Well is it...or isn't it? Once again Biglorryblog is grateful to his favourite "Cloggie", Iep van der Meer for this very interesting artist's impression of what may (or may not) be the new Volvo FH due out later this year. Iep e-mails me: "Hello Brian! The Volvo is from a Dutch Volvo dealer website. Interesting stuff eh?"
Interesting indeed because the revised 'split' headlight cluster pictured in the artist's impression above certainly seems to closely match the recent 'teaser' shot of the eagerly-awaited new model sent out to her Majesty's Truck Press late last year...And in case you'd forgotten what the current model looks like here's a picture to show you....
Of course if the picture at the top DOES show the new Volvo I can't see it remaining on view for much longer if you get what I mean...meanwhile, click through here for what Biglorryblogblog thinks the new FH will look like, and a link to Iep's terrific website.
This drawing appeared as part of a Volvo safety/technology seminar a couple of years back and at the time BLB thought: 'I wonder if this might possibly be....." Stranger things have happened.
Meanwhile, click here for Iep's own website which has some great truck shots on it.
If this is the facelifted FH then i think it is a very good looking truck.As i've said before Brian the sketch at the bottom could well turn out to be the all new Volvo cab due when volvo hits euro 6.
yawn.
This is boring. What is the point of a facelift at this stage in the game? This cab is looking seriously dated. Volvo dont need to wait until Euro 6. They need to get moving. MAN is doing very well in europe (both east and west) becuase it is a sophisticated truck, both in looks and performance/features. If i was volvo MAN would be my biggest worry.
i love trucks veru much and the volvo trucks is the best for me i hope i will a friend with you
