Paccar

The ongoing global semiconductor shortage continues to affect some industries, including the automotive sector. The shortage has reduced Paccar's truck deliveries in the third quarter by about 7,000 vehicles — now about 33,000 vehicles compared to 40,100 vehicles delivered in the second quarter of 2021. Paccar anticipates that the semiconductor shortage and associated production inefficiencies will continue in the fourth quarter, with global truck production strengthening when the supply disruptions are resolved. Global demand for the new Kenworth, Peterbilt and DAF trucks remains strong, according to the company. In addition to its light-, medium- and heavy-duty trucks, Paccar also designs and manufactures advanced powertrains, provides financial services and information technology, and distributes truck parts.
