Tame the Highway

The Coronado® has the soul of a vocational truck, and that just makes it the toughest on-highway beast rolling down the road. With the power you need to charge up hills, and the efficiency you’ve come to expect from a Freightliner, the Coronado is a truly amazing on-highway machine.

Engines to Fit Your Needs

No matter what you haul, we have the perfect engine to fit your needs. From Detroit Diesel’s flagship DD platform of engines, the DD13™, DD15™ and DD16™, to the Cummins ISX, you can choose your perfect powerhouse. No matter what engine you choose, it comes with one of our new radiators, some of the biggest on the market. They improve fuel efficiency and help your engine deliver up to 600 horsepower.

All that power lives under one of the best looking hoods we’ve ever built. Made out of a single panel of fiberglass, it’s designed to take a lot of abuse, and be easily repaired if you push it too hard. If you do need to take a peek at your powerhouse, the built-in hood opening and closing assist mechanism means it only takes 40 lbs. of lifting force to get your hood up.

Controlling The Power

If you can’t get the power from the engine to the wheels, you aren’t going anywhere. With a wide range of Eaton and Allison transmissions, you get to choose the drive you want, and they all give you the power that you need. You also have the option of adding a transmission PTO so you can get the job done once you get to the worksite.

Ready for 2010

Each Coronado is equipped with everything you need to be ready for the 2010 EPA mandate. The built-in Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) System not only brings your NOx and Particulate Matter down to acceptable levels, but it can also give you up to 5% better fuel economy with a DD15 BlueTec equipped engine compared to a DD15 ’07 engine. In order to keep everything running, you’ll just have to fill up a single tank of Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF), which you can already find at hundreds of truck stops across the country.

Gulp in the Air

We’ve redesigned our intake system to make sure your engine can get all the air it needs to keep on working strong. Air enters through one of the two intakes, with optional pre-cleaners, and is sent into the hood air plenum, where most of the moisture is removed. A bellows then sends it through the new Donaldson Advanced Power Core Air Filter before heading into the engine.

Tech Friendly Electronics

The electronics systems of the Coronado are built to be strong, but make maintenance a breeze. Our new electrical harness and dashboard-wiring layout reduce wire rubbing to extend the life of your electrical components. And from the dual 76-pin connections along the front wall to the easy loop layout, we did everything we could to make repairs easier, so you can get out of the tech bay and back on the road.

Nation-Wide Network

Wherever you go across the US and Canada, we’ve got you covered. When you choose one of our support and warranty packages, we can help you get out of the tech bay and back on the road. From LA to Lincoln and Atlanta to Anchorage, when you buy a Freightliner you get the coverage you need to keep moving down the road.
