The market leader and inventor of the articulated hauler, Volvo Construction Equipment( Volvo CE) recently unveiled what it says is its biggest and boldest articulated hauler launch to date.
Delivering superior innovation, it says the new range is designed to meet the modern-day need for connected solutions, productivity performance and emission reductions, with the human at the centre.
Volvo CE’ s update, it adds, represents a complete overhaul of its existing, globally recognised, best-in-class articulated hauler lineup, now ranging in size from the A25 to the A60. An entirely new model, the A50, has also been introduced, increasing customer opportunities in the hauler segment.
The launch is part of Volvo CE’ s most extensive product portfolio overhaul in decades, with over 35 % of its range renewed in the past 12 months.
Volvo CE was the pioneer behind the world’ s first articulated hauler‘ Gravel Charlie’ in 1966, and the new lineup of articulated haulers is set for stepwise introductions on markets globally during 2025. The updated models mark a significant technological leap forward thanks to key innovations such as a new electronic system and an in-house developed transmission, delivering fuel efficiency improvements of up to 15 % depending on model and industrial application. Furthermore, the machines’ new design has been constructed in such a way as to adapt over time to fit future drivetrains.
The all-new A50 model is available in selected markets, and underscores Volvo CE’ s commitment to meeting the evolving needs of its customers by enhancing operational capabilities and offering more choices, it says.
Volvo CE states:“ The result is cuttingedge, safe and productive machines that have been purpose-built to lower total cost of ownership and respond to the challenges of today and tomorrow across the toughest of work sites, especially when combined with Volvo CE’ s pioneering digital solutions, such as the Haul Assist with onboard weighing.”

The new models have also been built with a focus on sustainability. This includes the introduction of low carbon emission steel – made from recycled materials and produced using fossil free electricity and biogas – in serial production of haulers manufactured at the Braås site.
