Before Volvo Trucks releases a new model onto the market, the vehicle always undergoes a rigorous crash-test programme. The Volvo FE Hybrid is no exception. With its 578 kg battery pack, it presents the crash-test engineers with new challenges.The Volvo FE Hybrid is propelled in parallel by an electric motor and a diesel engine, making possible fuel savings of up to 30 percent. The hybrid model, which will primarily perform distribution and refuse collection duties in urban areas, was tested by simulating a collision in which a car hits the side of the battery pack at a speed of 46 kilometres an hour.
