The Volvo FH Electric is a flexible heavy-duty truck with high payload capabilities, great for city-to-city deliveries, construction site haulage, and longhaul applications. It’s powerful, energy-efficient, produces zero tailpipe emissions, and can be charged fast. With gross combination weight of up to 65 tonnes (on application) and an improved 470km range, with smooth handling and high power take-off outputs, the FH is suitable for a wide range of applications from tipper bodies, containers to refrigeration and bulk liquid units.
With emissions and noise regulations tightening, and increasing price pressure on diesel, the need for real CO₂ reductions is already here. Since 2019, we’ve supported transport operators in adding electric trucks to their fleets—or transitioning fully—with confidence. From selecting the right truck to comprehensive service contracts and connected digital services, we deliver solutions designed to integrate seamlessly into the way you already operate.
With up to 350 kW charging power at below 750 V, the Volvo FH Electric can be charged from 20% to 80% in around 60 minutes, which is great for depot charging or planned stops.
Cost-effective and designed for easy installation, the transmission power take-off (PTO) can run while the truck is charging, which is great for applications like mixers that need to constantly run. It’s clutch-independent and limits the need for an electro-mechanical PTO in many applications. For road-building sites that means vehicles can be driven slowly while distributing gravel.
The energy storage system on the Volvo FH Electric comes with long-lasting batteries with a potential lifespan of up to ten years. They’re optimized for the battery monitoring system that gives accurate indications when the battery is low – plus with onboard energy of up to 540 kWh you’ll get the necessary power for a wide range of applications.
The Volvo FH 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 minimised performance losses. It also maximises the recuperated energy, ensuring maximum range and energy efficiency.
We’ve created electric service solutions specifically designed to address your range, uptime, and charging concerns – from full coverage service contracts to tools that simulate the transport assignment of your electric truck. Plus, you can get access to range and energy prediction tools and a network of growing and reliable public charging locations.
Shifting to electric trucks can feel like a big step. Range simulations for any route and charging options offer real insight into the effectiveness of electric trucks for your operation.
