VOLVO F-12 GlobeTrotter
When designing their trucks, Volvo takes many factors into consideration. Safely is one of these factors and is extremely important to Volvo. Volvo’s truck cabs must not only be able .to withstand over seven tons placed on its top, but afterwards, the cab doors must still open. The bumper of the F-I2 has been designed so that it is low enough to prevent a car from becoming wedged underneath in the event of a collision. Driver comfort is also an important consideration of Volvo’s designers.
The cab noise level is equal to that of a car. Both the steering wheel and the driver’s seat are adjustable, ensuring maximum driver comfort. All trucks Volvo manufactures come complete with a driver training kit which includes an audio tape.
The “Globetrotter” is equipped with a turbo super-charged diesel 385 BHP engine, a sixteen speed transmission, and a rear tandem final drive bogie, its halogen headlights are equipped with wipers to help keep them clean. The extended cab provides extra storage space for the driver. All in all, the F-12 Globetrotter is a remarkable machine!
