OWe’re excited to share that Onpoint Group has welcomed the first Volvo FH Aero 6×2 tractor unit to our fleet—a powerful step forward in both innovation and sustainability.
This cutting-edge vehicle isn’t just a sleek addition to our lineup of more than 100 trucks—it’s also helping to drive our green agenda. Running exclusively on HVO (hydrotreated vegetable oil), the new Volvo FH Aero is already showing promising results in fuel efficiency, reinforcing our commitment to lowering our environmental impact without compromising performance.
“Fuel efficiency has always been a key focus for us,” says Anthony Delaney, Sales & Marketing Director at Onpoint Logistics. “We’ve operated plenty of Volvo FHs over the years, but the Aero presents a new opportunity to push even further in terms of performance and sustainability.”
Initially deployed on a demanding trunk route from Birmingham to Wales, the new unit is pulling a double-deck trailer—one of the toughest tests in terms of fuel consumption. Despite the challenging workload, early figures are encouraging:
“We’re already seeing an improvement of 0.5 to 0.7 MPG over the truck it replaced on this run, and that’s before driver training has even taken place,” Anthony adds. “There’s definitely more to come.”
As we continue to invest in more efficient, lower-emission vehicles, the FH Aero is a clear example of how innovation and environmental responsibility go hand in hand at Onpoint. It’s not just about moving goods—it’s about moving the industry forward.
Stay tuned for more updates as we monitor performance and explore wider deployment across our fleet.
