Volvo Unveils Electric Truck with 600 km Range

Volvo's new FH Electric truck will offer a groundbreaking 600 km range on a single charge, enabling long-distance, zero-emission transport for the first time in electric trucking.

The new long-range FH Electric model, releasing in 2025, targets transport companies needing reliable, all-day operation without recharging, revolutionizing interregional and long-haul trucking.

Volvo's innovative e-axle technology enhances battery capacity, enabling the extended 600 km range by integrating motor, gearbox, and axle into a single, space-efficient unit.

With eight electric truck models, Volvo leads the global transition to battery-electric trucks, delivering over 3,800 vehicles across 46 countries, electrifying various transport sectors.

Volvo Trucks' commitment to net-zero emissions by 2040 includes a three-path strategy, focusing on battery electric, fuel cell electric, and renewable fuel-powered combustion engines.

The FH Electric's extended range results from more efficient batteries, improved battery management systems, and overall powertrain efficiency, supporting long-distance zero-emission transport.

The new FH Electric truck provides a quieter, vibration-free working environment for drivers, enhancing comfort while significantly reducing the transport sector's climate footprint.

Despite challenges like high costs and inconsistent policies, Volvo's continued investment in green technologies positions it at the forefront of the heavy-duty electric truck market.
