Peterbilt Model 567
Rugged and reliable, the Model 567 features a large windshield and cab-mounted mirrors for greater visibility. It includes a 15-inch configurable digital display that delivers critical truck systems information, including collision mitigation alerts and tire pressure monitoring.

The Model 520EV provides a zero-emissions solution for commercial and residential refuse applications, handling up to 1,100 trash bins on a single charge. Developed for maximum efficiency, the Model 520EV takes advantage of frequent starts and stops typical with refuse applications to transfer energy back to its battery packs through regenerative braking.
