PROVEN PERFORMANCE
The Cascadia Evolution reached the 10 MPG mark with a load of 76,000 pounds on a test track. Then, it went on to hit 9.31 MPG in real-world conditions on a cross country tour with a full load. The Cascadia Evolution demonstrates a seven percent increase in fuel economy over the original EPA10-compliant Cascadia.
A NEW LEVEL OF CONNECTIVITY
The Detroit™ Connect Virtual Technician remote diagnostic system removes guesswork from repairs, enabling drivers and fleets to quickly and accurately understand warning lights.
LOWERING RCO WITH RELIABILITY

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
The Cascadia Evolution’s aerodynamic features were refined using our proprietary, state-of-the-art wind tunnel. Extensively tested on highways throughout the United States, with nearly three million miles in combined reliability and fuel economy testing.
INTEGRATED POWERTRAIN TECHNOLOGY
Detroit has designed, engineered and manufactured the DD15 engine, DT12 transmission and a full line of Detroit™ axles to work together as one integrated Detroit™ Powertrain in the Cascadia Evolution.
