According to CNBC, Volvo's new electric trucks could be running at a maximum combined weight of 44 tons.
Company officials revealed that the FM's range is good for up to 380 kilometers, while the FMX and FH can go for 320 and 300, respectively.
The initial manufacturing of the new trucks will take place in Gothenburg, but next year, the Ghent plant in Belgium could host some of the production, as well.
Volvo Trucks officials stated that the company now has "six electric truck models in series production globally."
Volvo Trucks president, Roger Alm, stated that "we have actually already sold 1,000 units of these heavy-duty electrical trucks before the production start."
He added that, by 2050, "at least 50 percent of the trucks we sell globally should be electric."
Commercialization of this technology is "planned for the latter part of this decade."
