Enhanced Safety in Volvo's Electric Truck with Brigade

Volvo's electric truck, equipped with Brigade Electronics' advanced safety technology, showcases state-of-the-art collision avoidance capabilities. The 19-ton FE electric truck, with a curtain side body, is used for customer trials and is Direct Vision Standard (DVS) compliant, essential for operation in London. The truck features Brigade’s Sidescan®Predict, an ultrasonic technology-based system that predicts collision risks by analyzing data like speed, direction, and acceleration. It alerts drivers through a multi-stage in-cab system, reducing false alarms. The truck also includes Brigade’s mobile digital recording system for all-around visibility. Fitted by Brigade Service Partner Commercial Safety Systems, this technology represents a significant leap in vehicle safety, combining modern technology with innovative safety equipment.

“We like to be ahead with technology. Modern technology like our FE electric deserves new innovative safety equipment.” “When we are charging off site, some of the forecourts are not really designed for manoeuvring large trucks. The Brigade cameras enable us to see the blind spots and that is ideal for safely reversing.”
