The Volvo Trucks Driver Challenge brings together all the different challenges that truck drivers face every day. Their skills are often the decisive factor in the productivity and profitability of our customers. Drivers also make a major contribution to road safety. The finals gave us the opportunity to see incredibly skillful drivers doing an impressive job of handling their trucks.

Ms. Anna Engblom, Managing Director for Southeast Asia & Japan at Volvo Trucks said, "The Driver Challenge is our way of bringing Volvo's deep expertise in fuel economy to our customers, delivering these benefits throughout the entire lifespan and operation of their trucks. This competition empowers drivers to enhance their driving skills, improve fuel efficiency, and prioritize safety. Using less fuel is not only beneficial for our customers but also for the environment." She continued to say " Volvo Connect scores measure driver performance, providing a Fuel Efficiency Score based on speed adaptation, engine and gear utilization, anticipation and braking, and standstill. Striving for a high score reduces costs, CO2 emissions, and enhances safety and vehicle longevity – key aspects of the Drivers' Challenge."
