Eskilstuna, Sweden - Volvo Construction Equipment (Volvo CE)., a construction machinery manufacturer., has unveiled the next-generation A60 articulated dump truck, its largest model, delivering a 15% boost in fuel efficiency and 5% higher productivity than the A60H it replaces. The 60.6-U.S.-ton payload hauler features a new Volvo powertrain that provides full power in all gears, along with new axles, transmission, and active hydraulic front suspension for faster hauling speeds. Automatic drive with 100% differential locks, an all-terrain bogie, and hydro-mechanical steering enhance stability and control across demanding terrain.
The redesigned cab improves operator comfort with a larger Volvo Co-Pilot touchscreen, lower noise levels, and better visibility enabled by a lowered hood, optional LED lighting, and cameras. Technologies such as Haul Assist with onboard weighing deliver real-time payload data, while Hill Assist holds the truck on steep slopes without engaging the parking brake. Connected Load Out digitizes ticket sharing among site teams, and ActiveCare Direct supports machine monitoring through advanced telematics.
Additional highlights include Volvo Dynamic Drive for optimal gear selection, Terrain Memory to detect slippery surfaces and adjust traction automatically, and the Volvo Engine Brake system that integrates downhill speed control, cruise control, and wet brakes. OptiShift with Reverse by Braking improves fuel efficiency and cycle times, while reinforced axles support heavier loads. Simplified servicing and longer intervals help reduce maintenance costs by 5% over 12,000 hours, and the Lifetime Frame and Structure Warranty covers the frame and articulation joint for the entire initial ownership period.
