Volvo FMX Electric

The Volvo FMX Electric is an agile, powerful truck with zero tailpipe emissions and a gross combination weight of up to 65 tonnes. It’s quiet and can be charged fast, handles smoothly, and has power take-off outputs that make it suitable for a wide range of applications, like concrete mixers and cranes. The robust, compact design is perfect for construction site terrain and transport operations in tight city areas.

Everything you need to go electric

As emissions and noise requirements tighten in certain operations, electric trucks are becoming a viable solution where conditions are right. Since 2019, we’ve been helping transport operators introduce electric trucks smoothly. From the right vehicle to comprehensive service contracts and connected digital services, we support every part of the transition.

Fast charging capabilities

Great for depot charging or planned stops, the Volvo FMX Electric supports a combined charging system (CCS) with fast charging, the industry standard for heavy-duty electric transport. With up to 350 kW charging power at below 750 V, it can charge from 20% to 80% in around 65 minutes.

Power where you need it

Cost-effective and designed for easy installation, the transmission power take-off (PTO) can run while the truck is charging or driving, which is great for applications like mixers that need to constantly run.

Energy to suit your needs

Tailor your Volvo FMX Electric with anything from two to six battery packs, and store up to 540 kWh. Fewer batteries enable a shorter wheelbase, which makes the truck easier to maneuver in the city.

Optimized for electric

The Volvo FMX Electric is equipped with a powerful and energy-efficient electric drive unit. With a twin engine developed with powershift, you get low energy consumption, smooth acceleration, seamless gear shifting, and minimized performance losses. It also maximizes the recuperated energy, ensuring maximum range and energy efficiency.

All in one unit

The Volvo FMX Electric has a powerful and energy-efficient drive unit that integrates the driveline, power electronics, and transmission. With two electric motors and an eight speed transmission with powershift, you get seamless gear shifting and smoother acceleration.

Power, made useful

Developed for a range of applications the electrical power take-off (ePTO) delivers reliable electric power with easy body builder access, making integration simple and efficient.

The components are arranged to display both the internal module stack and the outer casing design.

Long-lasting energy

With flexible battery configurations, the energy-efficient system delivers up to 540 kWh of onboard energy, with up to 475 kWh available for use.

Engineered for controlled, efficient driving

Advanced drivability features designed to support the driver with smooth low-speed control, confident traction, and responsive performance.

Conveyor structures, storage tanks, and industrial equipment surround the scene, indicating active operations at an aggregate or quarry processing site.

One-pedal driving

Great for in the city or on the highway, one-pedal driving offers stronger retardation power and the possibility to select a suitable retardation level for a smoother ride.

Auto Go​ 

Keeps the vehicle moving at a set minimum speed, which is perfect for tippers driving at low speeds.  At a standstill, when the brake pedal is released the truck will start to move at a speed of 1,5km/h.

Change Direction​

​Faster and smoother transition from forward to reverse, with direction changes possible of up to 30 km/h – ideal for tight maneuverability on construction sites.

Active Grip Control​

Excellent traction grip and startability on surfaces like ice or building site gravel.
