Volvo Trucks Sweden has just launched a new long-range version of the FH Electric HGV truck. This truck has a maximum range of 373 miles or 600km on one charge.

Volvo has said that this new launch is a "breakthrough" and its development of e-axle, the trucks drivetrain is what has allowed for increased space for more batteries.
