VOLVO B8R

VOLVO B8R

Made to just keep running

We are proud to present the Volvo B8R, the successor to the legendary global best-selling Volvo B7R. We have kept all the proven features and further refined them by Volvo’s latest technology. The Volvo B8R is a true moneymaker in city, intercity and coach applications. It is built with your business in mind, with the focus on your long-term profitability and total cost of ownership. 

More power from your fuel

Volvo has a long-earned reputation for superior fuel efficiency. The Volvo D8 is our most fuel-efficient engine ever. It matches or exceeds its legendary predecessor, yet provides more power, torque and elasticity in driving. 

The safer choice

We know how quality, efficiency and optimised maintenance all add up to your productivity figure. The Volvo B8R is built in Volvo’s Swedish state-of-the-art bus chassis factory, the best start possible for a long and trouble-free service life. And the durability of the driveline also means that its efficiency and environmental performance will last. 

Towards 100% uptime

With the Volvo B8R, uptime comes as standard. The quality is built-in from the start, it’s easy to access all maintenance points and the service intervals have been extended. And with Volvo’s service network and programmes for maintenance and service you can avoid unplanned stops. Your workshop visits  will be fewer – and shorter. 

A worldwide service network

Volvo is a global leading manufacturer of heavy commercial vehicles, and for decades we have invested in our worldwide service network. With swift logistics we provide bus and truck customers with maintenance, services, advice and Genuine Volvo Parts. All told there are over 1500 Volvo service centres all over the world.

Manage your zones

Manage your zones

Volvo’s zone management is a development of geofencing. Instead of just following a vehicle and registering when it crosses a boundary, we can change parameters on-board the vehicle and control its behaviour inside a zone.
