The Kenworth W990[1] is a licensed 8x4 truck in SnowRunner, introduced as a part of the Kenworth W990 DLC.
One of the newest Kenworth trucks. It is equipped with a powerful engine, a modern transmission with a differential lock, and its updated design provides more efficient aerodynamics and lower fuel consumption. This model is also equipped with a lifting axle, which allows better distribution of the weight of the truck.
