Despite the fact that cab-over-engine (COE) trucks were created precisely to be the best adapted to the strict and peculiar regulations prior to the 1980s, many manufacturers considered that this design still had potential for improvement. Among them was Kenworth, who decided to eliminate any prejudice and develop their own ultra-efficient truck without having a pre-established direction of how it had to look.
The result was the well-known Kenworth Cab Beside Engine (CBE), a truck whose cab had literally been cut in half and one of its sides removed. Although it might seem like a fairly radical measure, on paper these changes made it possible to transport up to half a ton of extra cargo, but not without first sacrificing any idea of comfort, appearance, and in a certain way, even safety. Discover this story and how the truck without one of its halves almost consolidated itself in the American market.
