Volvo I-Save

The ultimate long haul truck

Volvo FH with Australian I-Save (Euro 6)

Volvo FH with I-Save is the ideal solution to bring down fuel consumption in long haul operations – with excellent driveability. The farther you drive, the more you can save for a more profitable operation.

Volvo FH with I-Save combines our D13TC engines with the Fuel Package*. I-Save lets you drive at lower revs and higher gear for a longer time – contributing to a smoother, quieter drive. You can also look forward to a faster torque response from the powertrain. It’s a great drive.

A productivity boost

The D13TC engine produces 300 Nm higher torque at low revs. Less acceleration and fuel will be needed to keep a steady speed in highway traffic. Working in combination with I-See, the engine makes it possible to tackle hills and gradients in a higher gear – saving fuel without losing speed and providing a smoother ride. The extra torque also enables a higher average speed, especially notable in hill climbing.

I-Shift for long haul

Designed specifically for efficient highway driving, I-Shift with long haul optimised software will save you fuel. When driving in Economy mode, every gearchange is timed precisely so that the engine can work at its most efficient rpm range.

The D13TC engine – more efficiency and torque

The D13TC is our most fuel-efficient engine ever. It comes in a 500 hp power rating and it features pistons with a patented wave-shaped interior that improves combustion and increases efficiency. Thanks to Turbo Compound technology, the D13TC engine makes full use of the available energy at every stage, delivering increased efficiency across the whole rpm range – with the best result in the 900–1400 rpm span.

I-See

I-See uses knowledge about the road ahead to utilise the truck’s kinetic energy in the best possible way when driving in hilly terrain. It takes care of gear selection, acceleration and engine braking when I-Cruise is activated. It does this by accessing data from all trucks using I-See. This information is stored in a database. As soon as any truck has driven a route, all other trucks can make use of information about the route’s topography by means of the Telematics Gateway communication unit.
