It was announced this month that Volvo Trucks North America has begun producing the Volvo VNL series. This will add to the company's efforts to make trucks for all kinds of people and provide quality comfort to operators.
According to the press release:
Volvo Trucks North America has officially started series production of the all-new Volvo VNL — a reimagined Class 8 truck with sleek aerodynamics and striking visual details, set to redefine the industry standards in heavy-duty trucking. Assembled at the New River Valley Assembly Plant, the Volvo Group’s largest assembly facility in the world at over 2.3 million sqft sits on 566 acres in Dublin, Va. The commercial launch of the Volvo VNL also serves as a christening of the cab plant, part of a $400 million investment by the Volvo Group in North America, underscoring Volvo’s commitment to innovation, sustainability, and excellence in the transportation industry’s future.
“We are excited to be rolling out the all-new Volvo VNL to our valued dealer partners and can’t wait for our customers to receive them into their operations to experience the future of trucking today," said Peter Voorhoeve, president of Volvo Trucks North America. "This truck was designed to change everything and represents Volvo Trucks’ dedication to innovation by combining state-of-the-art technology with unparalleled fuel efficiency, driver comfort, and safety. The all-new Volvo VNL has already set a new standard in the trucking industry, and it will provide tremendous value to our customers’ operations."

Throughout the summer, more than 1,800 customers, dealers, and sales staff participated in immersive events at the Volvo Trucks Customer Center, gaining hands-on experience with the new Volvo VNL. The truck brings industry-first packaging to simplify the spec’ing process for customers and dealers and ensures fleets are getting the maximum value available in the Volvo Trucks portfolio. Additionally, dealers’ service representatives have access to extensive competency development through e-learning and in-person, instructor-led courses from the Volvo Trucks Academy, ensuring they are fully equipped to support the Volvo VNL when it arrives at dealerships. In conjunction with the series production start, over 400 Volvo VNLs will start arriving at dealership locations across North America, providing customers with opportunities to get behind the wheel for a test drive and experience a new level of driver comfort, equipped with quality connectivity and safety.
The all-new Volvo VNL features four exterior and interior trim levels — Core, Edge, Edge Black, and Ultimate — with six cab configurations, each designed to fit customers’ preferences, brand identity, and operational needs. The initial 400 trucks will include both sleepers and day cab models, offering a variety of packages, trim levels, and powertrain offerings to give customers a first-hand experience to determine the best fit for their operations.
The Volvo VNL has a wide array of innovative features, including advanced aerodynamics for improved fuel efficiency and safety technologies like collision avoidance systems and connectivity solutions. Designed with driver comfort in mind, the truck features ergonomic seating, advanced climate control, and noise reduction features.
Volvo Trucks North America remains dedicated to pushing the boundaries and setting new standards in trucking technology. The all-new Volvo VNL models are a testament to the commitment to providing the best possible solutions for customers.
