1.55 Update: Kenworth T680 Update

In December 2023, we released the Kenworth T680 Anniversary Edition. Now, with the upcoming 1.55 update for American Truck Simulator, we will introduce more customization options for this beautiful truck, including new cabins, chassis, interior designs, and more!

The initial release of this truck was done on a super-accelerated schedule as we wanted to bring it to our #BestCommunityEver for Kenworth's 100 years celebration, and we made it happen on time thanks to smooth cooperation with experts from Kenworth. Now you will be able to truly customize this beauty of a truck thanks to the additional work of our vehicle team!

Players will be able to choose between three cab variants as we are adding the 52" Mid-Roof and the 76" High-Roof, offering more flexibility and personality on the road. The chassis lineup will expand by seven configurations, including 6x4 options for all cabs in both short and long hood versions, as well as 4x2 setups specifically for day cabs.

A total of 20 interior variants will be added: eight for the 76" High-Roof cab and eight for the 52" Mid-Roof, each in both single and double bunk layouts, plus four tailored for the day cab. Every interior will come in Diamond VIT and Vantage trims, with stylish Tan and Grey color options.

Under the hood, drivers will have even more options, as we are adding seven powerful engine variants from the Cummins X12 and X15 series, and also five new transmission choices to match their driving style.

A massive range of new accessories will come too, giving you the freedom to personalize nearly every aspect of your rig. This includes bumpers in both chrome and painted finishes. Cab extenders will be available for all cabin types, and classic exhausts are being added for the Day Cab and 52" cab. You'll also find chrome detailing for the front grill and side filters, plus two hood versions, short and long, designed to accommodate larger engines.

New physical mirror models will come in both chrome and painted variants, and white fenders will give a fresh look to your setup. For even more customization, you'll be able to add or remove aero kits, chassis skid plates, and deck plates in a variety of styles. Vent-style side windows, removable rear extenders, and three new steering wheel variants will add even more flexibility. And yes, removable sun visors will now be available across all cabs.

And to tie it all together, all paint jobs, including those from DLCs, will now be fully compatible with this truck, giving you even more options to create your perfect ride.

Kenworth T680 100 Years Anniversary Edition Release

The moment we've all been eagerly waiting for is finally here! We're thrilled to announce the release of the much-anticipated Kenworth T680 100 Years Anniversary Edition for American Truck Simulator. 

After numerous requests from our passionate community, we've partnered with Kenworth to bring you a completely new vehicle – the Kenworth T680 100 Years Anniversary Edition. This iconic truck represents a century of Kenworth's commitment to excellence and innovation, making it a must-have for every trucker out there.

The special edition features an onyx-finished grill and filter covers, a distinctive Kenworth 100 badge on the sleeper cab, and a luxurious interior with red accents and silver trim. The signature edition seats and steering wheel, along with special limited edition black wheels with silver trim add a touch of sophistication. Safety meets innovation with digital mirrors, a blind spot detector, and the Kenworth Idle Management System at the back of the cab. Aerokits from FlowBelow enhance aerodynamics, while the truck's configuration boasts the highest sleeper, the 76-inch High Roof Sleeper, paired with a 6x4 chassis and the AirGlide AG400L suspension system. Get ready for a stylish virtual journey honoring Kenworth's enduring legacy!

This project thrived thanks to a fantastic collaboration with Kenworth, especially Brianna Potthast and her team, who was such a joy to cooperate on this truck with. Special thanks also go to our vehicle team, especially Daniel Antonín, and our external colleague Renju Therakathu from New Zealand. Stay tuned for exclusive interviews with Daniel and Renju, offering insights into the Kenworth T680 100 Years Anniversary Edition's development.

While we're proud to release the Anniversary Edition on time for Kenworth's 100 years celebration, this is just the first stage of the full T680 release. This project was done on a super-accelerated schedule, and we made it happen on time thanks to smooth cooperation with experts from Kenworth. However, we'll need several more months to complete all the customization options our #BestCommunityEver is used to when receiving a new vehicle family with complete treatment, so stay tuned!
