Volvo FH16

Cab Exterior Design

Designed to meet the highest standards.

Unmistakable: The Volvo FH16 as you know it—power and comfort perfectly balanced.

And yet it’s clear that this is a next-generation truck.

The shape of the Volvo FH16 cab is more rounded, and the gaps between the upper and lower front sections are smaller for improved aerodynamics and efficiency. The silver finish of the Volvo FH16’s unique radiator grille hints that this is something special.

The clearest sign of this evolution, however, is the headlight design, which gives the Volvo FH16 its legendary aesthetic. The striking lines of the headlights accentuate the shape of the cab and extend along the sides.

The headlights feature the black Volvo FH16 design. Even when stationary, it’s clear that this vehicle is among the most powerful ever built, while also being smarter than ever.

The new headlights are available in three different versions. Not only do they look good, but they’re also equipped with advanced features that make life on the road safer and more comfortable.

You’ll also notice that the Iron Mark at the front is larger. And if you look closely at the door area, you’ll see that the entryway features aluminum accents. Small details that make a difference.

Cab Interior

Your cab, your home.

As soon as you step into the Volvo FH16 cab, you’ll notice that the truck is different from what you’re used to—yet still feels very familiar. The colors, materials, and features are unmistakably those of the Volvo FH16. From the driver’s seat, you’ll find everything exactly where you expect it to be. Your hand rests naturally on the I-Shift gear lever, which is integrated into the seat. The entire instrument panel, however, is new. It is designed so that your hands can stay on the steering wheel and you always have the traffic in view. This gives you complete control over everything you need to do your job properly. The additional 9-inch display allows you to control truck functions, including up to eight cameras and apps.

The new user interface includes Alexa—Amazon’s cloud-based voice service. With Alexa, you can use voice commands to make calls, listen to the news, ask for directions, access audiobooks, play your favorite songs, and check road and traffic conditions. And those are just a few examples of what you can do with Alexa. The interior surfaces and materials are high-quality, regardless of the trim level. Choose from three trim levels and a wide range of colors. You’re sure to find a style that suits you.

I-Save

Saving fuel, without losing power.

The Volvo FH16 with I-Save is the ideal vehicle for reducing fuel consumption in long-haul transport—without compromising on driving performance. Thanks to turbo-compound technology, the engine makes perfect use of the available energy at every stage and delivers plenty of torque.
