In 1927 the first series-manufactured Volvo car, the Volvo ÖV4, rolled off the production line on the island of Hisingen, Göteborg. Since then, Volvo has developed from a small local industry to one of the world's largest manufacturers of heavy trucks, buses and construction equipment, with more than 76,000 employees world wide and a presence in over 125 countries.
In 2002, Volvo Trucks concluded a comprehensive product renewal of its heavy-duty range, started with the introduction of the new Volvo FH and Volvo FM trucks in Europe, Asia and other markets, and continued with the introduction of the Volvo VN in North America.
