“Volvo has built vocational trucks for some of the most demanding jobsites in the world for decades, and the all-new Volvo VNX sharpens our focus on this segment for the US and Canada. This truck is nothing like you've ever seen before from Volvo Trucks, with a rugged, all-business design built for the toughest jobs out there,” said Peter Voorhoeve, president, Volvo Trucks North America.

Ramping up vocational
Volvo isn't new to vocational work. Volvo Trucks leads the vocational and construction segments in many markets globally, including in Northern Europe and Latin America and its FMX and VMX trucks are already trusted on tough jobsites across Europe, Asia, Africa and Latin America. That global expertise is now landing in North America, in a truck designed and built from the ground up for this market.

Volvo also brings something no other manufacturer can: Volvo Construction Equipment has built and sold construction machines in the US for more than 50 years, providing significant experience within the Volvo Group building equipment for the toughest jobsites.

“We know our customers expect their trucks to perform day in and day out in challenging conditions. As the only OEM in North America that builds both construction equipment and construction trucks, we bring a unique understanding of how work gets done on the jobsite. Vocational work happens in some of the toughest, most unpredictable environments a driver will ever face, which is exactly why safety is always built into everything we do,” said Voorhoeve.

Safety built for the hardest job in trucking
Vocational driving is one of the toughest jobs in trucking. Drivers work with people on foot around the truck, excavators and loaders moving nearby, tight urban sites, uneven terrain, and limited sightlines. Volvo will detail the all-new Volvo VNX advanced safety systems, including its active safety technology and passive safety design, at the reveal.

Built for a segment with more work ahead
The timing couldn't be better, with infrastructure spending and a new generation of industrial and energy megaprojects driving a surge in Class 8 vocational demand. Power generation construction spending is expected to grow nearly 10 percent annually through 2030, according to FMI, a leading construction industry research firm. And federal funding continues to flow into the country's roads and bridges, with states already committing more than $270 billion in highway and bridge investment, according to the American Road & Transportation Builders Association.
