Volvo Trucks Customer Experience Center Offers Fleets Full Electromobility Experience

Volvo Trucks North America recently celebrated the opening of its new electromobility showcase at its Customer Experience Center in Dublin, Virginia. The custom-designed facility offers its customers the unique opportunity to test drive the Volvo VNR Electric model around a 1.1-mile closed track, where drivers can experience real-world road conditions. Additionally, the 36,000 square-foot state-of-the-art facility features new Volvo VNR Electric component displays, training, and fully operational charging infrastructure.

“Volvo Trucks is ready to support wide-scale battery-electric truck deployment in North America,” said Peter Voorhoeve, president, Volvo Trucks North America. “We have fully integrated our electromobility offerings into the Volvo Trucks Customer Center to serve as a resource for the North American transport industry to secure the in-depth information and hands-on experience needed to move forward with fleet electrification.”

“We are excited to welcome fleets to our Customer Center for the full Volvo VNR Electric experience, where each visit is tailored based on our customers’ specific needs and operations” said Rob Simpson, director of the Volvo Trucks Customer Center. “When customers start the transition to battery-electric vehicles, it is crucial to take all aspects of the electromobility ecosystem into account—from vehicle procurement to verifying a match between routes and range, establishing charging infrastructure, securing funding, and more. The Customer Center provides fleets with an opportunity to have these in-depth discussions, as well as test drive the Volvo VNR Electric, interact with the drivetrain display, and plug the truck in at our newly installed charging station."

Earlier this year, Volvo Trucks announced multiple funding programs customers can leverage to help make the transition to zero-emission vehicles more cost-effective for their fleet operations.
