When the vehicle acceleration limiter is active, a special star
icon lights up in the driver information display.
Note! Volvo Torque Assist requires TP-LONG/TP-HD.

Volvo Torque Assist automatically limits the acceleration to

save fuel. To achieve the best result and gain the largest fuel
saving any of the following conditions have to be met: Sales variants
- Operation with large speed variation ACCLF-S Volvo Torque Assist - Selectable
- Operation in high grades / hilly conditions
ACCLF-E Volvo Torque Assist - Enabled
- Operation in rolling hills
ACCLF-D Volvo Torque Assist - Disabled
- High gross combination weight (GCW)

With Volvo Torque Assist the torque availability will be in higher in uphill conditions

Volvo Torque Assist - an automatic and sensitive Downhill

accelerator pedal - saves fuel

Truck does not need all available torque once the slope is providing energy to
movement. Full torque is cut giving to driver the enough to move with small
acceleration margin.

Flat

Volvo Torque Assist will automatically provide the truck driver with enough
torque to keep the actual speed, adding a controlled torque delta to enable opti-
mized vehicle acceleration. It also takes in consideration the topography, which
makes that torque availability be higher/full in uphill conditions. Truck does not need all available torque once the resistive torque is basically the
rolling and air drag. Full torque is cut giving to driver the enough to move with
acceleration margin.

Uphill

Truck needs all available torque once the resistive torque is added by the inclina-
tion. Full torque is delivered. No cut.

Volvo retains the right to modify design and specifications

without prior notification.
