In what could be a game changing development within the commercial vehicle industry, Volvo Trucks has unveiled the first ever world stop-start engine technology for heavy duty trucks, which the company believes will increase the fuel efficiency, reduce the emissions, and improve the overall functionality of Volvo commercial trucks.
The advanced technology of the system will allow the engine to shut down automatically and seamlessly any time the truck comes to rest, be it while waiting at a red light or even while the truck is getting its cargo loaded and unloaded. The moment the driver is ready to move, the engine comes back to life instantly. While it may seem harmless, this incredibly simple technology works wonders for the operator of the truck. These fleet owners stand to save a tremendous amount of money which comes to almost 10% of the total fuel spent in a span of a year.
The fleet operators and drivers are also presented the ease and comfort that comes along the heavy duty trucks. They are also offered advanced technology in this aspect. As the company has said, their performance is never under threat and the trucks along with their engines can withstand the toughest of conditions. They have trucks that work under immense pressure and with a dryer solid throttle. The restart is reliable, powerful and smooth.
The system also works on the company’s pillar of sustainability. The functionality of the stop-start system consumes less fuel and hence lowers the crude carbon emissions, hence proving to be a piece of environmentally conscious machinery. Volvo has reinforced its stand in the market focusing on green transport and has proven to be a heavy-bull for other bulky commercial vehicles with high efficiency.
Industry analysts believe that this development may redefine the standards for commercial trucks. The favorable economics fueled by lower fuel expenditures and improved engine longevity make these Volvo trucks an unrivaled value optimization proposition for the fleet operators.
With this the inaugural launch of the heavy trucks line, Volvo Trucks has showcased its dedication to the industry. The world-first spend-of-cost and environmentally-conscious vehicle stop-start technology gives firms an opportunity to invest in trucks that offer money.
The turning point in Volvo commercial trucks and the broader commercial vehicle sector is the introduction of the stop-start engine technology. The heavy-duty vehicles excel in performance, efficiency, and sustainability, making them ideal for fleet operators keen on smart and responsible solutions to the future of transport.
