| WELCOME
TO THE INTERSECTION OF LUXURY AND POWER.
The Volvo VT 880 is a premium-size,
long-haul dual sleeper with a high-profile
look… and all the space, comfort and storage
you expect from Volvo. And take a look at that
striking exterior. With all its beautiful
chrome and brightwork, the 880 is a shining
example of what a long haul truck can look and
feel like.
But style is only half of the story.
There’s a reason for the 880’s long hood:
power. Power that comes from a standard
16-liter Volvo engine with up to 625
horsepower and 2250 lb-ft of torque. The 880
really goes the distance for long, demanding
routes. It’s perfect for ‘heavy haul’
applications where you need big muscle to move
heavier loads or doubles over long
distances… or up long, steep hills. |
| With the
Volvo VT 880, you’re living large.
You’ll have the functional equivalent of a
bedroom, kitchen, office and den, all in one
spacious sleeper. So if you’ve got to spend
weeks at a time away from home, this is the
place to do it.
How big is big? Over 374 cubic feet of
sleeper space, and over 520 cubic feet of
total living space when you include the cab.
There’s plenty of room to stand, sit, walk
around and stretch out. The Volvo VT 880’s
high ceiling eliminates any sense of being
closed-in, and there’s a skylight at the
front plus two windows on each side wall to
keep the cabin feeling open and bright.
With the 880, you’ll be able to choose
from three beautifully coordinated interior
design packages. As is fitting for Volvo’s
top-of-the-line truck, the 880 offers a
top-of-the-line saddle interior, with leather
seats and brick-colored accent trim. It’s
lighter and brighter, even at night.
A SLEEPER THAT’S SERIOUS ABOUT
COMFORT AND CONVENIENCE.
The sleeper area is every bit as practical as
it is spacious. The optional workstation does
double duty as your dining table and office
desk. After supper, the bench seats quickly
convert to a full-length lower bunk. The upper
bunk folds out from the back of the cab, and a
foldaway ladder allows easy access. The
cabinet system can be configured to suit your
storage needs, with solid doors to keep your
possessions safe and secure. And you’ll
enjoy the convenience of appliance options
that include a sink and refrigerator, with
space for your microwave and TV/VCR.
A good night’s sleep goes a long way
toward keeping you alert and clear-headed. So
when its time for lights out, there’s both a
sleeper curtain and a wrap-around windshield
curtain to assure undisturbed relaxation. Each
bunk has a well-placed reading lamp, and there
are options for task and mood lighting
throughout the cab. Control panels are located
in the sleeper area as well as on the dash for
handy lighting and temperature control. Upper
and lower windows open to provide cross
ventilation. And the entire sleeper area is
carpeted for an extra touch of home-style
comfort. |
