We get behind the wheel of the brand new "Version 5" Volvo FH 540 with dual-clutch gearbox to see what's new. Originally the worldwide launch of the range was due to take place in March. This was the first opportunity since the Covid-19 outbreak to drive the trucks in the UK, and Volvo Trucks UK set up some 90 minute test routes.
You can also listen to our podcast with Volvo's Martin Tomlinson about the new truck range here: audioboom.com/...
Check us out and find the magazine at www.truckanddriver.co.uk

A fantastic pair of vids Dougie, cheers! Since I was a wee lad I’ve always gone a bit quivery over any new Volvo truck, and these certainly look no exception! When I first saw the pics I wasn’t sure about the new headlight unit and surrounding panel, but that’s already beginning to grow on me. Nice to see the side markers working as repeaters too, seen these on trailers and body builds for a few years now, nice to see them on a factory tractor, every little helps when you’re trying to change lane! Easy to tell how quiet the 540 was on the vid too, as I could hear the ishift working on the ‘16, but I was itching to hear the dual clutch on the 540 and just couldn’t really hear any engine note changes or anything! She looks good on the powder tanker too, I’m a sucker for a nice cement tanker or bulker 👌🏻 Glad you’ve got out in something at long last, and glad it was something a bit special! Love your presenting style as always, keep up the good work 👍🏻 Long-term (35yr) T&D reader and general anorak, Simon Cantwell.

The one thing I don’t like is the front headlights but at the end of the day it’s designed for pulling not showing

I see that it's the facelift version (instrument cluster and the turn indicator on the door)

Overrated motor, fleet spec probably doesn’t even come with adaptive cruise as standard as they’ve done over the years so it’s beaten by DAF, even driver comfort is no good for taller people. Get a Scania review done, proper truck!

So right ,not any better than the older version ,I would like to see the big guy try to get a night's sleep in it ,the myth that Volvo gives u more, more seat,Not on the one I have,more space not on the one I have, more plugs to boil your kettle ,not on the one I have,they burn out within weeks, CD player not on the one I have, cab insulation not on the one I have it's extra, bed control panel unworkable, draughts at both ends of the bed I have that, no power in the cab to support a inverter for microwave I have that, no nothing that's what I have thanks Volvo,oh and no more Volvos ,8 new trucks no more Volvo ,one thing u do know is how to piss off drivers,and the MD at Volvo United Kingdom doesn't talk to drivers 🤬
