Volvo Trucks now official supplier to McLaren F1 team

19 February 2016/Categories: Industry News


McLaren-Honda has announced that Volvo Trucks is the official supplier of trucks and haulage solutions to its Formula 1 team.

The motorsports company will be taking delivery of 24 Volvo FH Series trucks for the four-year partnership, according to McLaren.com.

Volvo Trucks will be providing transport solutions and logistics support to McLaren's race team and hospitality operations, which are both essential to the maintenance of the company.

There are three different specifications for the Volvo FH 13-litre, 533bhp trucks, which will comprise standard-height, extra-low and top-of-the-range models.

With the range of trucks, McLaren says it will be able to better cope with the "ever-changing logistical requirements of the team at grand prix locations all over Europe".

The solutions provided by Volvo Trucks result in fuel-efficient, torque-strong performance, responsive engines and comfortable cabs for McLaren's logistics team.

Safety is a key point for both companies too and the FH series is the world's safest Volvo product, with unique safety systems, including driver support systems, aerodynamic mirrors and dynamic headlights.
