Volvo Trucks: Redefining Indian Trucking
Volvo Trucks is committed to be an integral part of the construction business. The company provides customers with solutions that accelerate the progress of their business. Its capabilities in road construction, irrigation, quarries, etc, mirror the company’s long-term commitment and selective approach, as seen in the mining sector, through their offering of the most modern trucks.
Globally, Volvo trucks have a very strong presence and a rich experience. Their access to the best practices in construction can be leveraged to bring the same expertise to Indian users.
In 2016, the company entered the construction space very strategically, and has seeded close to 100 of its products in key construction businesses like roads, irrigation, marble & granite mining.
Like anywhere else in the world, in India too the, Volvo trucks compete in the premium European segment with an offering that maximizes productivity. Volvo trucks provide some of the best total cost of ownership (TCO) through superior fuel economy, re-sale value, and good aftermarket services.

Volvo tractors with tip-trailers for large capacity applications
The big road and infrastructure projects require handling of large quantities of material over long distances in an efficient manner. Each Volvo Tractor is built with enhanced features, strengthened chassis, and a more powerful driveline configuration, to get the difficult job done quicker and easier. The large payload capacity can be attributed to the powerful Volvo engine, superior transmission and a weight optimized design.
In extreme work environments, the trucks have to handle stress, contact with corrosive materials and maximum payloads.
