“We are convinced that liquefied gas is one of the most important future alternatives to today’s vehicle fuels,” says Lars MÃ¥rtensson, Director Environmental Affairs at Volvo Trucks.
The new Volvo FM MethaneDiesel is offered with a 13-litre engine producing 460 horsepower and 2300 Nm of torque. The fuel consists of up to 75 percent liquefied gas and the rest diesel, but the proportions can vary depending on how the vehicle is used.
Field tests show that methane-diesel technology offers the same high operating reliability as a conventional diesel engine.
