Sterling 360 Rolls Out New Model, Product Updates
REDFORD, MI – Sterling Truck Corp. continues to expand its growing light commercial vehicles line with the new Class 3 Sterling 360, which is the lightest product in Sterling's range of Class 3-8 trucks.

REDFORD, MI – Sterling Truck Corp. continues to expand its growing light commercial vehicles line with the new Class 3 Sterling 360, which is the lightest product in Sterling’s range of Class 3-8 trucks. Sterling also introduced a number of product enhancements for its 2008 model-year Sterling 360 trucks.
Introduced in early 2006, the Sterling 360 is a versatile low cab-over truck that comes standard with a complete, value-added package, including customer support, financing, and body upfitting options. Every 2008 model-year Sterling 360 — Class 3, 4, and 5 — will be rolling off the line with several new product enhancements, including increased horsepower, a lowered chassis, and standard cruise control.
The Class 3 model features a gross vehicle weight rating of 12,500 lbs. and an On-Board Diagnostics system (OBD-II). OBD-II provides a universal inspection and diagnosis method to be sure the vehicle is performing correctly and to EPA emissions standards. This feature will also be available on 2008 Class 4 and 5 Sterling 360 trucks.
The new Class 3 Sterling 360 is currently available for order and will be available at dealerships in fall 2007.
All 2008 model-year Sterling 360 trucks will feature a number of product enhancements.
Several improvements in the Sterling 360’s engine are being introduced as a result of the changes made to comply with EPA 2007 emissions standards. The new diesel particulate filter has been tested and utilized in the Japanese market for several years. Its compact design allows for fewer disturbances during body installation and also safeguards the Sterling 360’s ground clearance. The engine changes also resulted in increased power, upgrading the Sterling 360’s engine from 175 to 185 hp.
Also, all Sterling 360s now come with cruise control as a standard option. The Sterling 360’s list of options also expanded with the addition of a 189-inch wheelbase on the Class 5 model, as well as a keyless entry system available on all Sterling 360 models.
