A new 38 tonne tandem drive axle enables efficient pulling of combinations up to 325 tonnes.

Additionally, Volvo’s I-Shift with crawler gears lets FH16 starts with heavy loads in poor road conditions, crawl slow with full control and run lean on fast routes. The I-Shift makes it beyond easy to drive safely and efficiently. And the I-Shift driving modes are easier than ever to use.
