It is available in both fuel efficient and high performance models as well as being sold in three versions: Day Cab, Mid Roof XT and Raised Roof. The Cascadia is the best-selling Class 8 semi truck and is popular among many large fleets.
Cascadia Evolution
The Cascadia Evolution is the more fuel efficient version equipped with the latest aerodynamic technology.
2017 Refresh
Members on Hank's Truck Forum have seen and posted pictures of a mid-cycle refresh for the Cascadia, quite possibly for the 2017 model year. The general design is the same except for a revised, bolder grille.[1]
