Volvo to launch electric truck with 600 km range
The new Volvo FH Electric will be released for sale during the second half of 2025.
Volvo will launch a new long-range version of its FH Electric that will be able to reach up to 600 km on one charge, next year. This will allow transport companies to operate electric trucks on interregional and long-distance routes and to drive a full working day without having to recharge.
The new Volvo FH Electric will be released for sale during the second half of 2025.
"Our new electric flagship will be a great complement to our wide range of electric trucks and enable zero-exhaust emission transport also for the longer distances.
It will be a great solution for transport companies with a high annual mileage on their trucks and with a strong commitment to reduce CO2," said Roger Alm, President Volvo Trucks.
Volvo Trucks is a global leader in medium- and heavy-duty electric trucks with eight battery-electric models in their portfolio. The wide product range makes it possible to electrify city and regional distribution, construction, waste management and, soon, long distance transport. Volvo has so far delivered more than 3,800 electric trucks to customers in 46 countries around the world.
"The transport sector represents seven percent of global carbon emissions. Battery-electric trucks are important tools to reduce the climate footprint. Besides the important environmental gains that electric trucks bring, they offer truck drivers a much better working environment, with much lower levels of noise and vibrations," said Roger Alm.
Volvo Trucks drives the transition towards fossil-free transport to reach its net-zero emissions target by 2040 using a three-path technology strategy. The three-path technology approach is built on battery electric, fuel cell electric and combustion engines that run on renewable fuels like green hydrogen, biogas or HVO (Hydrogenated Vegetable Oil).
