The key to profitability is total cost of ownership. To maximise profit, you need the right truck, personalised services and an extensive support network that keeps you on the road.
The versatile FM now also has two locally built model options that meet Euro6 emission standards, the FM11 and FM13. Not only are these trucks lower in their emissions, but they also offer improved fuel efficiency.
All locally build FM models are proud to be certified 'Australian Made', there has never been a better time to support the local economy by choosing to invest in locally produced trucks.
Built for the road. At home on any city street. The Volvo FM’s aerodynamic lines and soft curves give it a confident, yet friendly look. It’s bold. It’s urban. It’s every inch a Volvo.
Tipper, tanker, transporter? Crane? The Volvo FM can be configured any way you want it.

It’s powerful. Aerodynamic. And built for the road. But the Volvo FM is also at home on city streets. It’s less assertive-looking than some of its stable mates. Less tall too. So it’s easy for pedestrians, cyclists and car drivers to make eye contact with the driver. And that means happier – and safer – journeys all round.
Up to 540 hp of fuel-efficient power
The next step towards cleaner and more fuel-efficient engines. Several small advances results in a big improvement. Giving increased engine torque and response at low rpm on the D13 engine. As well as longer oil drain intervals on the D11 engine. This means less environmental impact.
I-Shift makes driving easier, safer and more comfortable. There’s no heavy clutch, and no stick to wrestle with. Every gear change is perfectly timed. The simplicity of the system reduces driver fatigue, helping you to focus on the road and the traffic around you. And if you do want to change gear manually, the button on the gearstick gives you direct control of the shift.
Whatever you need space for, the Volvo FM has room for it. Its clever chassis design and increased specification options let you tailor the layout to your exact needs. The chassis also features Volvo-patented technologies that ensure superior handling – on the motorway and round the tightest bends.
When you’re comfortable, you drive well. So from the moment you climb into the Volvo FM (using the extra low entry step), to the moment you clock off (the bed is wide and pocket sprung), you’ll find everything you need for a relaxing workday.
