“We are proud to be leading the transformation to zero emission transport. We have a very strong electric truck portfolio for regional, city and construction transport. Our next electric truck to the market will be running longer distances of up to 600 kilometers on one single charge,” says Roger Alm, President Volvo Trucks.
“I want to thank all transport companies, big and small, that are forerunners and investing in electric trucks. I’m so proud that you are choosing Volvo as your partner on the journey towards zero emissions. I also want to thank our dealers, suppliers and the colleagues within the Volvo Group.”
Volvo Trucks, which started serial production of electric trucks in 2019, now has 8 electric truck models in its product range and has delivered more than 4,800 electric trucks in total to customers worldwide.
“The footprint of our electric trucks is increasing rapidly. Our total fleet has now rolled more than 140 million kilometers in customer operations all over the world. More and more electric trucks are out there, driving in new geographical areas and cutting emissions for our customers, every day. That is great to see,” says Roger Alm.
