Volvo Trucks North America will showcase their latest technologies and solutions at the Advanced Clean Transportation (ACT) Expo at the Anaheim Convention Center from April 28 to May 1, 2025. The booth (#4537) will spotlight innovative solutions including the all-new Volvo VNL, which has set the industry standard in fuel efficiency, safety, and total cost of ownership, and can today be run on renewable diesel. Additionally, Volvo Trucks will highlight their leading position in electromobility with the Volvo VNR Electric. Attendees are invited to engage with Volvo experts to learn about the commercially available solutions designed to continue the journey towards zero emissions and zero accidents.
Volvo Trucks will showcase the all-new Volvo VNL 860 flagship sleeper and a Volvo VNR Electric truck currently in operation with Penske Truck Leasing, as well as the Volvo VNL Autonomous, a fully redundant self-driving truck which is already pulling commercial loads in Texas. The ‘World of Volvo’ themed booth will also feature innovative technology and equipment from Volvo Penta, Volvo Construction Equipment, and Volvo Autonomous Solutions, reinforcing Volvo’s comprehensive ‘Together Towards Zero’ strategy to advance decarbonization across both on- and off-road applications.
Total transportation solutions
“We are proud to showcase our total transportation solutions as we advance our vision of a world with zero emissions and zero accidents. 'Together Towards Zero' reflects the Volvo vision toward a safer and more sustainable future as we continue to move towards our ambition of 100% zero emissions transport by 2040,” said Peter Voorhoeve, President, Volvo Trucks North America. “This collective commitment across the Volvo Group is essential to accelerating the transition to safer and cleaner transportation solutions across every sector.”
Designed for the future, the all-new Volvo VNL will be the platform to support all propulsion technologies, from battery-electric and fuel cells to internal combustion engines running on renewable fuels like hydrogen. The all-new Volvo VNL also introduced active safety features and North America’s first 24-volt electrical architecture—key innovations that are redefining the standard for trucking and enabling the commercialization of fully autonomous trucks. The most connected truck ever built by Volvo Trucks, the all-new Volvo VNL offers advanced connectivity solutions that reduce total cost of ownership while enhancing customer satisfaction and driver productivity.
The Volvo booth will showcase the Volvo VNL Autonomous—a fully redundant autonomous truck engineered for industrialization and seamless integration with various self-driving technologies.
