(MENAFN- GlobeNewsWire - Nasdaq) Dublin, Sept. 26, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "North America Class 6 Truck Market Opportunity, Growth Drivers, Industry Trend Analysis, and Forecast 2025-2034" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets's offering.
The North America Class 6 Truck Market was valued at USD 4.92 billion in 2024 and is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 7.2% to reach USD 9.47 billion by 2034.

The region's medium-duty truck segment is undergoing a significant transformation as demand for regional logistics, vocational applications, and last-mile delivery continues to surge. Fleet operators are increasingly favoring Class 6 trucks for their ability to strike the right balance between payload, power, and fuel efficiency. These vehicles are gaining prominence in municipal services, urban freight routes, and infrastructure-related operations. With a growing push for cleaner, more intelligent transport, operators are transitioning toward connected and more sustainable fleets.

This shift is being supported by changing emissions standards, the rise of electric models, and improved telematics integration. Recent developments in e-commerce and logistics, particularly after the pandemic, have driven companies to modernize their fleets by embracing predictive analytics and real-time monitoring. State-level grants and electrification incentives are further accelerating this trend, particularly among utility fleets and city governments incorporating sustainability mandates into vehicle procurement. Innovation in chassis and drivetrain platforms is becoming essential for maintaining brand competitiveness in this increasingly dynamic market.
The diesel segment held a 64% share in 2024 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 6% through 2034. The diesel-powered Class 6 truck segment continues to lead due to its extensive fueling infrastructure, robust technology base, and strong track record in long-haul and demanding operations. Most medium-duty fleets remain diesel-centric, benefiting from the reliability and range that diesel engines offer. Major OEMs offering diesel platforms have managed to retain their edge by meeting evolving emissions standards while preserving engine efficiency and power delivery for heavy-duty tasks.
The box body configuration segment held a 46% share in 2024 and is forecasted to grow at a CAGR of 7% through 2034. Its enclosed, built, and secure structure makes it a preferred choice across a wide array of industries - from retail logistics and wholesale distribution to consumer shipping. Box body trucks are integral to regional logistics and remain vital for businesses needing secure, versatile, and weather-resistant freight solutions.
U.S. Class 6 truck market held an 87% share and generated USD 4.31 billion in 2024. The country's leadership is driven by its expansive highway systems, advanced logistics capabilities, and consistent demand across last-mile, urban, and regional transport sectors. The strength of local assembly, innovation pipelines, and well-supported aftermarket services continues to elevate the market's maturity.
Key players involved in the North America Class 6 Truck Market include OEMs such as Navistar, Mack Trucks, Ford, Peterbilt Motors, Volvo Trucks, PACCAR, Daimler Truck, Isuzu Commercial Truck, Lion Electric, and Hino Motors either headquartered or operating extensively within the US, the region enjoys a robust supply chain and high frequency of product updates. Key players are focusing on platform-level upgrades to boost fuel efficiency, reduce emissions, and extend vehicle life cycles. Investments in electric drivetrains and alternative fuels are accelerating to meet sustainability regulations and customer demands.

Companies are also integrating advanced telematics for real-time diagnostics, remote monitoring, and enhanced fleet visibility. Collaborations with state programs and energy agencies are helping OEMs secure funding and streamline deployment of zero-emission models. Modular vehicle designs are being introduced to offer greater flexibility across industries. Moreover, partnerships with technology providers are enabling seamless connectivity for predictive maintenance and route optimization.
