Class 8 truck orders rise 18% in September as fleets turn to 2027 models
North American Class 8 net orders hit 21,300 units in September, up 18% from August and 3% year over year, as fleets began ordering model-year 2027 equipment ahead of tighter EPA 2027 emissions rules, according to FTR Transportation Intelligence. Year-to-date orders reached 263,499 units, and FTR called underlying demand “fairly solid” on fleet replacement needs, tight capacity, and firmer freight rates. The emissions transition could be costly: nonconformance penalties may add $6,000–$7,000 per truck versus an $8,000–$12,000 upcharge for a fully compliant engine.
