Fuel is everything. And because every drop counts, we’ve pioneered world-leading technologies, developed innovative services and devised fuel saving strategies that make a big difference to your bottom line.
Our engine range has been meticulously engineered to save fuel without compromising performance. We optimised the combustion chamber geometry. Designed vertical, centrally positioned unit injectors. Increased the gas-fill ratio…
We could go on (and on) about our technical achievements. What’s most important about these innovations is the difference they make to your bottom line. And to the environment.
I-Shift maximizes performance and efficiency by monitoring and responding to vehicle mass, road inclination, speed and acceleration. It reduces fuel consumption by up to 5% compared to a manual gearbox. And up to 7% when combined with I-Roll momentum technology. It’s also really easy to use.
Using the right tyres, at the correct pressure and on correctly aligned wheels and axles, can reduce fuel consumption by up to 14%. Our studies across Europe show that two out of three trucks have incorrectly aligned axles and wheels. So there’s a lot to be gained for very little effort.
Keep hitting your fuel targets. And watch them shrink as you become more efficient. Subscribe to our Fuel Advice service and you’ll be allocated a personal fuel coach. With their regular analysis, expert guidance and on-hand support, you’ll be saving fuel in no time, and improving year after year.
Together, Dynafleet and driver training you can save up to 7% fuel.
Meet our intelligent fleet-management system. Follow the performance of your trucks and drivers in real time, view automatically generated fuel-efficiency rankings. Then make comparisons, spot trends and implement profitable, fuel-saving changes.
Our Efficient Driving course helps you get the most out of every drop of fuel. Part of our Volvo Trucks Driver Development programme, the proven systematic approach creates fuel-efficient driving patterns and sustainable, long-term savings – and is most effective in conjunction with Dynafleet reports.
An airflow package can improve your fuel economy by as much as 8%. It reduces turbulence, minimises air resistance and deflects wind away from the trailer. As well as saving fuel and money, it also reduces CO2 emissions, which is great for the environment.
