I drove the most powerful Volvo in the world!
Welcome to one of our heaviest reviews to date!
Mat has got his hands on two Volvo HGVs, and he’s about to give them the proper carwow review treatment!
What we have here are two lorries provided to us by Volvo - one’s diesel powered, and one’s electric powered. Naturally being lorries, the layout of these two massive automotives is far different to a usual car, but that won’t stop Mat from talking you through their design, interior layout and practicality. Just wait until you see how much storage there is in the cabin!
What’s more, he’ll also take them both for a drive, and even launch them!
You might think it’s a bit pointless launching lorries, but trust us, these two massive machines pack a serious punch! The diesel HGV is powered by a huge 16.1-litre straight-six twin-turbo that can put down 760hp and 3,550Nm of torque! As for the EV, it comes with three electric motors which combine for 666hp and 2,400Nm!
Want to find out what Mat thinks of these HGVs? You’ll need to stick with him for this all-new review!

Vote who makes the best Trucks Volvo Or Mercedes
Absolutely 😄
Volvo?

From Reviewing Bugattis to reviewing Euro Trucks. Matt has come a long way 😅😂
hes done it before a few years ago
@@FlobySop64 wish he could done about reviewing the powerboat also.
He is even reviewing spitfire
Well he reports from the UK. There are only Euro trucks available
Bugattis
I’m a truck driver myself I can honestly say the FH16 is mind blowing. I took 1 down to Italy a few years ago fully loaded and I cannot explain what it’s like to have that kind of weight on and climb a mountain without slowing down! My regular truck is 500bhp and it struggles on big hills when it’s at max weight. When you start a hill climb in the FH16 and expect it to start slowing down but it just keeps on going that’s a surreal feeling that’s where you realise you’ve got serious power underneath you 😂😂
Tesla SemiTruck is better for ya: 0-60 mph in 5 seconds without a trailer. It can climb even steep hills easily.
@@Seventh7Artdidn’t ask
@@Seventh7Art no it cant lmfao it doesnt exist almost all stats have been proven to be impossible with anywhere near teslas current tech lmfao
@@Seventh7Art its not about 0-60 but economy. If it will prove better ease of use and profitability then diesel then yea. Yet we need to see it on the road.
@@Seventh7Art Nah.
Never leave your coffee in the cup holder when lifting the cab!
Sounds like your talking from experience 😂
never leave a fridge on the passenger seat.
What will happen then?
@@AminurRahman-xz6ln since the whole cab will tilt 90 degrees so will the cupholders, making everything in them fall out.
😁
Martin is a cool guy, very responsive and communicative. Can tell he is a car guy at heart.
Who's Martin?
@@Joey_Stanley-sg1wq The guy in the video
@@TheInternetDawg What video?

Reviewer's name is Matthew short form is Matt
Definitely more truck reviews, most of us don't see this side of the motor industry. Be cool to see busses too !
Stavros969 is the matt of the truck world on here
Buses are just trucks for passengers. Same engines
@@CarsandChris Buses only for adults.
@@damarfadlan9251 I'm not sure what you're trying to say
Worse thing about busses...there's 50+ PITAs sitting behind you!
200 miles on an electric truck is the best joke I've heard all year
Yeah and 2h charging 😂
Definitely not ready for prime time
More than likely be around 125/150 when Pulling 44t
and this is for sure "UP TO"... In real life with load, low temperatures and higher speed (motorway) it will be maybe 100miles....
At Volvo because they didn't take the effort to make a proper electric truck, Tesla semi magnitude higher range and power 😉
While hanging on to the 'pull up bars', you missed the two steps on the front grill that fold down and allow you to climb up and clean the windscreen. Volvo trucks are awesome... I drive an FH500 every day and love it to bits, it's my home from home.
8:17 This is called a "jake brake", and it works by reducing the exhaust flow. The net effect is that pistons have a harder time pushing the exhaust fumes out, thus are slowed down, and this is what provides engine braking. Its primary use is to save brake pads and discs, not fuel, although when you use a jake brake, the fuel injection will also be cut off. So yes, there will be _some_ fuel savings, but the brakes are actually the main benefactors here.
seeing as how there are 4 stages to use I guess that is a "Jake" and "Retarder/Aquatader" combo system
I'd say it's called like that if you are from across the pond. And it's pretty much like that in the rest of the world.
