Safety First
When it comes to riding the road, safety isn’t just one more thing to think about - it’s everything.
It’s why we design and build every Kenworth cab using aircraft quality alloys for structural strength. It’s why our trucks give you outstanding visibility - forward, back and all around. It’s why we put your controls within easy reach and balance all the components of your Kenworth with precision.
Built to protect you
New safety features are being developed all the time - like our Electronic Brake Safety Systems (EBSS). Extensively tested under the harshest Australian conditions and now available on all Kenworth models, this technology helps you stay in control, even when braking in an emergency.
Kenworth EBSS uses the Bendix ABS-6 Advanced platform anti lock brake system, but additionally now incorporates Electronic Stability Program (ESP) calibrated specifically for Australian models, road conditions and applications. The system is further enhanced with the development of an electric trailer brake actuation system for EBS equipped trailers, and additional ABS related functions.
All this makes for a stronger, more reliable truck that looks after the most important payload of all - you. Check out our safety videos and see for yourself.
