T909 - TRADITIONAL ALL-ROUNDER
Kenworth’s tradition of classic styling continues with the T909 and is versatile enough to operate in almost any application from logging to livestock, especially where fuel capacity and front axle weight is critical.
Whether in single trailer or multi-trailer road train configuration, on highway or the roughest outback track, the T909 has been designed, engineered and built in Australia to deliver unmatched performance in the harshest possible conditions. The T909 is available in a 6×4 and 8×6 configuration.

CHASSIS FRAME LAYOUT
To suit your needs, Kenworth trucks offer customised wheelbases and frame layouts. We can optimise the frame layout design for maximum fuel capacity, durability and provision for auxiliary frame mounted equipment

Together with the frame layout we have an extensive range of fuel tanks for a variety of applications. Polished aluminium tanks are standard for weight saving, or you can select steel tanks for more demanding applications. The T909 features a long chassis for maximum fuel tank space.

The T909 is powered by the Cummins X15 Euro 5 engine available in a range of horsepower and torque ratings up to 600 hp and 2050 lb-ft. The X15 features Advanced Dynamic Efficient Powertrain Technology (ADEPT) – a suite of electronic features that interact with Eaton automated manual transmissions, dynamically adapting to operating conditions to enhance fuel economy with no impact on productivity. Manual transmissions are also available in the T909.
