Volvo announced the start of electric truck production at its facility in Wacol, Queensland, which coincided with a 30-unit order from logistics firm Linfox.

After acquiring the company for an undisclosed sum, Volvo has expanded its network by eight locations, growing its total number of distribution sites in the country to fourteen.

36 units of the Volvo FL Electric range of medium-duty trucks will be employed in Team Global Express’ Sydney-based pick-up and delivery fleet.
