Ideal for vocational stop-and-go refuse applications, Model 320 hydraulic launch-assist (HLA) hybrid vehicle offers the potential to improve fuel economy, reduce emissions and reduce maintenance service. HLA technology recovers up to 75% of the energy normally lost as heat by vehicle’s brakes in the form of pressurized hydraulic fluid. Fluid is stored in an onboard accumulator until driver accelerates vehicle. Peterbilt Motors Co., a div. of PACCAR Inc., Denton, Texas
