A cab for a semi-truck vehicle may include a main body with a wrap around windshield providing a predetermined field of front vision and side vision. The cab may further include a seat, a rear wall, and a cabin interior accommodating a driver. The cabin interior may be located between the wrap around windshield and the rear wall and include a frontside volume and a rearside volume. A doorway formed in the main body may provide ingress to and egress from the cabin interior. A plurality of front entry steps may be disposed beneath the doorway. A door may be configured to selectively open and close the doorway, allowing direct access to the frontside volume of the cabin interior. The cab design may optimize visibility, accessibility, and interior space utilization for the driver.
