VOLVO TRUCKS

Volvo produced its first truck in the 1920s when trucks were regarded as a complement to horse-drawn wagons, railways and sea transportation. The first Volvo trucks rolled off the lines in 1928 and were shaft-driven with pneumatic tires. The driver sat in a fully enclosed cab. Volvo considers the 1960s to be a good decade for truck drivers. Cabs were fitted with rubber suspension systems, and drivers could enjoy the benefits of sprung seats.

The 1970s marked years of refinement in the truck industry. Turbochargers were commonly integrated, increasing the horsepower and average speeds. During these years, the Volvo F10/F12 was produced and would eventually set a trend for truck design for many years to come.

In the 2000s, comfort and environmental characteristics have become very high priority considerations. Also, the emergence of IT systems and increasing cooperation between different forms of transportation has contributed to better transport solutions.