On volvo is it "engine rake"
Actually a Jake brake functions by first shutting off the injectors and then as the pistons come up on the compression stroke the "Jake housings" located on top of the valvetrain open the exhaust valves releasing the compressed air. This slows the truck and engine down by making it work against the compression without injecting any fuel to supply more energy to the engine.
It is called an Exhaust brake or an Engine brake. "Jake Brake" is a brand name. It is a superior product to all others and as such has almost a monopoly in the US market. However, it is still a brand name.
Should i: - avoid it - consider it - shortlist it - or go right ahead and buy it ???
bass!
you should definitely buy it
Go right ahead and buy it
I wanted to write the same comment :) Well done :)
If you do cannel crossing’s go for electric then you can get it done with one charge in the week 😊
Hey Matt. The air nozzle in the cab is for blowing crumbs and dust out of the cab. Cleaning in short.
The air nozzle in the cab appeared to be quite tight.
@@purwantiallan5089 Imagine it as an “Air Broom”. Not a vacuum cleaner.
@@purwantiallan5089 stupid af
Exactly.. blow jobs
And for cooling your balls down on a hot day 🙈😂😂😂
When your delivery get late. Driver: I was charging my truck 😂
17:45 I could almost feel this waves of torque through the screen. This slow shifts combined with so much torque must be unique experience.
It is. I'm drivning a FH16 my self.. It's a powerhouse.. and that Anti coalition feature is nice until it kicks in.. On FULL BRAKE
I love how matt reviews it like a normal roadcar 😂
Matt always being epicwow. Hope he also reviewed a Lizard Ignition.
@@purwantiallan5089 🤣🤣
In fact, the Scania S/R new gen comes with a 16L V8 diesel, 770HP and 3700nM torque! ;)
Yea exactly I was really dumbfounded when he said that this is the "most" powerful truck in the world Edit: as you all know carwow likes to fuck around and change titles hence why i'm being corrected
@@kysrussiansandindians0 in the video he says the most powerful volvo
@@radubest1097 I noticed that. What I meant was with the title stating "most powerful truck"
For comfort and gearbox though... Volvo all day long 👌 much better vision in the FH, iShift gearbox is so smooth (alot smoother in the FH5 over the FH4.) The seats are really comfy aswell 👌👌
@@kysrussiansandindians0 title says most powerful volvo
I had to laugh Matt. Who trys to go down steps forwards lol. You made my day.🤣🤣🤣
These truck reviews are super interesting! Used to drive an FH16 as a part time job during my studies in uni. More content like this please!
How old were you at uni then ?
6:13 I actually thought that was going to actually fall off just by the way it was going down so quickly 😅.
Same XD
Ditto😂😂
Yup
The weight shifted
well back in my day you had to hand crank them fuckers. you know like a floor jack that you pump with a long pipe? yeah trucks work the same so you just pump and pump and pump untill the cabin falls over on it's own. reall scary first time you are doing it because you think the whole cabin will fall off xD
Air line (if anyone has told you) is for cleaning the dust out of the vehicle,if your tramping (stay out over night)you want the cab clean,as it is your home for the time out on the road.
The truck is as heavy like Hunter Takedown 4x4.
Exactly, just as you said, Electric truck (or a van) will be better for "local" distribution. A diesel will be better for long haul. The same thing applies to cars - the ICE cars bans in Europe make no real sense. Lots of company cars are used for "long haul", and company cars are the majority of new car sales.
Combined with a better rail infrastructure and you could eliminate the need for longer ranges being required. If they are used in the channel tunnel they could maybe retrofit charging and fast charging of lorries each crossing could work, already 25kv available overhead at that point.
Should have put the FH in Power mode instead of Economy - square button behind the gearshifter! Makes a difference
I'm a truck driver seeing you going down the rails is the funniest thing I've ever seen.
This is very interesting tbh, I want more of truck reviews. Amazing trucks.
This truck looked so mint.
almost every truck is the same, boringly same engines, same cab size, same accessories ... Only very minor changes you can see, for example bigger lockers, or the shape of dashboard and thats it. Probably american trucks have more variety in cab styles and exterior.
nice video Mat, truck driving is my dream job man this video have been very helpful to me thank you again .down from South africa 🇿🇦
Nice review Matt 👌,,,, respect for truck drivers,,,, hat's off 💯
We want more videos with trucks like this insane Volvo review!
What about reviewing a Truck from Super Trucks Racing?
