Volvo Trucks

The latest generation of heavy-duty electric trucks are built from experience to deliver for you today. But now with greater flexibility, increased payload and more range than ever before.

Seven years ago, Volvo Trucks set out to electrify heavy transport with a clear goal: to deliver trucks that perform as well as their diesel counterparts while reducing CO2 emissions. What began with a handful of prototypes has become one of the most complete electric truck line-ups in the world.

Now, the next generation of Volvo FH, FM and FMX Electric trucks take that experience even further. The updated FH, FM, and FMX Electric – form the backbone of a new electric heavy-duty range designed to fit many operations. In fact, with some contracts today won or lost on sustainability, fleets can tackle even more segments and routes with electric trucks than before.

From urban and regional distribution to construction, road maintenance and refuse collection, the new electric trucks are designed to mirror diesel operations across a wide range of applications. For both bodybuilders and drivers, the working principles remain familiar, allowing electric trucks to be integrated into existing fleets with minimal disruption.

Mirror your fleet without compromise

To effectively mirror your diesel fleet’s uptime, we recommend charging the trucks where they naturally spend the most time such as depots, loading yards, rest areas.

For single-shift trucks parked overnight, a slow or mid-speed depot charger is perfect and cheapest. When drivers understand how to get the most from their trucks, everyone wins – the operation runs smoothly, costs go down and overall emissions are reduced.
