WHY VNL?
The VNL has been redesigned with significant improvements to ergonomics, aerodynamics, fuel efficiency, and performance. The selection of VNL sleeper and day cab models covers a wide range of highway applications, all offering unsurpassed driveability, safety, and comfort. All while delivering big savings to your bottom line. So if you’re looking for a premium truck that puts a premium on profitability, look no further.
OUR VNL 300 is designed to work with the driver, delivering outstanding performance and visibility, the VNL 300 is the perfect solution when your route takes you out and back the same day.

OUR VNL 400 is a versatile and affordable flat-roof sleeper tractor, the VNL 400 is especially well-suited for the unique demands of long-distance bulk haul and specialty applications.

OUR VNL 740 is all about efficiency – designed to make the most out of every drop of fuel. Long hauls are no problem and it’s particularly well suited for weight-conscious specialty applications.

OUR VNL 760 is destined to become our best-selling truck. Inside the new 70” long, 96” wide sleepers, drivers will find plenty of space to handle day-to-day demands, whether it’s catching up on paperwork, taking a meal break, or getting the rest they need for extended days on the road.

The Volvo VNL is built for the needs of today’s—and tomorrow’s—long-haul trucking operations. A completely redesigned front-end features improved airflow, along with state-of-the-art LED lighting for improved visibility and reduced maintenance.
Aerodynamics
Effortlessly splits the wind.
The latest VNL update features our most aerodynamic and fuel-efficient package. In fact, it offers up to 7.5% fuel savings* when paired with an aero trailer compared to the previous package.
Up above, the roof air deflector complements the cab fairings, keeping the airflow attached and smoothing out costly turbulence between the cab and trailer. Also, the aerodynamic design of our mirror assembly reduces turbulence by attaching air more quickly to the tractor.

Sleek design
Sleek design. Solid savings.
Out in front, the VNL features a new hood, bumper and lower airflow deflector, which work together to quickly manage airflow and efficiently channel it rearward.
Down where the rubber meets the road, redesigned chassis fairings optimize airflow past the drive wheels and tractor-trailer gap.

New Headlights
State-of-the-art LED headlights.
To improve visibility and reduce maintenance, Volvo employs LED bulbs for all exterior lighting. All models feature LED high/low beam headlights, as well as LED turn, marker, and parking lamps.
The premium headlamp also features a “signature” LED daytime running light.

The VNL offers redesigned working and living spaces, optimized to put the driver comfortably in command, maximizing productivity. The seating has been ergonomically optimized, while the dashboard and steering wheel bring controls and information efficiently to the driver with minimal distraction. Our redesigned VNL sleepers make your drivers feel at home on the road.
STEERING WHEEL
Position Perfect Steering
No two drivers are exactly the same, so we set out to design an optional steering solution that would be exactly the right height and angle, no matter who’s behind the wheel. With a three-way neck tilt, driver’s have an almost endless array of choices for positioning the wheel exactly where they prefer it.

Driver Display
Driver information display
At the heart of the new and improved instrument cluster is a five-inch driver display, with improved graphics, works with steering wheel mounted controls to provide key operating parameters, as well access to trip information, performance data, and wide-range of vehicle diagnostics.

Infotainment
Infotainment system
The new infotainment system is optional in every VNL. It features a seven-inch color touch screen and an integrated premium audio system. Drivers can also choose to install navigation tools and a wide selection of third-party applications.

LIVING SPACE
New full-width sleeper
The new 70-inch long sleepers on the mid-roof VNL 740 and high-roof VNL 760 have been expanded to 96-inches wide, maximizing living space and comfort.
Limited
Limited Trim
The Limited trim level features walls covered in our exclusive Longspur cloth with orange accent. The door panels are completed with our finest Longspur vinyl insert.

Touring
Touring Trim
The Touring level trim package offers an interior of Heron cloth that creates a comfortable spacious feel for the driver. Door panels are accented with Wren vinyl inserts.

Fleet
Fleet Trim
The Fleet level trim package features a Heron vinyl headliner featuring a dot matrix pattern and complementary vinyl walls. The door panels are accented with durable Wren plastic inserts.

All while delivering big savings to your bottom line. So if you’re looking for a premium truck that puts a premium on profitability, look no further.
