Volvo FMX Electric
Volvo FMX Electric is designed for tougher applications and New Zealand's harshest environments in on road and off road applications. It’s an agile, powerful and quiet with minimal emissions and with new capabilities, can be charged fast. With gross combination weight of up to 65 tonnes (on application) and an improved 470km range the FMX electric offers in construction, mining, quarrying, bulk transport and more.
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 60 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 four 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.
Optimised 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 minimised performance losses. It also maximises 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.
Long-lasting energy
With flexible battery configurations, the energy-efficient system delivers up to 540 kWh of onboard energy, with up to 410 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.
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.
