Volvo Construction Equipment Electric Machines: Autonomous Prototypes at #XplorationForum 2016

The hybrid wheel loader LX01 (prototype) loads the HX01 – Volvo’s first all-electric, autonomous hauler. In Eskilstuna (Sweden), Volvo Construction Equipment shared a glimpse of what the future of construction equipment may look like. Even conventional dumpers (A25F) and wheel loaders (L120E), equipped with GPS, inertia measurement technology and LIDAR work autonomously. Not to mention that these beasts do recognize humans in their way… The 2016 Volvo Xploration Forum gave insights on electromobility, automation and connectivity. According to Bill Law, Senior Vice President Corporate Communications, these topics are undoubtedly going to change the industry. LET'S CONNECT!
