Braking faster with more power
No matter if you are slowing down quickly or getting a fully loaded truck to halt completely, the brakes on the Volvo FE are designed to be reliable and durable. The powerful anti-lock brakes allow you to maintain higher average speed without jeopardising safety.

For tractors and rigids with 4x2 drive, there is the option of ESP (Electronic Stability Program) – an advanced stability enhancement system that reduces the risk of rolling over, skidding and jack-knifing.
