Volvo Trucks and global logistics company DSV have signed a cooperation agreement for 300 electric heavy trucks. The deal is one of the largest commercial orders to date for Volvo electric trucks. With the order, DSV will have one of the largest company fleets of heavy electric trucks in Europe.

The agreement also includes 500 Volvo trucks with highly fuel-efficient diesel and gas drivelines. All trucks are planned to be delivered between 2024 and 2026.

The new trucks being supplied to DSV will include the new Volvo FH Aero Electric, which has improved aerodynamics, making it even more energy efficient.

DSV is the largest transporter of goods for the Volvo Group, and the company already has electric trucks from Volvo in its fleet. These trucks are used in Sweden and Denmark and DSV has established charging infrastructure, using electricity from solar panels, at its distribution centers in both countries.

Since 2019, Volvo Trucks has delivered more than 3,800 electric trucks to customers in 46 countries around the world. Volvo currently offers the industry’s broadest product line-up with eight fully electric models, meeting the needs in a wide range of applications from urban distribution and waste management to regional haul and construction.

Up to now, Volvo’s electric trucks have driven more than 90 million kilometers or 2,200 laps around the world in operation.
