Kenworth's W900 semi-trucks didn't make waves entirely on their own. These soon-to-be-discontinued trucks are part of the brand's 1.9-meter cab Class 8 truck line.
Each Kenworth W900 Legacy Edition will be serialized – counting from 1,000 down to 0001 – in order of build date and sequence with a special limited-edition badge on the glovebox.
Production is limited to Kenworth’s 2023 100th anniversary year. The W900 Limited Edition model is available in three configurations—86-in. Studio Sleeper, 72-in. Flat Top, and Extended Day Cab.
Kenworth will produce 1,000 of the limited-edition W900 units, serialized from No. 1000 down to 0001. Also: Wabash's $462M "nuclear" verdict was reduced to $108M; more.

A final call for truck orders will be announced later in 2025. The trucks being discontinued are Kenworth's legacy 1.9 m cab Class 8 trucks including: W900 (W900L and W900B) T800W (wide-hood) C500 ...
Kenworth will stop making three of its legacy 1.9-meter cab Class 8 tractors in 2026, including the W900, the first examples of which began rolling off the production line as far back as 1963.
