In what Volvo Trucks has described as one of its biggest deals ever, 1,500 Volvo FH Aero trucks have been ordered by Italian transport and logistics company Lannutti Group.
The majority of the trucks ordered by Lannutti will be powered by HVO (Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil).
Commenting on the deal, Valter Lannutti, CEO at Lannutti Group, said:
“The fleet renewal principle for us at Lannutti Group is to prioritise low emission vehicles while offering a high level of comfort and safety to our drivers, protecting them and all the other road users. In addition to the fuel saving I-Save technology already 100% adopted in the fleet we are now aiming to grasp the benefits coming from the Camera Monitor System and improved aerodynamic design. This partnership with Volvo will allow us to continue our journey towards zero emissions.”
Roger Alm, President Volvo Trucks, added:
“This deal makes me so proud as it shows the trust and commitment that Lannutti has with Volvo Trucks as a long-lasting business partner”, says Roger Alm, President Volvo Trucks. This really is proof that we have done the right thing with the new Volvo FH Aero. It not only supports our customers in reducing fuel costs and CO2 emissions, but it is also one of the safest truck models for their drivers to operate”.
