A CELEBRATION OF TRUCK DRIVERS
Every component and every conceivable space has been meticulously designed to make you more comfortable – whether you’re behind the wheel, resting or sound asleep in the bunk.

A SPACIOUS CAB
The upright A-pillars, low engine tunnel and high roof makes for a really spacious cab. And it is – even for tall drivers, the standing height is a whopping 220 centimetres.

LOADS OF ROOM FOR YOUR STUFF
You can bring a lot in this cab. The spacious front, under-bunk, rear and exterior storage can be tailored to your exact needs. And there are plenty of clever compartments for smaller items, too.

A BIGGER HOME ON THE ROAD
Are you looking for more space and comfort? Discover the extended Globetrotter XXL cab with a bed that’s 250 mm wider and 130 mm longer than in the Globetrotter XL. Home away from home doesn’t get more comfortable than this.

WIDE AND COMFORTABLE BED
The lower bunk offers a comfortable rest with up to 1065 mm width (Globetrotter XXL cab). You can even choose a manual or electrically controlled bunk that inclines to 55 degrees – perfect when resting, reading or watching TV.

CLEVER AND COMFORTABLE STEERING
The fully adjustable steering wheel, which comes with a 20-degree necktilt function, makes driving more comfortable. Conveniently controlled by a foot pedal, you can also move it out the way when you enter or exit the cab.

A CLASS-LEADING SEAT
The seat adjustment range is world class. You can move it 24 centimetres from front to back and 10 centimetres up or down. The shape also gives superior lateral support and provides improved support for those with longer legs.

ECC WITH AIR-QUALITY SENSORS
The electronic climate control has improved air vents and a multitude of sensors and filters that purify the air before it fills your lungs. The result is unprecedented air quality, improved defrosting and a draft-free environment.

Easy-to-use navigation, Dynafleet, improved communication and quality audio entertainment. Volvo Trucks’ integrated system for services and infotainment brings these features together in one interface – a seven-inch touch screen. Operate it manually, via voice commands, and through steering wheel buttons.

Rethink your in-cab experience.

EASY-TO-USE
Simplify control of your services and infotainment. And feel the benefits: a better, safer driving experience, easier navigation and more efficient fleet management.

This system combines the cab’s audio and entertainment unit with the Dynafleet and navigation functions.

Integration of services and infotainment means they’re easy to operate. Touch the screen, hit the steering wheel buttons or use your voice. Whatever suits you best.

Voice activated
A seven-inch touch screen provides easy operation. You can also control the functions via buttons on the steering wheel, or with your voice. Two Bluetooth connections also mean that you can connect two devices at the same time – perhaps your work mobile and your private phone.

Navigation
The Dynafleet OnBoard is directly integrated with the navigation system. Fleet managers can send destinations from the Dynafleet web portal to the navigation.

The navigation system accepts a range of direction inputs – including addresses, coordinates or a touch on the onscreen map.

Dynafleet OnBoard
Keep your assignments on track. Stay in touch with the office. Plan driving and resting times, and let Driver Coaching help you become more fuel-efficient. The system and all its functions are integrated with the navigation in the driver interface.

A powerful sound package
Get access to Deezer or TuneIn and stream your favourite audio entertainment. Switch on the DAB radio. Connect via USB, AUX or Bluetooth to your smartphone or tablet. Then, six speakers and a power output of 4×35W give a robust sound experience. You can add more speakers to your system to make playback even more perfect.

A sheltering cab
The FH16 can be delivered with an improved insulation of the cab. It means an even more comfortable cab climate when resting even if it’s chilly outside. Or hot.

Energy-efficient lighting
Thirteen energy-efficient and powerful light sources illuminate the cab. Lighting is easily controlled, either with three pre-set options or with the dimmer. When you’re driving in the dark, you can even switch to red lights to enhance your night vision.

Sleeper panel
The advanced sleeper panel lets you control the interior lights, alarm clock, parking heater, parking cooler, audio system, windows, roof hatch and locks. Without ever leaving the bunk.

TV ready
Your Volvo FH16 can be factory-prepared with everything you need to plug and play a 19” TV – which you can connect through the cab’s fantastic audio system.

It’s more than a key
Lock or unlock the cab from a distance or use it as a main switch to reduce the electrical power consumption. Turn on the lights so you can approach safely. And if you feel threatened, push the panic button to blast the horn.

Our engine range has been meticulously engineered to save fuel – without compromising performance. We optimised the combustion chamber geometry. Designed vertical, centrally positioned unit injectors. Increased the gas-fill ratio…

We could go on (and on) about our technical achievements. What’s most important about these innovations is the difference they make to your bottom line. And to the environment.

Get to know our engines

I-Shift maximises performance and efficiency by monitoring and responding to vehicle mass, road inclination, speed and acceleration. Coupled to a Volvo diesel engine, it reduces fuel consumption compared to a manual gearbox.

Say hello to I-Shift

As you drive, I-See uses information about the road gradient to manage speed and gear changes in the most fuel efficient way. By taking advantage of the truck’s kinetic energy, the system can reduce your fuel consumption by up to 5%. The biggest savings are made on gentle slopes, but I-See saves you fuel on almost every gradient.

ALIGN YOUR WHEELS AND INFLATE YOUR SAVING
Using the right tyres, at the correct pressure and on correctly aligned wheels and axles, can reduce fuel consumption by up to 14%. Our global studies show that two out of three trucks have incorrectly aligned axles and wheels. So there’s a lot to be gained for very little effort.

CAB SPOILER PACKAGE
A cab spoiler package can improve your fuel economy by as much as 8%. It reduces turbulence, minimises air resistance and deflects wind away from the trailer. As well as saving fuel and money, it also reduces CO2 emissions, which is great for the environment.
