Peterbilt Launches New Model 579 Ultraloft

February 18, 2018

Peterbilt 579 ULTRALOFT_RoadTodayPeterbilt Motors Company has recently introduced the new Model 579 UltraLoft. The truck offers drivers an integral cab and sleeper design for Peterbilt’s on-highway Model 579 that provides the ultimate level of driver comfort and the distinctive style and quality Peterbilt is known for.

“The UltraLoft was designed and tested in close collaboration with customers and drivers. The UltraLoft delivers a premium environment while maintaining the distinctive Peterbilt style. I am confident drivers will fully embrace this new home away from home,” said Kyle Quinn, Peterbilt Motors Company General Manager and PACCAR Senior Vice President.

By optimizing the space available, the new sleeper model includes industry-leading storage and comfort. The UltraLoft gives drivers the largest upper and lower bunk mattresses, best-in-class headroom in both bunks and some creature comforts of home with space to accommodate the industry’s largest microwave and enough room to fit a 32 inch flat screen TV.

 

Peterbilt 579 ULTRALOFT 2_RoadToday“Peterbilt’s customers have been asking for a product that maximizes the space available in the cab, and the UltraLoft delivers on that request. This makes it an ideal truck for team drivers, training scenarios and customers that want to maximize aerodynamic performance and driver comfort,” said Robert Woodall, Assistant General Manager – Sales and Marketing, Peterbilt Motors Company.

The improvements are not limited to the driver experience. The UltraLoft provides an estimated 2-percent aerodynamic improvement to push the limits of efficiency even further while maintaining the styling and bold look of the Model 579.

The 579 UltraLoft is available for order now and production scheduled to begin in the summer.