@@purwantiallan5089 what about a drag race between all the Volvo trucks? 🤨
Do we🤔
The cool thing about cabovers is you ALWAYS find whatever you dropped in the cab when you do your daily pre-drive checks! Most of the time it's right there on the windshield making it easy to grab and some of the time it's arranged in a pile in front of the truck on the ground amongst what used to be your windshield. I could SWEAR I strapped that microwave down....
Noone tilts the cab to do pre drive checks... In fact its against 99% of company policies to tilt the cab
@@karl8805 We don't see very many cabovers here in the US so popping the hood is pretty much mandatory for the daily checks. Spent 12 years in Army Aviation so we checked the helis before and after flights. Having been a daily rider since 2010 checking the bikes before tearing off is 2nd nature at this point and it spills over to anything mechanical with me.
@@lknanml ahhh ok i understand. Yeah in the uk we all use the on board computer for oil/coolant etc.. And yeah due to health and safety we are not allowed to lift the cab haha... Makes daily checks pretty easy though... Ymif inwas younger amd didnt have a child, id love to nove to the us and drive over there. Was always a dream, just too difficult
@@karl8805 Just plan a work vacation. We are going camping in the US kids. The truck will be our cabin. I want to go to New Zealand and drive. Grass is always greener I guess. LOL
@@lknanml 1st day on the job in NZ,the boss took me round to the yard, first thing it went through my head, was; "F*ck me,Jurassic Park " ...as I was shown to a 1995 Isuzu with a twin splitter gearbox!
ive only driven the previous FH16 750 and i only thought they did a face lift outside of it. but man the interior is completly new! love it!
As a HGV Driver myself who has followed your KZhead for a while just to see u drive cars I'd never thought I'd see you drive a HGV Matt 🤣 living the dream as we say lolll
The 16.1-litre straight-six twin-turbo engine in the Volvo FH60 have 760hp and 3550Nm of torque which is absolutely insane and mental!
Reckon we could engine swap a Skoda Fabia VRS from the 1.9 TDI to this?
@@rubberduck3788 yep. Wish the truck also got an engine unit from Lizard Ignition.
Imagine this specs on a bugatti
Like you
@@rubberduck3788 u would then have an engine with some car attached to it
6:12 🤣 bro I think mat wanted to run there cause that thing was coming down a little too fast🤣
1:13 - these are dirt deflectors to keep the dirt from the side windows. They have nothing to do with a fuel efficiency.
I’ve just passed my full HGV license so this was entertaining to watch 😅
The FH was in eco mode as indicated on the dash! My older 700.hp has a power mode and a HD mode for road train set up.
Any Volvo newer than 2005 with automatics have the Eco/Power button That's because when Volvo made the I-shift gearbox, they wanted it to be suitable for different types of loads and conditions It also has a service mode button on the back of the selector. That's for when your gearbox malfunctions and you need to drive it somewere safe
Drive it in manual mode to get all the power
I'm fairly sure the engine brake is for slowing down on a continuous downward slope to help maintain a lower speed and not cook the brakes, causing a horrific accident.
It can be, but the engine brake shuts off the engine and stops fuel going in therefore is more economical. Also it saves brake wear and tyre ware from harsh braking. Especially in the UK brakes over heating isn't really an issue for the most part and you have to remember going downhill using the engine brake you're only braking 2 wheels of the unit which can cause you to slide more easily and jackknife so it's best to use the engine brake with some brake so the trailer wheels are also slowing
@@AdmiralDantheman Fair enough, thanks for your input!
Gotta get Matt to review a American Truck like a Kenworth or something. Here in some states its legal for us to drive the same speed as cars, up to 80 mph, although most trucks are limited to 65-75 mph.
With 3 trailers...was fun times,trying to stop :)
Or they can just take an old Volvo from the 1970... same thing.
I hope Matt could do a Scania 770 vs Volvo 750. It would be interesting I think. Also I would like to see a drag race with more weight than 44 tons, but since it's the legal limit in most European countries.
max legal weight in most EU countries is 56 tons
0 to 55: yes it's possible ^^ impressive trucks, glad to see more of such reviews
For me this truck graded S.
That guy clinging onto his seatbelt like Mat is going to crash into something😂😂😂
Matt should come to Australia and drag race and brake test road trains hahaha
I’m truck driver myself god I miss my FH ok it’s gas unit and comfy as well, driving few old Scania P at the moment love the review Matt.
Matt getting out of the truck at the beginning was a masterpiece.
