I'm most curious to find out what two people will say:
the driver who will be driving the truck,
And the accountant of Alegre who will be analyzing the fuel consumption
and will surely appreciate new solutions implemented in Volvo FH.
We've been working in transport and logistics for more than 20 years.
We've worked with the furniture industry from the very beginning.
We take the cargo from Poland
and drive it to the EU where we can have over a dozen places of unloading.
While transporting furniture we care about fuel efficiency
and the ability to drive dynamically and smoothly.
Let us see this masterpiece first.
-Then we'll talk. -All right!
This is a new Volvo FH with a second-generation I-Save engine
and safety systems that include
blind-spot sensors thanks to which drivers control the surroundings of the vehicle.
They signal possible dangers in mirrors.
Apart from the new I-Save engine,
we've also added a new, faster gearbox.
It minimizes fuel consumption and makes the ride more comfortable.
We're curious to see how the new vehicle compares to our old trucks
When you hit the road, you won't be back after eight hours.
Last week I had a great route:
more than 2000 km one way.
You have to like this job.
Otherwise, it doesn't make any sense.
You take a step into the unknown
when you drive a new vehicle, a new model.
You need to familiarize yourself with it.
You need time to get to know all the features of this vehicle.
Thank you for finding the time to discuss
the test you've been taking part in for a couple of months now.
How has the fuel consumption changed?
Our company is impressed.
We're thinking about long-term advantages.
If we introduce more vehicles with these solutions to our fleet,
our company will be even more competitive
and more profitable.
I've been driving this truck for six months.
It's a pleasure to drive it.
There's an excellent traction on corners.
The truck doesn't tilt.
You can feel the tiniest movement of the steering wheel.
It's as easy to drive as a regular car.
It's simply amazing!
When it comes to development of Alegre,
we attach importance to modern tools.
We're pleasantly surprised by the test results.
They turned out absolutely amazing.
It'd allow us to be even more competitive
and be…
half a step or even one step ahead of our competition.
