Ossett-based A Davies Transport is reaping the rewards of 15 new Volvo FH Aeros, selected due to the marque’s brand reputation for reliability and product performance.
The new FH Aero 500 6x2 tractor units join a 35-strong commercial vehicle fleet, of which more than half are now supplied by the Swedish manufacturer.
The FH Aeros are each powered by a Euro 6-compliant D13TC Step E engine, producing 500hp and a peak torque of 2,800Nm. All are paired with a 12-speed automated I-Shift gearbox and I-See predictive cruise control to yield substantial sustainability and operational gains.
Inside the trucks’ Globetrotter XL cabs, the focus has been to ensure the firm’s team of drivers are as comfortable as possible. This includes leather interior, microwave oven, fridge and dual armrests.
The exterior sees each sport the business’ striking red and yellow livery – applied in an enhanced paint finish – complemented by colour-matched Alcoa Dura- Bright Alloys.
In addition to its new tractor units, A Davies Transport has also recently acquired an 18- tonne Volvo FE 4x2 rigid, which will operate locally across the Wakefield postcode.
