The Volvo VNR Electric is now eligible for dozens of funding and incentive programs across North America, including up to $120,000 per vehicle from California’s Hybrid and Zero-Emission Truck and Bus Voucher Incentive Project (HVIP).
Through point-of-sale vouchers, incentives, or rebates, funding programs established are designed to help make the transition to zero-emission vehicles more cost-effective for fleets of all sizes that operate across any sector.
“Funding and incentives are an important part of the total cost of ownership calculation for fleets deploying battery-electric trucks,” said Peter Voorhoeve, president of Volvo Trucks North America. “With so many local and state-level funding opportunities available from coast to coast, combined with a robust sales and service support network from Volvo Trucks, there are more resources available than ever to guide and help make electrification seamless for customers.”

In conjunction with the launch of the VNR Electric, Volvo Trucks has introduced the Volvo Gold Contract, a service contract specifically designed to provide peace of mind for new electric truck owners. Incorporating maintenance, towing, uptime services, and full coverage of major components, the Volvo Gold Contract will come standard with the Volvo VNR Electric.
