Butcombe Brewery in the UK recently took delivery of two Volvo trucks. The Volvo FE 6x2 and the Volvo FL 4x2 rigid extend the 18-strong commercial vehicle fleet to seven Volvos. They will typically work five days a week, delivering to pubs and distribution centres predominately in the south of England, clocking as much as 110.000 km annually.
Volvo FE is powered by a D8K Euro-VI engine rated at 320 hp, which has been paired with an automated 12-speed I-Shift transmission, while the FL’s specification includes a D5K 240 hp engine and an 8-speed automatic gearbox.
Founded in 1978, Butcombe Brewery operates more than 100 pubs, bars, and inns, while also brewing its own range of beers and cider. (ben)
