Freightliner Trucks announced Monday at the Alternative Clean Transportation (ACT) Expo in Long Beach, Calif. it now offers factory-installed liquefied natural gas (LNG) fuel tanks for the Cascadia 113, joining the LNG and CNG offerings in the 114SD and the M2 112, which have been available as a factory-installed option since 2009.

The factory-installed LNG tanks on the Cascadia 113, which are constructed of stainless steel, are available in a variety of configurations, with capacity up to 300 LNG gallons – 142 diesel gallon equivalent (DGE) – giving trucks a range of approximately 600 miles. Freightliner Trucks also offers factory-installed compressed natural gas (CNG) tank packages on the Cascadia 113, with capacities of up to 190 DGE
