Peterbilt 320

Trucks and Commercial Road Vehicles

The Model 320 was a low-cab cab-over-engine truck for refuse collection, created in 1987 when Peterbilt redesigned the Model 310. It was no longer shared with Kenworth, and it let the driver drive from a standing position. From 2011 it was assembled in the PACCAR plant at Mexicali, Mexico, alongside the 210 and 220. The Model 520 of 2016 replaced it after 29 years of production, looking nearly the same but with larger windshield wipers, optional LED headlamps and an improved refuse-collection function.
