Morgan Olson Reveals the Kestrel Work Truck
Morgan Olson has launched its Kestrel, a compact work truck that is much smaller than the company’s step vans, yet is also built for performance. It is available in left- and right-hand drive models and four-wheel drive.

Morgan Olson continues its legacy of innovation with the launch of the all-new “Kestrel” work truck. Named after the bold and agile kestrel – a small but fierce falcon known for its precision and efficiency – this compact powerhouse is smaller than Morgan Olson’s iconic step vans yet built with the same uncompromising commitment to long-lasting performance.
“Many vocations appear to be seeking smaller applications for their delivery and service needs, and we are excited to present the Kestrel as a work truck solution”, said Joe Rudolph, vice president of sales and marketing at Morgan Olson. "As we continue to grow and expand our work truck product line into new vocations, the Kestrel presents limitless possibilities.”
With customizable cargo access and management and available in left- and right-hand drive models and four-wheel drive, Morgan Olson believes all markets, domestic and international, can be served.
The applications are not limited to work trucks. Design and functionality include considerations from law enforcement, fire departments, and other first-line responders as they seek a smaller, more fuel-efficient solution for increasing demands, Rudolph added.
“This innovative work truck retains all the proven long-life benefits Morgan Olson is known for with the addition of “automotive” cab comforts and essential safety features, significantly enhancing this total turn-key work truck," Rudolph explained. "Safety and serviceability were among our top priorities in developing the Kestrel, and these latest technologies supported by an existing service network.”
