Volvo Trucks delivers its first fully electric heavy-duty concrete mixer to CEMEX, advancing emissions-free construction transport.

Volvo Trucks has supplied CEMEX with its first fully electric, zero exhaust emission heavy-duty concrete mixer. The battery electric truck marks the next step in the two companies global collaboration in deploying electromobility solutions.

The Volvo FMX Electric will be operating at a ready-mix concrete plant in Spandau, Berlin, starting this month. With interest in fully electric heavy-duty transport increasing, Volvo Trucks and CEMEX are working to develop and scale the technologies needed to make emissions-free transport a reality in the demanding construction industry.

Roger Alm, President, Volvo Trucks, says:

We are very happy to take this important step in the partnership with CEMEX. Both our companies have committed to ambitious sustainability targets and collaboration is the way to get there.
