EPIQ AERODYNAMIC PACKAGES

INNOVATION FOR YOUR BOTTOM LINE.

The Model 579 has set new standards with superior fuel efficiency, numerous productivity and driver comfort features,
and exceptional reliability. The Peterbilt Model 579 EPIQ delivers outstanding performance fueled by smart technology,
optimized PACCAR MX-13 and MX-11 operation, and an enhanced transmission. This improves fuel economy by up to
14% versus similarly equipped EPA 2010 compliant Peterbilt models when the full vehicle spec is optioned.

Four distinct configurations, with various fairing packages and fuel economy benefits, allow Peterbilt to
offer a Model 579 EPIQ package for virtually any customer and application.
