The FH16 is Volvo’s flagship model and if you are aiming for the stars, you will need power to get there. The engine in the new Volvo FH16 is tailor made for the job.

The Australian built FH16 is available with 600 and 700 horsepower, which makes it the powerful truck available in Australia.

Ideally suited to B-Double, Road Trains, Float and Heavy Haulage applications, the FH16 is the truck of choice for operators who need a high horsepower cab over.
