The Peterbilt 362 was a cab-over-engine (COE) Class 8 truck whose assembly began at the Madison, Tennessee plant in 1981. It replaced the 352H and was the first completely new Peterbilt COE in 22 years, with a curved three-piece windshield, a larger and more aerodynamic cab and a more functional interior. Several axle configurations were offered, including set-back front axles, twin-steer and all-wheel drive, and six cab configurations ran from 54 to 110 inches. It continued as the company's mainstream COE after the 372 ended in 1994, and when it ended production in 2005 it was the last cabover model line sold in North America.
