The models are designed for regional and long-haul transport, urban distribution, construction tasks, and municipal services. The jury highlighted in particular the longer range as well as the cab and chassis options, which allow the vehicles to be adapted to a variety of operational needs.

According to Volvo, its 7,000 electric trucks have driven a total of 500 million kilometers since 2019. Nearly 2,000 customers in more than 50 countries use these electric trucks.
