About the truck

Missions can take you anywhere. To get there, you need reliable logistics that can support whatever task is at hand. Personnel, equipment, and supplies need to arrive on time. Volvo FMX Rigids are adaptable and can be made to suit the mission’s transport and logistics requirements. And the body-builder interface makes the Volvo FMX suitable for almost everything you need to carry in a variety of situations and conditions.

The optimized, efficient drivetrain ensures a particularly good operating range, reducing the need for fueling arrangements.  What’s more, the common platform approach combined with unlimited body-builder installations helps you to build the core of your fleet.
