VISIBILITY IMPROVED FOR VOLVO TRUCKS This summer Volvo Trucks will be introducing new rear-view mirrors on all Volvo FM, FH and FH16 models. Thanks to the new mirrors, visibility is improved both to the rear and offset front. “With the new rear-view mirrors, we are improving the driver’s scope for operating his truck in a safe way,” says Ulf Andreasson, manager product strategy at Volvo Trucks. “We’ve repositioned the mirrors a bit further back and further out from the cab sides. The angle has been modified and the size of the mirror housing is smaller than before.” Fewer blind spots Less dirt Volvo’s engineers have also taken the opportunity to improve the aerodynamic properties of the rear-view mirrors, so as to cut air resistance and reduce dirt accumulation. Production start for trucks with the new type of rear-view mirror is scheduled for the second week of June.
