Kenworth adds Meritor WABCO OnGuardActive as option on T680, T880

Meritor WABCO OnGuardActive is now available as an option on Kenworth T680 and T880 models.

The advanced radar-based safety system features forward collision warning, collision mitigation and adaptive cruise control. The system measures the truck’s position in relation to other vehicles and objects; detects moving, stopped or stationary vehicles ahead; and uses audible, visual and short brake pulse warnings to alert the driver of a possible rear-end collision. When appropriate, OnGuardACTIVE will apply the brakes to help avoid or mitigate a rear-end collision.
