Volvo Trucks says more than one million of its vehicles worldwide are now digitally connected, helping fleets and drivers work smarter, safer, and more efficiently.
In North America alone, more than 218,000 connected trucks are in customer operations — representing one in five of all Volvo trucks on the continent, the company said in a news release.
Today’s heavy trucks are equipped with advanced software systems comparable to those in passenger cars. Volvo says connectivity allows vehicles to share real-time data, enabling fleets to improve safety, fuel efficiency, and uptime while reducing the risk of unexpected repairs. For drivers and customers, the result is trucks that spend more time on the road and operate more efficiently.
“Our customers expect more than just a truck, they expect a tool that supports their business in every aspect,” said Peter Voorhoeve, president of Volvo Trucks North America. “With more than 218,000 connected trucks in North America, we are helping fleets maximize productivity and safety every day.”
