Features & Benefits

Fast cycle times
Fast cycle times Meet your production targets faster in the R70, combining an effective body design, class-leading tractive force and productivity-enhancing solutions.
Fast cycle times

Fast cycle times

Effortlessly take on steep gradients thanks to the drivetrain with high torque capabilities and high drive axle multiplication, delivering impressive tractive force and high levels of rimpull.

High capacity V-shaped body

High capacity V-shaped body

Move more with every cycle in the high-capacity V-shaped body, which ensures optimal load retention and minimal material carry-back – further enhanced with the exhaust-heated option. For long lasting performance, the body is manufactured from high impact and high abrasion resistant steel.

On-board weighing

On-board weighing

Make sure you haul the optimum amount of material with the optional On-Board Weighing system, providing real-time payload insight via the on-board display. The system helps to eliminate both underloading for peak productivity, and overloading for reduced fuel consumption and machine wear. It also assists operators in employing the 10-10-20 payload profile policy (please ask your local dealer for more detailed information).

Matched loading units

Matched loading units

The R70 rigid hauler is a perfect match to the EC950F crawler excavator and L350H wheel loader, helping to optimize fleet use. With the additional support of Volvo Site Simulation, your Volvo dealer can work with you to advise on the optimum fleet configuration and site set-up for your operation.

A host of comfort enhancing features including climate control, ergonomically positioned displays, responsive fingertip controls and adjustable air-suspended seat and steering wheel combine to keep operators working at their best. With the Bluetooth enabled audio system operators can choose the soundtrack to their working day.

Smooth ride

Smooth ride

Enjoy superior ride quality in the robust Volvo Rigid Hauler, equipped with responsive MacPherson strut with lower wishbone connection and viscous-mounted cab, minimizing the transfer of impact and vibrations from the ground to the operator. The responsive low-effort steering system and geometry, combined with the suspension, optimizes maneuverability by minimizing lean on tight corners.

Downhill control

Downhill control

The R70 rigid hauler features two standard retardation systems for enhanced downhill machine control. The transmission retarder limits wheel lock-up while the modulating rear brake retarder, with automatic apply function, helps to maintain a controlled engine speed. Other protective features include transmission overspeed protection, neutral coast inhibitor, fail-safe braking and secondary steering systems

Straightforward access