Nearly 3 points of contact at all times. ha ha
Mat still hasn't learned to get out of a truck in the correct way! So funny!
What?
I love the features of this truck, only thing the Freightliner I've driven have over this is more space.
17:20 I can count 6 parts we make at work, stuff I've packed into pallets straight from the press, and I can see 7 at 18:12. Kinda cool to see where they end up, otherwise I have no idea what the use for them are.
Volvo offer a 750bhp i6 16L which is what you were in but they also offer a 540bhp i6 13L (fh13) which is the highest output engine you can spec with a dual clutch gearbox, that 540 will actually beat the 750 to 50mph from a standstill. Also that might be the most powerful electric hgv in production however back in the diesel regime scania offer a 770bhp 16L v8. There’s actually the possibility to push the engines a lot further if it wasn’t for cooling. Just like CAT engines there’s respective higher output marine versions of some models, where obviously cooling isn’t an issue with the room a available on boats.
550 Cat motors...love them,shame the EPA ended them in the States
I drive a fh540 dual clutch and it does beat our fh750 to the limiter 👍🏼👍🏼
That review was refreshing. I really enjoyed it
I've always loved Trucks since I was a kid not gonna lie. I love Truck reviews 🤣
I really enjoyed this Matt. As I have with your other HGV reviews. I look forward to seeing more and I can tell that you enjoy getting behind the wheel of a truck.
I do love the Volvo I drive. Brillint trucks. The update that they have done on the infotainment system is very welcome. I'd love to see more of these reviews.
FH= forward control high cab FM= forward control medium cab N series= normal control ie steering wheel behind front axle. F series=forward control ie steering wheel forward of front axle. Just for info🤘🏼
You guys seriously have to make another channel called 'Truckwow' and add your truck drag races on that channel as well. I would be keen, who else?
They'll make more money putting on this channel
@@NewHandle_ maybe 2023 i think.
Absolutely do more of these. Loved the truck, loved Martin, this is fascinating.
Trucks may not be as exciting as cars for obvious reasons but they command (and deservedly so) massive respect for the (automotive/mechanical) engineering challenge and marvel (if I may say so) that they are. Not to mention the value they add and how indispensable they are to society. Very cool and thankful to have Martin from Volvo. He did speak. He wasn't 'silent' by any stretch of the imagination but I still would have liked to hear more from him. Anyway, Great video.
Should review Volvo FH16 Globetrotter xxl with the 8x4 axle configuration
12:57 as a truck driver, I can confirm that this is made exactly for what you said.
Very nice test. When I've had check my volvo 460 with 28200kg Dmc it was 44000kg. Volvo 460 done 0-50miles per hour in 53s. When apparently volvo 460 I save did 51s. What I noticed that 750 its changing gears very early. The 50 get in 12 gear when easly could do in 11 gear. I belive that this time could me much better in manual mode.
This truck looked quite overpowered.
He was using eco mode 🤣🤣
As a HGV Driver I very much enjoy the tractor unit reviews plus FH for the Win 🏆
I have never seen in my life that anyone get out of the truck like that. Even my grandmother got out of the truck more normally than this 😢
You are right 😂😂
Why was your grandmother in a truck?....don't answer plz
Mat thank you so much for this insane video!
Need also a review about Age Solo Licorne.
Every f#cking video
How about drag races amongst latest trucks like the scania V8 770hp 730hp against Volvo 750hp 700 hp iveco Benz and so on,we would love see videos like that and this is a wonderful video I have enjoyed it big ups matt👍
My 21-year old daughter drives HGV Class 1 trucks. Hauls massive refrigeration units with latest-gen Volvos and Renaults up and down the A9 in Scotland. I’ve been a passenger a few times, and it blows my mind! My wee girl in those monsters 😳😳
I'm as old as your daughter is, wish lorry driving was as financially rewarding in India as it is in the First World, I'd have become one already 🙏🏼😢. Please let your daughter know I wish her all the very best, and that she's living my dream, and that I wish all the safety and happiness for her, you, her lorry, her cargo, and other road-users 🌸💯💯.
4:48 - Holy Shit, the Warranty will expire before the Bonnet gets fully opened for the first time ever in the truck's lifespan.
Those front aerofoils are to direct air flow across the side of the cab to keep the spray from the sides of the tyres from crapping up the side windows & mirrors !
Finally I found the right comment, I would've said it myself if I couldn't find it in the comments. Cheers !!
