The New Volvo FH16 750 Truck

[@kennyaws0me]

No, that's what it's all about. The fact that a lighter truck is pulling heavier loads, making it more efficient.

[@douglascharga7017]

Volvo is the best ever, same in the usa

[@Xantec]

looks like volvo has just joined the flat(enned) earth society! 750bhp means even the steepest of hills will be stormed up as if they were simply not there

[@029558098]

Thank you very good for VDO

[@AlexDeLarge90]

@Xantec Isn't insane amounts of torque more important in a truck?? Really useful when you are pulling 40 tons up a hill.

[@fernandocenteno4562]

That most precious truck!!

[@bravozulu51]

This truck is built with multi trailer operation in mind, we have B Doubles and triples now in Australia, not to mention the A trains already used for many many years ..the B Double gross can be up to 68 tonne so the 750 would be in its element.

[@kennyaws0me]

It's sad we don't have these trucks here in the US. There are so many trucker here bitching about fuel costs and the lack of space they have for maneuvering. Trucks like these would make American trucking more efficent and easier.

[@dhcars8911]

@darius9t2 Both 16litre, doesn't matter if it's in straight 6 or V8. Both Scania and Volvo produce the best trucks on the market.

[@fj9fl61]

are there any manual/stick shifts left now or are they all i-shift on volvos?

[@divinodim4474]

[@aaronguenther5217]

Worlds BEST , VOLVO

[@abdelhadijandory5454]

Merci volvo pour les cours

[@bitang69]

@christoffera You talk nonsense.The power/torque of V8 730 is limitated cause of the gearbox,that engine can produce much more power and torque.I'm curious how much power can Volvo squeeze from that tiny L6.Anyway not so much as a V8.V8 engine gives a special feelings unlike the L6.

[@Grumpy_old_Boot]

@dhcars I thought the new Scania v8 engine was an 18 litre ?

[@matavaso]

BEST OF THE BEST TRUCK

[@kennyaws0me]

This truck has a plated gross combination weight of over 88,000lbs. This truck is very useful.

[@gurkan2475]

It's so beautiful.

[@vaztion]

750 HP and UFFFFF!.....3550Nm!! If I ever need to pull out a montain....

[@harrygoozee]

2:02 been in that one, its nice.

[@antoniotrolopio4993]

il volvo e una grande macchina

[@kennyaws0me]

What kind of truck do you drive? What is the weight of the truck empty?

[@1996zeeshan]

how much will one of these set you back?

[@Jimpank90]

well, I do belive that the engines have the same cylinder volume 16 000cc in both?

[@777Bauhaus]

@777Bauhaus for heavy transport? for heavy transport 550 / 600 are still enough too ;)

[@kennyaws0me]

Yeah it should. I have a friend who drives a 2005 columbia straight truck with a 26 ft reefer box. Empty it weights more than 28,000 pounds. The max weight of a load he can carry could be no more than 13,000. American trucks are just starting to get lighter now. I see less of the big long nose trucks like the pete 379. I see a lot of volvo 670s and 780s, my favortie American truck.

[@Grumpy_old_Boot]

@dhcars Ah, so it is, I stand corrected. Still, 16 litres isn't exactly a small engine. :)

[@keyboardarctica]

Scania: engines is the strongest Volvo: Powertrain is the strongest

[@egonzamba]

YEs , you are Right,!! with this kind of truck you can do turns much easier!

[@Leffens1966]

Den här Volvon har inte 750 hk utan det är en vanlig 700 hk. När jag sökte på WAT206 så enligt Transportstyrelsen är det en FH16 med 700 hk. Varför skriver ni att det är 750 hk då för?

[@GoslingBateman]

My preferred truck in ETS 2

[@routieralgerien1252]

Lol

[@dashcam55]

Can I get one in an FL body for a frontlift truck?

[@kennyaws0me]

A typical truck with a sleeper around 60 to 70 inch, is about 20,000 pounds. So with that trailer, if it's made of aluminum, you have 35,000 pounds. Then you have to add fuel. All this before the load is put on. When I go though scales, i can have no more than 12,000 on the steers, 32,000 on the drives(2 axles) and 32,000 on the tandems.

[@tom27151]

i only hope that someday volvo is getting their crap together in norh america.there is still a long way to go.

[@leodevil240mph]

Because a 750 would be more relaxed delivering 500 hp at work than a 550.

[@3dmax911]

i have an fh12 420 and it is the best truck i have

[@douglascharga7017]

The classic Peterbilt and Kenworth are beautiful too, but I follow a brazilian trucker of USA that drove the Volvo 780 and Peter 589. To me Volvo is better and the driver said it too. Perhaps the older are better. You may watch him at Vlog18rodas.

[@VuDu4000]

[@rafael39114]

[@2smilehappy]

trying to think why would you need 750hp? A lot of road trains in oz with GCM of 125t(275,000lb) only have 550-600hp and only bogie drive. Guess its good to have the option with say mining and tri drive with that set up to sell even if not that common :)

[@PhongSubi]

"750 hp and 3550 Nm" như vậy là khỏe bằng xe tăng hạng trung rồi ...

[@kennyaws0me]

No, you're going off the topic of this conversation. The more payload a truck can carry, the more efficent it is. That's my point. So what if I compared a two axle truck to a three axle truck. They are both over the road trucks with sleepers.

[@Cheesylemon]

Nice, but don't see the point of 750bhp in a 38t tractor unit. It's ok in the 44t and heavy haulage units though.

