Volvo: E-Truck rocked the festival 🎥
HEAVY METAL As sponsor of this year's Wacken Open Air Festival, Volvo Trucks has launched the special Swedish Metal edition of the FH. The all-black tractor unit is limited to 66 vehicles.
The drive of the Swedish Volvo FH truck is still freely selectable. But the electric version shown as a special edition at the Wacken Open Air Festival additionally bears the number 666 on the driver's cab as an indication of the engine power - still in horsepower currency.
Black and golden leaves
All Volvo FH Swedish Metal are painted black and decorated with gold flashes and emblems. On the side panels there is a silhouette of a Volvo FH with bull horns. Other features include a deep sun visor, low front spoiler with two yellow lights incorporated underneath, as well as an illuminated roof sign and round LED headlights.
Silent power electric trucks
Together with the well-known drummer of former Motörhead and now German band Scorpions, Mikkey Dee, Volvo Trucks already launched a campaign of contrasts last year. Under the motto "Silent Power," the campaign juxtaposes electrifying loud music with extremely quiet electric trucks. The native Swede from Volvo's hometown of Gothenburg holds a truck driver's license and has seen for himself the "Silent Power" of the e-trucks in several videos.
