2016 Volvo Truck Aerodynamic Enhancements

Sleek design for maximum fuel efficiency

The latest Volvo Truck VNL updates feature the most aerodynamic and fuel-efficient package yet.  In fact, it offers up to 3.5 percent fuel savings when paired with an aero trailer compared to the previous package.  Here are the new features:

The Volvo VNL series trucks feature a redesigned aero bumper and lower airflow deflector, which quickly attach air to the truck and efficiently channel airflow rearward.

A redesigned roof air deflector better complements the aerodynamic roof fairing and adjustable trim tab. Together, they help keep the air attached and smooth out costly turbulence between the cab and trailer.

The driver sees comforting wide angle views. Your fleet sees fuel savings. The aerodynamic design of our mirror assembly reduces turbulence by attaching air more quickly to the tractor.

Our new “smart” fan clutch increases fuel efficiency by 0.7% by only running the fan when extra cooling is necessary, varying fan speed based on cooling needs.
