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.

Kenworth's W900 semi-truck has been around for decades, but the company has finally decided to discontinue it. Here's why the iconic semi-truck is going away.

The W900 put in more than six decades of service and is now being put out to pasture as Kenworth focuses on the next generation of trucks.

Kenworth is discontinuing several of its semi-trucks, including the W900, at the end of 2025, due to changes in emissions regulations.

Over the years, Kenworth has introduced four iterations of the W900, each incorporating advancements in technology, styling, and performance while maintaining its iconic look.

Kenworth has announced that it will end production of its W900, T800 and C500 models next year.

The OEM plans to end W900 production in 2026. Kenworth will make 1,000 W900 Legacy Edition trucks to celebrate the model's long history.

A walkaround video of the first, No. 1000 special-edition W900 at MATS gives a look at some new edition-specific accessories from Paccar Parts.

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.
