Volvo Trucks Showcases Industry Leading Innovations at Bharat Mobility

Volvo Trucks India showcased its FM 420 4X2 LNG tractor and the FM 4X2 tractor with Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) at Bharat Mobility 2025. These innovations represent the next step in Volvo Trucks India’s long-standing commitment to providing transformative solutions to leading logistics providers.

The FM 4X2 LNG tractor, equipped with High Pressure Direct Injection (HPDI) technology, represents a breakthrough in reducing logistics costs and environmental impact. Its spark-free operation makes it an ideal solution for safely transporting hazardous goods. HPDI offers superior fuel economy compared to spark-ignited LNG engines and greater efficiency than diesel engines, delivering exceptional operational benefits. Furthermore, it achieves a 20% reduction in CO? emissions—and up to 100% when powered by Bio LNG, contributing to a more sustainable future. Paired with a 38 CuM tip-trailer featuring automatic tarpaulin systems, this solution addresses critical industry challenges for construction and mining customers, reducing waiting times, minimizing pollution, and managing high-frequency operations.

The FM 4X2 tractor with ADAS exemplifies Volvo’s dedication to safety. It is equipped with a Camera Monitoring System (CMS), that replaces traditional mirrors to enhance driver visibility and aerodynamics, and other advanced systems like Forward Collision Warning, Emergency Braking, Adaptive Cruise Control, and Lane Departure Warning. Together, these technologies improve road safety for drivers and other road users while optimizing operational efficiency.

Volvo Trucks also introduced its state-of-the-art Fuel Efficiency Services, a comprehensive solution that integrates advanced telematics via the Volvo Connect platform with Virtual Reality (VR) driver training modules. These tools analyze over 400 driver parameters, identify skill gaps in real time, and deliver personalized training to maximize fleet performance while ensuring driver well-being.

Vinod Aggarwal, MD & CEO, VE Commercial Vehicles, said, “Volvo Trucks focus on quality, safety and environment care has made it synonymous with reliability and performance in India. With advanced LNG solutions and emphasis on sustainable practices, Volvo Trucks customers can transition to cleaner, more efficient operations while maintaining superior productivity. These initiatives reflect Volvo Trucks commitment to driving sustainable growth, delivering long-term value to our customers, and setting new benchmarks for efficiency and safety in India’s commercial vehicle industry.”

Dinakar B, EVP- Sales & Marketing, Volvo Trucks India, added, “At Volvo Trucks, we understand the unique challenges faced by the logistics sector, including extended waiting times and underutilised assets, which hinder operational efficiency. Through close collaboration with our logistics partners, we are driving a transformative shift towards smarter and more sustainable operations. Our advanced solutions, such as ADAS, innovative training modules, and cutting-edge LNG technology, prioritize driver safety, enhance efficiency, and deliver significant operational savings. The superior performance of Volvo trucks ensures longer hauls, faster turnaround times, and improved fuel economy, empowering our customers to cover greater distances, complete more trips with fewer vehicles, and reduce fleet size, emissions, and costs. Offering a sustainable alternative to diesel, our LNG trucks deliver exceptional performance, with an impressive running capability of up to 3,00,000 km annually”

Volvo Trucks’ market-driven approach focuses on key sectors including express logistics, mineral transportation, and B2B operations. By leveraging high-performance vehicles, operational data management, and improved operational efficiency models, the company is setting new standards in efficiency and sustainability.
