The Freightliner Cascadia®

The Freightliner Lineup

The Freightliner Cascadia® enables customers to run more efficient and successful businesses. It’s packed with engineering innovations that increase productivity and lower operating costs. It also offers proven reliability and ease of maintenance in order to maximize uptime. Comfortable, ergonomic cab interiors enhance driver productivity. Put simply, this truck is engineered and built for long-term efficiency, which improves our customers’ bottom-line performance.

The Cascadia can be spec’d with either a Detroit or Cummins heavy-duty engine with ratings up to 600 horsepower. The Cascadia Evolution 113″ BBC runs with the industry-leading Detroit™ DD13®, and the Cascadia Evolution 125″ BBC can be powered by the DD15® or DD16® engine. The Detroit DT12 Automated Manual Transmission (AMT) was developed to interface seamlessly with both the DD13 and DD15 engines, further enhancing performance and fuel economy.

Applications and Specifications

Cascadia Reefer

Temperature Controlled / Reefer

Ideal for temperature-controlled loads, the Freightliner Cascadia® brings the coolest technology to the coldest of loads. Equipped with advanced aerodynamic enhancements and the latest engine technologies, it’s designed for impressive fuel economy—even when hauling refrigerated trailers.

Whether you’re hauling food, flowers or pharmaceuticals, uptime is the key to protecting sensitive cargo. With fewer parts, easily accessible with enhanced serviceability, Freightliner® trucks are engineered to be easily maintained for increased uptime.

Real Cost of Ownership is more important than ever. With our extensive service network, competitively priced replacement parts and long-term durability, reliability is delivered by a truck that’s ready when you are. That’s what we call running smart.

Cascadia Regional Distribution

Regional Distribution

Designed for regional hauling and built for the long haul, Freightliner® regional-distribution trucks combine aerodynamic designs, weight-saving materials and the latest in engine technology for maximum fuel efficiency and payload capacity. With the addition of an up-to-50-degree wheel cut for excellent maneuverability, the Freightliner Cascadia® is built to keep always-in-demand regional haulers on the road.

Additional distribution centers, closer to customers and suppliers, are opening every day. With an expansive dealer network, ServicePoint facilities and 24/7 customer support hotline—particularly when paired with Detroit Connect Virtual Technician onboard diagnostic systems—potential downtime is continually minimized. That’s what we call running smart.

 
Cascadia Flat Bed

Pickup And Delivery

Built to handle the most cumbersome of jobs, from iron rods and steel pipes to lumber and heavy equipment, the Freightliner Cascadia® is the the first choice for tough flatbed loads. With plenty of storage on the frame rails for chains, tarps and tie-downs to contain, secure and immobilize the most challenging of loads, there is also plenty of driver headroom, and most can stand comfortably in the cab of our Mid-Roof XT model.

On the road, the advanced aerodynamics and solid, lightweight construction of a Freightliner pays off in maximized payloads and fuel efficiencies. With an up-to 50-degree wheel cut, ample swing space and a ground-to-cab height with plenty of overhead clearance—especially when backing up in crowded distribution centers or tight docking situations—Freightliner delivers superior maneuverability. That’s what we call running smart.

 
Cascadia TL / LTL

TL / LTL

When delivery schedules are non-negotiable, there’s no room for compromise, and when time is critical, it pays to have a reliable truck. Built with the most durable of components, Freightliner® trucks are optimized for strength, endurance and maximum payload.

Equipped with advanced aerodynamic enhancements and the latest drivetrain technologies—including the optional Detroit DT12 automated manual transmission—Freightliners are designed for fuel-sipping efficiency. With more customers focused on cost-per-mile, our extensive service network, reduced maintenance intervals and overall long-term durability lowers Real Cost of Ownership for every customer. That’s why the Freightliner Cascadia® is the smart choice for truckload and less-than-truckload haulers, and that’s what we call running smart.

 
Cascadia CNG

CNG

As diesel costs rise, natural gas remains relatively stable and less expensive, and tax credits to defer acquisition expenditures may also apply. Switching to natural gas now can translate into significant fuel savings and money in your pocket tomorrow, so be sure to check with your local dealer to review available incentives.

Better for the environment, near-zero-emission Freightliner® natural-gas-powered trucks are among the cleanest trucks on the road, featuring Cummins Westport engines with greenhouse gas (GHG) emission reductions of up to 20% versus comparable diesel engines. Also, on average, natural gas engines run 10 decibels quieter than a comparable diesel engine.

Reliable and safe alternatives, the 112 M2 and Cascadia 113 trucks feature factory-installed, warranty-covered natural-gas engines, fuel tanks and related components, including a standard methane-detection system. In the rare occurrence of a CNG tank puncture, fuel will simply vent into the atmosphere, rather than pool onto the ground. Factory-installed back-of-cab CNG (Type III aluminum-wrapped carbon fiber with 20-year lifespan), rail-mounted CNG (type IV carbon-fiber-wrapped plastic) and LNG (stainless steel) cylinder tanks meet or exceed all applicable safety standards.

With a simple purchase process, easy financing, comprehensive warranties and unmatched service and support, Freightliner has you covered.

 
Cascadia Bulk Haul

Bulk Haul

Built to maximize payloads and efficiencies without sacrificing durability or safety, Freightliner® bulk-haulers deliver versatility—in bulk. A variety of optional, lightweight components—like aluminum frame rails, axle carriers and air tanks—deliver significant weight savings and real fuel economy.

With a full selection of safety options, including stability control, rollover restraint packages, seat- and steering-wheel-mounted airbags, as well as object-detection and collision-avoidance systems, even hauling heavy and hazardous materials is made safer and easier. Flexible Power Take-Off (PTO) placement increases options. That’s what we call running smart.
