This is a used truck tractor unit — also commonly referred to as a semi-truck or an artic — a heavy commercial vehicle designed to couple with a semi-trailer and haul freight over road networks. Volvo is one of the world's most recognised names in heavy transport, producing trucks, buses, and construction equipment that are widely relied upon across logistics, construction, and industrial haulage sectors worldwide.
This example is offered in used condition and is currently located in Portugal. According to the seller's notes, the unit is equipped with leaf spring suspension, hub reduction axles, and a hydraulic kit. Leaf spring suspension provides a robust and proven load-handling characteristic well suited to demanding haulage applications. Hub reduction axles — sometimes called portal axles — relocate the final drive reduction to the wheel hubs, improving ground clearance and increasing the torque delivered at the wheels, which is particularly advantageous in demanding or off-road adjacent operating conditions. The hydraulic kit extends the unit's operational capability, enabling it to power hydraulic systems on compatible trailers or ancillary equipment, making it a practical choice for tipping, walking-floor, or other hydraulically operated trailer configurations.
