Adding to its lineup of Volvo Autohauler (VAH) models, Volvo Trucks has introduced the VAH 630, a premium sleeper version for long-haul operations. The VAH family, launched in March 2011, already includes day cab and smaller sleeper models for local and regional automobile transport applications.

The new VAH 630 provides long-haul drivers the room they need for rest, meals and paperwork duties, the company says. It has a 61-in. sleeper with a full-sized bunk, ample storage capacity, and space for comfort and entertainment amenities. 

The model is available with either Volvo’s D11 or D13 engine. The D11 features 355 to 405 hp and 1250 to 1420 lb ft of torque, while the D13 features 375 to 500 hp and torque ranging from 1450 to 1750 lb ft. It’s also available with the Volvo I-Shift automated manual transmission.

Other models in Volvo’s VAH lineup are the VAH 200 day cab and the VAH 430, which features a 42-in. sleeper and full-size bunk. All VAH models incorporate features such as deep-drop front axles, low-height Volvo Air Ride rear suspensions, and reduced-height cab options provided by Fontaine Modification.

The lower overall height offers the flexibility to position a vehicle as large as a minivan over the truck’s cab to maximize payload. In addition, a clean top-of-frame behind the cab allows for easier body mounting and trailer hookup.

The VAH 630 comes equipped with Remote Diagnostics, Volvo’s telematics-based proactive diagnostic and repair-planning system.
