The new-generation Volvo FH 460 with I-Save was recently field tested on the 343 km Green Truck test route near Munich. With an incredible 22.70 l / 100 km, Volvo's flagship has set a new record for fuel efficiency, ahead of other renowned truck manufacturers.
The new Volvo FH with I-Save technology is part of the new generation Volvo Trucks launched in spring 2020. I-Save technology includes many fuel-saving solutions, most notably the 13-liter Volvo D13TС turbocharged engine. It was released in early 2019 and is currently the most fuel efficient engine in the company.
The 2020 Volvo FH with I-Save technology is available in a version that reduces fuel costs by 10%. Compared to the previous generation, which delivered 7% fuel savings, this translates into a significant improvement of 3 additional percentage points. “Reducing fuel consumption and, as a result, lower CO2 emissions, is critical for all transport companies, especially those who carry out long-distance transportation. With the new Volvo FH with I-Save technology, we are giving transport companies even more opportunities to reduce operating costs and environmental impact, ”says Jessica Sandström, Senior Vice President Product Management Volvo Trucks.
