    It's ugly as hell but will be an unbelievable truck to drive, independent suspension,up to 750 hp standard, double clutch ishift ( millisecond gear changes ) engine off aircon as standard! It'll be a nice truck if u can put up with the looks!

    really volvo use technologies they've had from late 90-s. Independent frunt susoention and ECAS is used on many big buses, like Volvo B-seris buses. Handling is really good, price too!

    EEV and Euro-6 is the same thing as you can see in USA on EPA-2010 D13 but improved. EGR+DOC+DPF+SCR = many problems especially if you cant find ultra low sulfur fuel.

    Really the cab is the same. It is not Version-3 they wanna introduce later. It is compromice cabin for new truck. Interior is much better, really, but.. it is not new cab we all wait for. Seems to me facelifted VN gonna be on market soon

    I can see less gauges on dashboard. really gauge with needle is really thing we do not need now. It is much cheaper to make LCD ore TFT display w/o any moving part.
