These trucks can operate at a total weight of 44 tonnes* and the three models represent around two thirds of the company’s sales. With these new additions, Volvo Trucks has six electric truck models in series production globally, the broadest electric truck line up in the industry.Series production of Volvo’s heaviest electric trucks will start in the Tuve factory in Gothenburg in Sweden and next year the factory in Ghent, Belgium will follow.

The batteries are supplied by Volvo Trucks’ new battery assembly plant in Ghent.
