Air suspension
Most of the models in the Volvo FH range are equopped with either rear or full Electronically Controlled Air Suspension (ECS), giving you high comfort and protecting your cargo. The system automatically adjusts itself so that the truck remains at a constant ride height and ensures a road and load-friendly ride.
For the highest gross weights The three-axle Tridem bogie with air suspension featuring a steered tag axle is intended for construction trucks. Tridem is characterised by high stability and good get-you-there ability even in difficult conditions. A steered tag axle combined with a short wheelbase means the truck is also very easy to manoeuvre, with a tight turning circle.
Manual height control makes it easier to adjust the load platform's height to match that of the cargo bay. Switching of demount bodies and/or semi-trailers is faster and you can easily adjust platfor height to match the height of a loading bay.
