Renault Trucks, part of Volvo Group, awarded 4 stars in the Euro NCAP safety rating
Euro NCAP – the European New Car Assessment Programme – has been a benchmark in the area of vehicle safety since 1997. In 2024, it has expanded its tests to include heavy-duty trucks. Following months of stringent testing, Euro NCAP has just released the results of this very first assessment: the Renault Trucks T achieved 4 stars, placing it among the safest trucks on the market.
The European consumer test organization Euro NCAP has for the first time ever assessed the safety of heavy-duty trucks. Volvo’s best-selling models, the Volvo FH and the Volvo FM, both received the top rating of five stars. The Volvo FM also had the best overall test result among all tested trucks. The Volvo FM and the Volvo FH Aero scored the maximum five stars in Euro NCAP’s first assessment of truck safety who also gave both Volvo models their City Safe award.

Sales of vehicles were 11% lower than last year while sales of services remained resilient and increased by 4%.
