New truck range built with the driver in mind

| 4 min read | 4 min read
Volvo Trucks is introducing four new trucks, with a strong focus on the driver environment, safety and productivity.
The four new heavy duty trucks "will give our customers stronger arguments when competing to attract the best drivers," says Volvo Trucks President.

“We are really proud of this big, forward-looking investment,” says Roger Alm, President of Volvo Trucks.

The four heavy duty trucks: Volvo FH, FH16, FM and FMX, represent about two thirds of Volvo Trucks’ deliveries. 

The new Volvo FM and Volvo FMX have a brand new cab, as well as many of the same instrument display functions as their larger Volvo counterparts. Their interior volume has been increased by up to one cubic meter, providing better comfort and more working room.

In the Volvo FH and Volvo FH16 safety has been further improved with functions such as adaptive high beam headlights. The system improves safety for all road users by automatically disabling selected segments of the LED high beam when the truck approaches oncoming traffic or another vehicle from behind. 

The driver’s area now has a completely new interface for information and communication, aimed at making it easier to overview and manage different functions, creating less stress and distraction. The instrument display is fully digital, with a 12-inch screen that makes it easy for the driver to choose the information needed at any time. An optional 9-inch side display can provide infotainment, navigation assistance, transport information and camera monitoring.  

“Our new trucks will help drivers work even more safely and productively and give our customers stronger arguments when competing to attract the best drivers,” adds Roger Alm.
