International TerraStar

The International TerraStar is a medium-duty truck (Class 4 and 5) that was manufactured by International Trucks from 2010 to 2015. The smallest conventional-cab truck ever produced by International, the TerraStar competed against chassis-cab vehicles derived from large pickup trucks along with the smallest versions of the Freightliner M2 and Hino 600. Though never officially designated by the company as a replacement for the 2006-2009 CityStar LCF COE, the TerraStar is of similar dimensions and GVWR.

The model line is the smallest of the International NGV model family, sharing a cab with the International DuraStar medium-duty truck. In terms of payload, the TerraStar also served as the successor to the light-GVWR 4100 series within the DuraStar range.

Following the discontinuation of the MaxxForce 7 engine, International withdrew the model line after 2015 production. For 2019, the company returned to the size segment with the International CV, produced in a joint venture by International alongside the Chevrolet 4500-6500HD medium-duty line of trucks.
