Volvo CE introduces new ADT range

Volvo CE is offering a new seven model ADT range

Volvo Construction Equipment is introducing a new seven model ADT range, which includes the 45tonne capacity A50 that slots into the range between the proven A45 and A60 models.

The firm’s president, Melker Jernberg says that these new ADTs offer a range of major gains over the models being replaced. New transmissions help to reduce fuel consumption by up to 15% and coupled with the faster cycle times, this should help lower the cost/tonne for customers according to the firm.

Safety improvements for the new generation machines include a bigger cab entrance for the operator, new hand rails, additional lighting around the machine and better camera systems. This last is a key feature, with a camera that shows forward view if the speed drops below 10km/h. The camera system shows the way ahead on the in-cab display automatically when the truck is climbing a steep slope and also switches automatically to a rear view when the operator starts reversing. Another camera shows the articulation joint so that the operator can see if anyone is in the danger spot.

The new generation A40, A45 and A50 models are available now, with the A25, A30, A35 and A60 starting in production and available later in 2025.
