A broad range offering, from the lightweight nine-litre to the robust 12.8-litre with the latter finding work all too easy. The engines are SCR and available for Euro-4/5 with the I-Shift transmission saving weight and clutch abuse.
There are four cabs across the FM line-up; day, low sleeper, sleeper and Globetrotter. This gives it just about all the specifications from urban tractor to fleet long distance. I-Shift is arguably its biggest selling point, closely followed by the 12.8-litre engine, which is marginally overspecified Volvo has one of the strongest product identities and harmony in the industry and, in the past, operators have selected FH with the sleeper cab as a fleet truck. Its a strong contender.
