Вставка
- Опубліковано 7 лют 2025
- How much can a single, series-produced truck haul? A Volvo FH16 featuring I-Shift with crawler gears faces one of the toughest challenges in the history of Volvo Trucks. With the world’s strongest man, Magnus Samuelsson, and trucking journalist Brian Weatherley in the driver’s cab, a Volvo FH16 attempts to pull 750 tonnes.

I don't drive a truck.
I don't even drive a car.
But somehow Volvo has impressed me enough with their videos that if someone asked I would probably recommend one of their trucks.
That’s what advertising and marketing works
Worth mentioning that MACK, Renault and UD trucks are also all Volvo (for more budget friendly recommendations).
Volvo trucks just seem so much better put together than other few trucks I've driven in the states
Now that's advertising done right!
Hello my friend writing with great pleasures
people: There is nothing stronger than love
Volvo:
Actually when you change order of some letters, throw a couple away and add some new ones to VOLVO you will get LOVE.... :D

The love is not...STRONG
@@RoozyyK that's a lot of work.

it have about 3500 nm of torque

maybe🤔
the sound of a Volvo cabover sounds out over the sky.
I've had the opportunity to drive the FH13 440 6x2 hooked to two tanker trailers loaded with Diesel fuel, gross weight 57 tonnes on flat and mountainous terrain in Southern Brazil and the performance was great. I couldn't possibly describe the level of joy to hear and feel 750 horses on a big FH17.
Good to hear!

The engine and transmission be like:
*Why are we still here, just to suffer*
This comment and pfp gave me a cramp
Good one
Every night, I can feel my crankshaft, my driveshaft, even my trailer hitch.
driveshafts twisted like fusilli
Dont worry, that engine(modified) ran 2400hp and 4425 ft-lb through a stock i shift gearbox
It's very impressive, seeing a truck haul that much weight.
We're still a long way before a working road train of that magnitude, but this is a start.
Not going to happen doesn't even make sense. Railway simply is far more efficient. It's more likely we will get swarm like behavior with self driving deliveries that can go on both road and maglev.
@@XouZ88 its something only Australian people understand
Aside from it being fricken insane...But the transmission? That is the real wonder there😊😊😊
@@XouZ88road trains are mainly used in australia as their extensive railway network is mainly on the bigger tourist attractions, so transporting with rails are a hard thing in aus, but if you use a road train itll use less fuel than 4 drivers with the same weight as one driver with the same weight from the road train, and its overall cheaper to transport 4 loads at once without having to pay 4 drivers or more for the same amount of things
as euro truck simulator player, im so proud of this truck.

Very funny.

Volvo truck: hold my 750 tones💰💸
Yes, because steel wheels on steel tracks how about 10x less rolling resistance than tires, a train weighing the same would be so much easier. He is a video explaining that and they used an electric F-150. ua-cam.com/video/Au3U72CX74I/v-deo.html That one however was 1.25 million lbs.
@@alterbr33d the Volvo actually pulled more weight
750 tonnes is about 1.65 million pounds

Some kind of Australian trucker: i want this truck to my garage!
Wrong ahahaha
This is actually awesome! This shows how well made these trucks are if this is a straight from the factory truck. That was a huge load for the gearbox and the shaft to pull that much weight and it seems like nothing broke !
TheCoBBus everyone is forgetting that this isn't a record, and was done, with less problems in Kalgoorlie, with over 1000 tonne
probably not with a stock truck, and def. not in a rain/snowstorm
Theres a difference between stock and not stock. This thing is stock, but imagine it being custom? I bet it'd be able to, as long as the trailers themselves hold, drag over 1500 tons!
Damn, I'm impressed.

the engine must of been like
OH GOD END ME PLEASE
IMO, the driveshaft wanted to suicide even more...
The engine is probably one of the least solicited parts in all of this, it's basically just revving at its max torque RPM for several seconds, nothing spectacular honestly. The transmission is much more solicited
Not really that impressive for engine. More impressive for transmission. There is a football stadium in America that moves over 8 thousand tones of dirt with a bunch of tiny 1hp motors.

Chuck lent one of his biceps to the Volvo team for installation instead of an engine. This is the power of x1 Chuck arm cranking the gearbox manually.

This is awesome. 750 tonnes. The equivalent weight of six fully loaded railroad hoppers. Except pulling them on tyres instead of railroad wheels makes it ten times harder! Bravo.
The extra friction plus the fact that truck weighs a lot less than a regular locomotives. Also I forget how much hp that thing has but a normal train has like 20k hp. The fact it can pull this is insane. 90% less power and 75% more friction and it still pulls.
Imagine
It is only 1HP to pull one ton😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱
Because all the power is combined not separated, it is much easier to pull
Power needed for towing depends much by friction between wheels and surface, that's why steel wheels on steel tracks is much more efficient than rubber on tarmac.
The heaviest train in the world, from iron ore in Australia weighted 99734 tonnes, with 8 locomotives with 6000hp each, so 2 tonnes/HP and was driven for 275km not 100 meters like this truck.
