Driving the all-new Volvo B13R is a sensational experience. Perfectly seated in the new driver place, you get that special feeling of control.
Passenger comfort comes from within. Build quality, chassis geometry, suspension and engine installation of Volvo standard all form a good foundation for superior travel comfort, with less interior vibration and noise.
The outstanding fuel efficiency of the Volvo B13R comes from two sources: a highly efficient basic engine concept in combination with multiple refinements. Meticulously engineered functions keep track of every drop of fuel, helping the driver to apply just the power needed at every instant.
The fully dynamic instrument cluster allows you to select between two views depending on what you prefer or want to have in focus: Analog or Focus. Each view displays a wide range of information and widgets with functions to support efficient and safe driving.
A powerful engine does not necessarily use more fuel. In fact, it can be the other way round. An engine with sufficient power reserves can run at optimally fuel-efficient revs for a larger share of the operating time. The Volvo B13R provides massive power at low engine revs when cruising, and thus stays within the economical range.
Volvo coaches are known for their outstanding driver experiences. The all-new Volvo B13R comes with several new features that boost comfort and safety behind the wheel. The new steering wheel with buttons for cruise control and various media is available with a neck-tilt to facilitate entrance and exit.
The Volvo B13R is equipped with advanced safety systems and protection systems to provide superior driver and passenger safety. To Volvo, safety always comes first, and they constantly improve in their drive towards our vision of zero accidents.
In a Volvo B13R, safety is built in from the very start.
Volvo offers an array of intelligent functions helping the driver to drive safely, avoid incidents and protecting from injuries and damage. Excellent visibility and ergonomics help the driver to stay focused and alert.
Safety is a cornerstone already in the initial phases of our product development. Drivability, road handling and a predictable behaviour are the foundation of Volvo holistic safety architecture, aiming at Volvo's vision of zero accidents.
Volvo has the industry’s strongest reputation for safety innovations. The Volvo B13R Low Entry is equipped with a sturdy internal structure and several protective features that significantly reduce the risk of serious injuries in the unlikely event of a collision, including Foot Impact Protection, Knee Impact Protection and Front Underrun Protection.
