Volvo Trucks emerged as the market leader in Europe’s heavy truck segment (16 tonnes and above) in 2025, capturing a market share of 19.0%, up from 17.9% in 2024. The highest registrations of Volvo trucks during the year were recorded in key markets including the UK, France, Poland, Germany, and Lithuania.
A major contributor to this performance has been the Volvo FH Aero, which has gained strong traction among long-haul operators across Europe. Featuring enhanced aerodynamics and advanced technologies such as Volvo’s digital camera mirror system, the FH Aero delivers up to 7% better fuel efficiency compared with the standard Volvo FH it replaced. Nearly 33,000 FH Aero trucks were ordered across Europe in 2025, underlining its popularity with fleet operators.
Commenting on the achievement, Roger Alm, President of Volvo Trucks, said, “We are extremely proud to be the market leader in Europe for the second consecutive year. Our ambition is to be our customers’ best business partner, and this leadership position is clear proof of the trust our customers place in us. I would like to sincerely thank our customers and employees for making this possible.”
He added, “Our comprehensive product portfolio offers superior uptime, fuel efficiency, and safety. The FH Aero is a standout product for long-distance transport, and customer feedback consistently highlights its exceptional performance and fuel savings.”
Beyond Europe, Volvo Trucks held either the number one or number two position in 30 countries worldwide in 2025, reinforcing its strong global presence.
Driving the transition toward fossil-free transport, Volvo Trucks is pursuing a three-path technology strategy to achieve net-zero emissions by 2040. This approach includes battery-electric vehicles, fuel-cell electric solutions, and internal combustion engines powered by renewable fuels such as green hydrogen, biogas, biodiesel, and HVO (hydrotreated vegetable oil).
“We will continue to innovate and introduce new truck solutions that support both our customers’ operational efficiency and the decarbonisation of the transport sector. By investing in multiple technologies, we are able to offer tailored transport solutions for diverse customer needs and markets,” Alm added.