Really happy with this video! I love Volvo trucks! 😊
Are you guys doing any Scania soon? 770S cab! Cant wait if u do!
My 8 year old budget DAF has lane assist and radar cruise control 😂 but that BIG FH16 does look impressive! although I drive a truck I'm not really all that interested in most of them, but when Volvo bring out something like that I must say that I get jealous!
After all this time watching Matt, I had no idea I needed to know these trucks exist...👀
It should have a peltiercooler pad/bay for your phone, so it doesnt get overheated
The lower front grills with the chrome around them are steps you pull the grills down and step up and use the handle if you need to access the windscreen area outside on foot
You’ve just reminded me how much I miss the FH500 I drove from my last job ❤. The current MAN TGS just doesn’t cut it 😕
Someone should've told Matt that the bottom grill can be turned into a step😂
Missed opportunity on "and you're watching truckwow". Come on production team :D
My man spilled from the truck like a jelly at the begining.
Highly appreciate the quality content you are creating throughout this episode. But, what I have quite noticed and at the same time feel sorry for that whenever Mr. Matthew reviews such type of a vehicle he never gets informed about the practice of how to appropriately climb outside of it which is quite an essential piece of knowledge to be acquired.
yeah we need more truck reviews
Review also about Gnade Esperanza Carwow.
You can see on the dash the truck is in Eco mode at 17:50... On the gear selector there might be a button behind the selector that you press and it'll put it in power mode for a minute
That button is on top of the selector The one behind is the service mode, to drive the truck somewere safe if your gearbox breaks down
They’re is a button behind the gear selector to put it from eco into normal mode then into power mode 👍🏼👍🏼
If you opened the waterfall grill, i am pretty sure they double as a step/ladder, so you can reach the chrome on the sunvisor. 😄 (The grips you used for pull-ups, are part of the ladder.)
After watching you struggle with the steps on the Electric, i am not so sure you will find the steps in the grill. 😂
Almost didn't watch this. Would've been sorry! It was really good. Thanks, Mat. In a few short years, the battery tech will make this work better than the best today. Higher energy density and capacity, much quicker charging, not volatile, lighter, cheaper, 100% recyclable. Applications like these should've been focused on first! It makes perfect sense, specially because of the flat torque delivery. Some day, no more trucking chains in the far-right-hand lane in the mountains!
So could someone work out how many weeks it would take the electric truck to cover the 1100 mile range of the diesel?
1100 / 200 = 5.5 5.5 x 2 = 11 Driving that distance you would have to spend a total of 11 hours at the charger + whatever time it would take to do the actual driving. I cant see how a reputable truck manufacturer would ever make a semi-truck with those specs, it makes no sense whatsoever. It could work for a distrubution truck or postal service, but not as a semi as those are pretty much only ever used for long-range delivery.
If you only do channel crossing’s the 1100 miles would take the same amount of weeks… (Dover-Calais)
Answer is Tesla Semi will do it in one day. Volvo have a long way to go to catch Tesla.
@@josviersel I'll believe the Tesla/Musk hype machine when i see a couple of real world reviews, also, took them some time to deliver 2 trucks to Pepsi. Tesla still haven't got "Full self driving" that's been touted and is now getting sued over it.
@@josviersel the Tesla semi ain't doing shit. it's a massive failure always has ben always will be. Tesla ain't as great as people think. cheap parts shitty service, no experience in the car industry or truck industry, 50% of their products are straight lies. shit musk said he could do years ago but yet to this day has not delivered on.
Congratulations on becoming TruckWow
Agree.
"zero tailpipe emission" finally an honest manufacturer
Thanks for your sharing
When the speedometer becomes the 0-60 timer
No truck faster than mine on foot down Friday 👀
This why I love Volvo Trucks and Also Buses because everything is luxurious as well as perfect.
That air duster is for cleaning your shoes when you get into the truck.. in NA we have it right next to the driver seat so you can clean shoes and dirt doesnt get in your truck ✌
Where are you from?
I was soooo looking forward to brake test with trailers attached!
Yep. The trailer is as heavy as it gets.
And that’s how you jackknife a trailer and die🤷🏻♂️😂
12:55 seriously?😂😂 That is one mind blowing truck though
@ 1:02 the two large chrome lower "grills" fold down to allow you to climb up the front of the truck. All Volvo trucks have this feature.
