Volvo FM460 Trucks for Sale (3)

The Volvo FM460 is part of the FM range of trucks from Volvo. The current models are fitted with Volvo’s Euro 6, D11K engines which produce 460 hp (hence the FM460 name) and a top torque of 2,220 Nm. Typically these models are used as tractor units or heavy duty 8×4 applications, such as machinery carriers and can be fitted with a heavy-duty front axle.   For every day 8×4 tipper operation you are more likely to see the FM400 or later FM410 on the road – or for heavy duty tipping jobs, truck buyers will typically opt for one of the Volvo FMX range of trucks.
