The all-new Volvo B13R is a platform for superior productivity. A powerful new engine offers fuel savings of up to 9%, making a substantial difference to operating costs. An updated chassis with a new driver’s environment makes every mile behind the wheel an amazing experience. And your passengers will enjoy the improved comfort and safety. The all-new Volvo B13R is truly a premium offering, ready for whatever comes ahead.
Driving the all-new Volvo B13R is a sensational experience. Perfectly seated in the new driver place, you get that special feeling of control. With the new 500 hp engine and updated I-Shift transmission with even faster gear shifting, you have instant power access already from low revs. Now add our unique Volvo Dynamic Steering. The result is extremely smooth power, smooth gear changes and light steering for comfortable and safe driving.
The new 13-litre engine and driveline feature several fuel-saving technologies, helping to reduce fuel consumption by up to 9% compared with the previous engine. A new engine compartment layout with a unique cooling system operated by electrical fans and lower engine revs at cruising speed are two examples. The engine is available in two power levels, 460 hp and 500 hp. For improved environmental performance, both of them can run on HVO and biofuel.
The all-new Volvo B13R also comes in a low-entry version, ideal för creating a premium double decker. The same powerful and highly fuel-efficient driveline and a maximum gross vehicle weight of 26,500 kg offer excellent passenger and luggage capacity.
Passenger comfort comes from within. Build quality, chassis geometry, suspension and engine installation of Volvo standard all form a good foundation for superior travel comfort, with less interior vibration and noise.
There's more to the feeling of comfort than just the coach interior. It starts with the road manners and smoothness as the vehicle maintains the pace. The powerful 13-litre engine, the legendary Volvo I-Shift transmission and Volvo Dynamic Steering all make for steady and efficient progress.
In every Volvo, safety is built-in from the start. The new Volvo B13R features several advanced proactive and protective safety systems that help the driver avoid incidents and accidents.
