The Kenworth K220 is the latest version of the Australian designed and built K Series cabover, launched by Kenworth at Archerfield airport in Brisbane on 3 June 2022 to replace the K200. Development began in 2018 and aimed at driver comfort and technology: a new roof profile shaped with computational fluid dynamics for a four per cent aerodynamic gain, a 15 inch digital instrument panel, a climate controlled cab, LED headlamps and a quieter, roomier interior. It is offered in six axle configurations, with Cummins X15 Euro 6 and Euro 5 engines and either an Eaton RoadRanger manual or an Eaton Endurant XD Pro 18 speed automated manual transmission, and cabs from a 1.7 metre day cab to a 2.8 metre sleeper.