The battery issue is where the Siemens E-Highway system comes in, because it basically adapts train pantograph technology for roadway usage.
Makes me want to be a truck driver just to get a go in one of those beauties. #truckerguy
This truck deserved an S rating. Its an epic truck to drive.
They are nice to drive but the trucking industry is not a place you'd want to be unless it's your absolute passion
@@stop_lying_bro Yup, it's a crap life, and I've driven all over the globe...good for a short stint, like going to southern Europe in winter,but quit again in the spring!
@@williamrae9954 exactly! I've driven in the US and Canada and now Switzerland. Different trucks but still the same BS
Makes we wanna become a trucker. It's too good!
I have been driving a FH 500 for the last 300k - its taken this review to show me how to raise the cab. never been shown - probably a sign I have been working for the wrong mob.
6:13 I got scared to Mat 😂 i thought it was gonna break
Imagine the size of the pistons, cylinders, engine block and all the engine parts of the 16.1-litre straight-six twin-turbo engine of that Volvo FH16!
Insane🤔
Electric is definitely good for inter county deliveries for many logistic companies but the Non-electric is seriously good for continental deliveries. nice to see Volvo is taking the electric challenge. Tesla should not be the only one in electric truck industry.
DAF also have the electric CF range currently on the road which are similar in stats to the volvo here, and like volvo are releasing their big boys next year with the electric XF range on to the road. Lots of european truck manufactuers currently working on getting electric or biofuel trucks out on roads which is amazing. In america Freightliner are working on getting an electric cascadia on the road. Thankfully tesla isn't the only one doing it because they've never exactly been proven to be honest about their numbers and the semi is hideous, I know I wouldn't want to have to stare at that thing while stuck in traffic. Tesla are all about hype though and they've really hit on that marketing a big semi truck to lots of people that haven't driven a HGV in their life, have no plans to, aren't in the trucking industry and because they've only heard about tesla semis they're up on their high horses screeching about how tesla is changing the world. Meanwhile people that know about trucking know what's available, what's coming up and also knows that tesla will certainly sell some but they're not going to be taking over the trucking industry. As you said, electric isn't anywhere near ready to take on the long-haul market but in a lot of europe there's so many companies making round trips that are less than 100 miles and electric does go a long way to fill that role.
It'll be interesting to see how much the range of the electric trucks improve when we start seeing the effects of the overhead charging cables that are being trialed. They have a long way to go before they could ever compete with continental deliveries, but if an electric truck could do a hundred miles in and around the streets of London, not facing any emissions charges, then hop on the motorway and charge while driving until it gets to the next city.. It could be a viable option for logistic companies based in one country.
to be fair, tesla isnt in the truck industry yet since they haven't delivered anything
@@littlehippo5004 they have tho?
@@xectia sorry, they delivered two. That's nothing. Volvo is likely to deliver at the minimum hundreds if not thousands next year. Not to mention mercedes.
I can't remember the last time I only drove 200 miles. I'm a daycabber in the US Midwest and it's not unusual to do 400 miles per day just in one state. I'd need two of these trucks for that, assuming it would actually go the full 200 miles (it won't).
Well, its not built for the American market. And its specced for the European market. And the range is certified, and it will make that with a 4 tonne load.
@@zaarkeru3391 4 tons? Lmao.
@@americansmark 40* tonnes xD
it's not for longer distances it's for shorter daily drives and city transports. + europ has strickt laws on how long you can drive and when you need to take a brake. you have 4,5hours of drive time before you need to take a 45min brake (or you can split it and take a 15min brake during those 4,5hours and then only need 30min when you hit 4,5h) then you get another 4,5hours. you can get 1hour extra drive time if needed i belive 2x per week or something like that. but then you still need that 45min brake after 4,5h before you can do the last 1hour. like 9/10 times i have seen sleeper cabs they are just sleeper because why not. they rarely actually get used as such unless we talking the bigger FH which is used for longer distance transports. here in sweden it's up to 74tons and 25meters long. we also got trucks with special permits that do 100ton hauls of logs. road train in other words
its supposed to be a short distance delivery vehicle. in europe we daily drive trucks arround 800km a day or 500 miles. and they usually carry bigger fuel tanks. like a weeks worth of fuel. arround 1250liters normaly wich would usually get you over 2000miles or 3200km on a full load
Really loved this!
I swear at 1.56 Matt turns into Alan Partridge 😂😂
The more I watch the more I see Alan 😂
