THE VOLVO TRUCKS FH TRUCK TURNS THIRTY YEARS AND IS THE BEST-SELLING TRUCK EVER
The Volvo FH, which made the history of mobility for the Swedish car manufacturer, turns thirty this year and the older it gets it becomes better and better like wine because it is the best-selling truck ever. Since it was first marketed, nearly 1.4 million units have been sold in 80 markets around the world.
In short, it is a global success, a truly perfect representation, as the president of Volvo defines it, of a customer-oriented mentality and of a model that has been going beyond borders for 30 years. In all crucial areas such as driver comfort, fuel efficiency, safety and productivity, Volvo has never stopped improving this model and today customers can order it in electric, gas and diesel versions.
As for the engine, it is a completely renewed 12-litre engine, to which is added the 16-litre engine, with a new aerodynamic cabin and an optimized chassis that lends itself to various transport applications and flexible solutions.
Thirty years have not passed in vain, indeed they have been used to dedicate ourselves to research and development to achieve an innovation to design various winning safety systems such as the driver´s airbag and the I-Shift automated gearbox, which guarantees comfortable and effort.
When the first version of the Volvo FH came out, the concept of the modern truck had already changed and therefore since then Volvo Trucks has always been committed to setting new standards in the transport sector; furthermore, since 1993 there have been five generations of this vehicle with the always unchanged formula which is to make the most of the latest technology for the working well-being of its customers. It is no coincidence that the Volvo FH has been awarded truck of the year three times internationally.
