Volvo Construction Equipment unveiled its biggest and boldest articulated hauler launch to date. The new range is designed to meet the modern-day need for connected solutions, productivity performance and emission reduction, with the human at the center.
Volvo CE's update represents a complete overhaul of its existing articulated hauler lineup, now ranging in size from A25-A60.
An entirely new model, the A50, has been introduced, increasing customer opportunities in the demanding hauler segment.
The range delivers key innovations, such as a new electronic system, upgraded cab for superior operator comfort and safety, and an in-house developed transmission designed to adapt to future drivetrains.
With over 35 percent of its total range renewed over the last 12 months, this marks the latest step in Volvo CE´s largest product portfolio renewal in decades.
Volvo CE, the pioneer behind the world's first articulated hauler "Gravel Charlie" in 1966, announced the launch of a new lineup of world-class articulated haulers, which is set for stepwise introductions on markets globally during 2025.
The updated models mark a significant technological leap forward due to key innovations such as a new electronic system and an in-house developed transmission, delivering fuel efficiency improvements of up to 15 percent depending on model and industrial application. Furthermore, the machines' new design has been constructed in such a way as to adapt over time to fit future drivetrains, the manufacturer said.
A highlight of this launch is the all-new A50 model, which expands customer opportunities in the demanding hauler segment. This addition, available in selected markets, underscores Volvo CE's commitment to meeting the evolving needs of its customers by enhancing operational capabilities and offering more choices.
The result is cutting-edge, safe and productive machines that have been purpose-built to lower total cost of ownership and respond to the challenges of today and tomorrow across the toughest of work sites, especially when combined with Volvo CE's pioneering digital solutions, such as the Haul Assist with onboard weighing.
Melker Jernberg, President of Volvo CE, said, "For nearly 60 years we have been leading the way with our range of articulated haulers and now with today's launch of a new range of outstanding products, including one completely new model, we prove that there are no limits to our capacity for innovation.
"Our customers know to expect a first-class operation when they get into one of our haulers, but that experience has just got even better with a host of cutting-edge features designed with our customers in mind."
Developed to be among the most fuel-efficient hauling solutions on the market, the new models also have been built with a focus on sustainability. This includes the introduction of low carbon emission steel — made from recycled materials and produced using fossil free electricity and biogas — in serial production of haulers manufactured at the Braås site. Given steel is a major component in Volvo CE products — and traditionally generates significant carbon emissions — material circularity is another example of Volvo CE taking action across its operations to achieve net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2040.
This launch is part of Volvo CE's most extensive product portfolio overhaul in decades, with over 35 percent of its range renewed in the past 12 months. It marks a pivotal step in the company's ongoing commitment to innovation and leadership in the construction equipment industry.
Like in 1966, the new generation haulers once again set the industry benchmark for innovation and best-in-class operation.
