Kenworth debuts ‘collector’s item’ W900 Legacy Edition truck, only 1000 to be produced

Truck maker Kenworth gave the public a peek at a limited edition W900 this week.

On March 27, 2025, Kenworth unveiled the W900 Legacy Edition at the Mid-America Trucking Show in Louisville, Kentucky.

“Our W900 Legacy Edition is a way to celebrate the history and importance of the truck model with our customers,” said Kevin Haygood, Kenworth’s assistant general manager for sales and marketing. “We will produce 1,000 of these limited-edition trucks, and they’re sure to become a collector’s item. They’ll be powered by the Cummins X15 engine painted in legacy Cummins beige – an exclusive color for this limited edition. The Legacy Edition is the ninth limited edition W900 Kenworth has produced. In recognition of that, we are bringing back paint schemes from those past trucks and some other fan favorites.”

The company says the W900 Legacy Edition will be available in multiple configurations.

From Kenworth:

The Legacy Edition is available in Extended Day Cab, 72-inch Flat Top, and 86-inch Studio Sleeper configurations. Each Kenworth W900 Legacy Edition will be serialized – counting from 1000 down to 0001– in order of build date and sequence with a special limited-edition badge on the glovebox. The interior features a luxurious black Diamond VIT interior with platinum accents. For those ordering a sleeper, vintage tuck-and-roll adorns the sleeper back wall. Ravenwood door and dash trim compliment the Legacy Edition’s styling, while platinum accent stitching and throwback vintage Kenworth logos on trim and headrests complete the package. The Kenworth hood badges take the Legacy Edition into the past as well, utilizing the design that became popular in 1966.

The debut of the W900 Legacy Edition comes just days after Kenworth announced plans to discontinue production of a number of legacy 1.9-meter cab Class 8 trucks in 2026, including the W900 (W900L and W900B models), T800W (wide-hood), and the C500.
