Following weak market developments and tough competition in Europe, Volvo Buses is now planning to concentrate its European production of complete buses in the company’s main plant in Wroclaw, Poland.

Volvo Buses is now focusing firmly on hybrid buses for city traffic in Europe. As of 2014 Volvo will only offer its complete, low-floor city buses as hybrids on the European market. Volvo is also expanding its hybrid model range with an articulated bus.

Environmentally optimised, economical and highly efficient. Volvo Buses is now launching an all-new series of right-sized engines that meet the new Euro 6 requirements. “In general Euro 6 means higher fuel consumption, but thanks to engines with lower weight, smart new alternators and electrification of various components, we’ve been able to improve fuel efficiency in virtually all our bus models,” says Johnny Lidman, Product Manager City buses, Europe, at Volvo Buses.

Volvo Buses continues to go from strength to strength with its hybrid buses. So far, more than 800 have been sold and with the latest, extremely fuel-efficient Volvo 7900 Hybrid version, interest has reached new heights. This autumn, several new products will be unveiled that further contribute to customer productivity.
