Product
Volvo Group offers a full range of battery-electric trucks across all segments and by end-2025 added hydrogen fuel-cell heavy trucks via the cellcentric JV, targeting long-haul needs; fleet trials show fuel-cell trucks cut CO2-equivalent well-to-wheel emissions by ~60% versus diesel in 2024 lifecycle studies.
These heavy-duty trucks include industry-leading safety systems and SAE Level 2–3 autonomous features, aiming to raise uptime and cut driver hours; Volvo reported a 12% improvement in platooning efficiency in 2023 pilot programs and expects TCO parity with diesel for select routes by 2028.

Machines are engineered for durability and low noise—electric loaders cut noise by ~10 dB and CO2 lifecycle emissions by ~30% vs diesel in city use per 2023 LCA studies.
SDLG integration targets value segments: SDLG sold ~55,000 units in 2024, helping Volvo Group cover cost-sensitive markets while retaining shared engineering and quality standards.

The range spans sterndrive and inboard units for leisure boats and heavy-duty engines for off‑road and genset uses, with over 60,000 engines shipped in 2024.
By 2025 Volvo Penta has pivoted toward hybrid and full-electric propulsion, targeting 30% of new product launches as electric/hybrid and aligning with IMO decarbonization goals to cut CO2 intensity significantly.
