Volvo Trucks - Emergency braking at its best!

On a test track in the new Volvo FH, together with test drivers, you get to experience how the Collision Warning with Emergency Brake system can avoid a rear-end collision, even if it's tight!
The tractor-trailer is fully loaded to 40 tons GCW.

Imagine that truck coming at you full speed and your life flashes before your eyes then suddenly you realize it’s a Volvo

[BrokemyiPhoneBMP]

Here at Volvo we don't believe in physics.

That cockpit view behind the REAL moving car was insane. In my head I knew he stopped in time but behind the wheel it looked like a completely different outcome.

[SlayerofFiction]

Having driven Trucks off and on for nearly 30 years I am here to say, that is impressive.

[r.fo.]

Shout out to the engineers and scientists who dedicate their life to the safety of others

[Aegz]

That’s it.

I’m buying a Volvo truck

[NatVirgo]

I find it crazy how this is still impressive a decade later, this truck stops faster than a good chunk of cars, and the truck is fully loaded.

Meanwhile: American made trucks still continue plowing through cars like a train.

youtube: hey buddy, wanna see some trucks using brakes?
me: yep. why not.

Tesla: Our trucks do 0-60 in 8 seconds.
Volvo: Our trucks do 60-0 in 4 seconds.

As a Brazilian, I say Volvo trucks are the best. Here in a country where the economy is supported by roads often full of holes, unevenness and lack of asphalt. In addition to the large amount of mountains in Brazilian territory and extremely heavy loads. Volvo has dominated the market for years. To do this in such a precarious country in terms of roads, it's not because Volvo trucks are anything but trucks, they are extremely efficient machines!

I like how you can see 3 distinct level to the braking, stage one is an early braking speed, stage two is a normal braking speed, and stage three is brown alert defy the laws of momentum braking speed

Truck: Brakes


10 million people: This is interesting

[SoumendraBagh]

R.I.P anyone whoever is following the truck.

[RhristianoConaldo]

Let's take a moment to appreciate the engineers behind this amazing technology

[Christianpreaching]

Every clip I watch I'm like, there's no way he's stopping in time

[mario_santino_dj]

Everybody is talking about the braking system but boy, those wheels deserve some respect too.

As a professional truck break inspector I can confirm these are top of the line breaks

[slyfoxyandalifesaver]

No damage to either vehicle, impressive although the i'm sure the car driver will have a heart attack when they look in the rear view mirror.

The guy driving behind the truck: “Well shiiii...”
