The interface evolution

VOLVO TRUCKS DRIVER INTERFACE

Your new driver interface is just as adaptable and flexible as the rest of your truck. The instrument panels in the Volvo FH, Volvo FH16, Volvo FM and Volvo FMX are fully digital and dynamic. And the side display integrates the specific needs of your operations with your truck. Just to help you be even safer and more productive.

Your new driver interface is designed to make it easier for you to keep your hands on the steering wheel and your eyes on the road when driving. And to have easy access to the right information in all possible situations – when driving, loading, finding the right route or keeping track of your driver times and vehicle status.

A fully digital instrument display gives you freedom to optimise the interface for every moment of using your truck. If you’re used to Volvo Trucks’ well-organised analogue interface, you’ll still feel right at home.

Information displays based on what you do

The instrument display has four different modes, which can be switched depending on what you’re doing at the moment and what information you need to prioritise. Naturally, your truck specification and your truck use will determine the detailed functions available in each mode. But in general the modes are:

Home view – the standard view, covering most functions available.
Focus view – an adapted view, showing the most essential information for driving.
Navigation view – guidance for directions. Combines information about speed with route directions and arrival time.
Load view – a clear status. How much load on each axle? Any axles lifted or differentials engaged?

Hands on the steering wheel

All functions presented in the driver interface are easily navigated and controlled by using the steering wheel buttons. Regardless of the situation, it supports you in keeping your hands on the steering wheel and your attention on your driving.

Side Display

On the right-hand side of the dashboard, there’s the 9-inch side display with touchscreen. Here’s where you control your media and communication functions, using an interface you’re used to from your smartphone. In the side display, the camera views are presented. There are also modules for handling your tasks, vehicle and superstructure functions, to name a few examples. Control the side display functions using the touchscreen, steering wheel control, the control buttons on the dashboard or the voice control.

Integrate your tools

The side display can be opened for the integration of third-party apps on your screen. You’ll be able to work more efficiently, not to mention more safely.

Talk to your truck

You can control several functions in your truck by using the voice control, which is built into the cab. It’s a helpful assistant that will make your life easier and help you keep your attention on the road.
