Why "the Volvo"

In yachting circles, the Volvo Ocean Race is simply called “The Volvo” – so we deemed it the perfect name for this site. The Volvo Ocean Race is the ideal platform for Volvo Trucks to expose our brand and build strong customer relations. In the past decade, the race has helped us transform the Volvo brand and increase our business. We are proud to be involved!