[@andify96]

@thumperdaddyrabbit its maybe because usa doesent use fh trucks. i cant be sure, but ive never seen a fh truck in usa at work

[@Grumpy_old_Boot]

@dhcars True, true. Not the *only* reason why they do, but definately one of them.

[@duplessis2006]

massive toolbox/storage

[@bravozulu51]

Just what I thought when the trailer was about to go over it....

[@kennyaws0me]

Go back to our first comments. They were about payloads and the practicality of US trucks vs Euro trucks. I'm not playing dumb.

[@ronnipetersson]

i remember the f16 with the same paint

[@TRYORUMSUZ19]

how many ??

[@kennyaws0me]

Go to their web site. Look up the specs.

[@thumperdaddyrabbit]

why cant we get this truck in usa?

1:37 Are you telling me this little single-axle truck has 750 HP? Why would anyone put 750 HP in it?!

[@opoja5e]

@apalsenberg what ever ^.^ thanks :)

[@arismarssian]

from 1987 to2015 the same 16 litre engine., how have they increased 280 horse power.

[@wambogojonah316]

Aris Mardirossian Not same engine, the first 16L was kind of problematic in extreme conditions and then a completely new unit was designed released around 2003

[@Anderson1974ify]

Logo romperemos a barreira dos 800 hp.

[@andify96]

@thumperdaddyrabbit or maybe its to expencive to export the expencive fh trucks all the way from scandinavia to usa

[@TheJACKO1310]

exelente es mi sueño

[@joseportillo2555]

I wish US would start using this trucks I would rather drive

[@johndonovan7018]

no you wouldnt. there is no space inside.

[@fp08frwi]

@777Bauhaus I agree

[@kennyaws0me]

When I say payload, I mean the weight of the load vs the weight of the truck empty. The most my loads could weigh is around 30,000 to 35,000lbs. Which makes no sence because that's more truck than load.

[@kennyaws0me]

That's a typical dry van trailer. A flatbed trailer would weigh a little less and a reefer trailer would weight more becuse of the reefer engine and fuel. The total interstate weight in the US is 80,000 pounds, exept in Michigan, where a truck can have 11 axles at 13,000 pounds per axle.

[@kminchaoui]

volvo = sweden = scandinavia = viking = volviking the road.

[@scaniavabis79]

@david87758 Deixa lá , a Scania já está a fabricar a R 800

[@rafals3649]

well trucks in usa are looking good aswell and maybe because i see a lot of european trucks i am bored of them so thats why i prefer the ones from usa

[@kennyaws0me]

My mistake, I mean 34,000 on the drives and 34,000 on the tandems

[@kennyaws0me]

A Fh16 750, weights 16,000 lbs.

[@777Bauhaus]

why do u need 750hp? 400hp are still enough O.-

[@dhcars8911]

@Jesus45U That's why truck engines produce a lot of torque. :p

[@_JohnDoe]

0:40 Isn't this location the same as 0:50 in this video watch?v=_Ef7vsAFY7g ?

[@stathisscania]

even if it's a 520 or 700 or 750 volvo it can't go on an uphill road next to a Scania 143 500 ;) volvo trucks will never go uphill like scania do! And of course i'm talking for both trucks loaded with the same weight

[@iini2726]

เจ๋ง..ค่ะ

[@bendzo129]

now we get the fact; ALL NEW VOLVO..ETC even a 2012 truck LOL!

[@ClaudioSL619]

@777Bauhaus for heavy transport

[@kennyaws0me]

Dude, there is no way european trucks weight more than american trucks. The only truck that would be lighter is the Argosy.

[@Mike2Stroke]

it can pull a hole fkin house!

[@thumperdaddyrabbit]

@BAwithBALLS All americans dont think that way. Its just the only choice we have. but speaking of plastic, this cabover looks pretty plastic like to me compared to an aluminum hooded peterbilt with steel and chrome bumpers. and the dash is sure plastic like just like a commuter car. so, i dont think it has anything to do with plastics.... but, america in the past used to like cabover trucks. but it seems we went away from that. and the bridge wheelbase laws..idk? any ideas?

[@BimBims]

In ETS 4, i choose this one.

[@grilicozone]

+Bim Bims LOL ETS4 will not existe.

[@christoffera]

@bitang69 Scania is at a turning point. If they want to keep beening in the HP run, with Volvo they will have to make a 6L Engine, Because the cooling on the V8 isnt good enought. The experts think MAN and Scania will build a 6L eninge together, to keep up with volvo! Scania is a good truck, but V8 is running old! Volvo, always a step ahead! And btw... Volvo penta Marine can easily handle 1700hp, cause its a boat engine if u didt know, which means it gets superb cooling all the time!

[@dhcars8911]

@Jesus45U 16.4

[@leomartel7487]

I automatically write off 100 hp when i see European engines

[@Bakkefication]

leo martel U mad brah

[@user-vi3tb3bw5t]

leo martel 750 hp, older truckies hate to admit it but they know it's true. For otr experience Volvos are the best. They shit on everyone when it comes to comfort level and they are extremely reliable. Peterbilts have small ass interiors, this 750 hp engine drives like its empty, doesn't matter how much weight you carry.

[@kennyaws0me]

I know.

[@fp08frwi]

@777Bauhaus Yeah but the truth is scania and volvo just have a competition about the Horsepowers. And i don't like that it have gone too far about horsepowers. It is enough. They don't have to make bigger engines they don't have to make more horsepowers. A 550/660 is enough same with scania a R500/R620 is enough.

[@wellingtonbraz160]

Where is Scania?

Now on the road, i just see volvo as powerful.
