The Freightliner Cascadia is a heavy duty semi-trailer truck and the flagship model of Freightliner. It is available in both fuel efficient and high performance models as well as being sold in three versions: Day Cab, Mid Roof XT and Raised Roof.[not verified in body]

The Cascadia is the best-selling Class 8 semi truck and is popular among many large fleets.[citation needed]

Cascadia Evolution

The Cascadia Evolution is the more fuel efficient version[clarification needed] equipped with the latest[weasel words] aerodynamic technology.[citation needed]

2017 Refresh

Members on Hank's Truck Forum have seen and posted pictures of a mid-cycle refresh for the Cascadia, quite possibly for the 2017 model year. The general design is the same except for a revised, bolder grille.[1][unreliable source?]
