The need for complex solutions regarding the shipment of goods has seen the development of the Volvo FH Globetrotter commercial truck. Designed by Rhys Llewellyn, the Volvo FH Globetrotter truck has an aerodynamic design that enables it to move with little resistance across landscapes.
When the Volvo FH Globetrotter is moving at slow speeds it features a design focused on visibility, but when it transitions to high-speed transport the truck tucks in to increase the aerodynamic profile. The driver of the commercial truck can easily transition between the driving cabin and the sleeping quarters to make it suitable for long-term shipments. The vehicle identifies how existing shipping solutions will continue to be fine-tuned and developed to be more efficient for the growing demands of the modern economy.
