>\n

\nOperating through a new touchscreen display, PACCAR Connect pairs essential vehicle functions with an expanding suite of apps and tools to deliver a seamless digital experience for drivers and fleets. For fleets and owner operators, PACCAR Connect \u2013 which is covered under factory warranty \u2013 can eliminate the need for multiple aftermarket devices, while providing greater flexibility to manage fleet services.<\/p>\n

\nPACCAR Connect brings to customers a gateway to the Virtual Vehicle software platform, which includes an applications marketplace that enables fleets to access a growing selection of applications. Kenworth and Peterbilt customers can access and activate applications directly through the PACCAR Connect Portal, integrating their own workflows and technology directly into the truck.<\/p>\n
