Western Star 57X

Western Star goes premium on-highway.

Introduced in 2022 as Western Star's all-new on-highway tractor, the 57X is the most fuel-efficient truck the brand has ever built, running 5.8 percent more efficient than the 5700XE it replaced. It pairs Gen 5 Detroit DD13, DD15 and DD16 power with reworked cab and chassis aerodynamics, including flexible chassis skirts that fill the gap between cab and chassis.
