Volvo Trucks advances vocational focus at CONEXPO-CON/AGG 2026
Volvo Trucks North America will highlight its expanding focus on vocational and heavy-haul applications at CONEXPO-CON/AGG 2026, March 3–7 at the Las Vegas Convention Center. As part of the Volvo Group’s integrated presence, Volvo Trucks will be featured within the Volvo Construction Equipment booth (Festival Grounds — F24029), where the Volvo VHD 300 dump truck will showcase how on‑highway trucks and off‑highway machines work together across modern construction and infrastructure applications.
This direction supports Volvo Trucks North America’s long‑term commitment to expanding its presence in construction, aggregates, concrete, logging, agriculture, and heavy-haul highway ensuring customers have the safety, productivity, uptime, and operating efficiency they need to keep critical work moving.
“Vocational customers operate in demanding environments that require durability, reliability, and confidence in the partners they choose,” said Peter Voorhoeve, president, Volvo Trucks North America. “By aligning Volvo Trucks with Volvo Construction Equipment and Volvo Penta at CONEXPO, we are demonstrating how an integrated approach across products, services, and manufacturing supports customers today while helping build the future.”
An integrated Volvo Group presence
Under the theme Power Your Ambition, Volvo Trucks, Volvo Construction Equipment, Volvo Penta, and Volvo Financial Services will demonstrate how having trucks, machines, power solutions, digital services, and financing under one brand simplifies operations for vocational and heavy‑haul customers.
This one‑in‑the‑same brand approach creates clear benefits for construction and vocational fleets from better coordination between on‑ and off‑road equipment, to shared technologies, to connected services that support uptime and productivity across the entire jobsite. Volvo Financial Services will highlight expanded financing and insurance solutions, including its Rolling Asset Program, designed to simplify coverage and help maximize uptime across mixed fleets operating trucks, construction equipment, or both.
Volvo Trucks will also participate in the Volvo Group press conference, where leaders will discuss how the company is supporting customers as they build infrastructure, transport goods and people, and sustain growing communities amid ongoing economic and regulatory change. Presenters will reinforce Volvo’s long-term ambitions of 100% safe, 100% fossil-free, and 100% more productive through investments in electrification, renewable fuels, next-generation technologies, and flexible financing solutions.
Investing in North America for Long-Term Growth
Volvo Group will highlight its continued investments in production facilities worldwide, creating jobs, strengthening manufacturing capabilities, and advancing progress toward net-zero goals. With a strong focus on North America, these investments support regional growth while reinforcing resilience across the value chain. With significant investments in U.S. manufacturing and dealer capabilities, Volvo Trucks continues to strengthen its position in key North American vocational markets.
