This is the third time the Volvo FH is elected International
Truck of the Year. It also won the award in 1994 and 2000.
"We are honoured and happy. When we introduced the new
FH in September 2012,
we claimed that it was pushing the envelope of what a
premium truck could offer. The International Truck of the Year award confirms
that the Volvo FH lives up to this promise," says Claes Nilsson, President
of Volvo Trucks.
The all-new Volvo FH is a truck built with the driver in
mind and the focus on improving the haulage firm's profitability. It boasts
important innovations in all crucial areas: fuel economy, ergonomics, handling,
active and passive safety, and time-saving features.
