Kenworth Truck Company is an American truck manufacturer. Kenworth, founded in 1923 as the successor to Gersix Motor Company, specializes in the production of heavy (Class 8) and medium-duty (Class 5–7) commercial vehicles. Kenworth, headquartered in the Seattle suburb of Kirkland, Washington, has been a 100% subsidiary of PACCAR since 1945, operating together with sister company (and market competitor) Peterbilt Motors.
Kenworth has achieved several firsts in truck production; the company introduced a sleeper cab with a raised roof and the first heavy truck with an aerodynamically optimized body design. The Kenworth W900 has been in continuous production since 1961, serving as one of the longest production runs of any vehicle in automotive history. The K100 was also introduced in 1961.
