I spent a week driving the FM 420, mostly highway, some city and a few bad roads in between. First impressions - the air suspension seat is a blessing, you can mess with the lumbar and height, made my back hurt less by the end of the day. I liked the visibility, lower cab height actually helps, mirrors cover most blind spots but there's always that one angle missing. AC and heating are solid, though didn't get to try heating much here. Music system is there but speaker placement isn't the best. Door handles are oddly placed, keep reaching for the wrong spot. Climbing in and out is easy, steps are wide and grip well even in the rain. Rear bunk is decently spacious - not exactly hotel room but good enough to stretch out for a nap. As for service and parts, didn’t run into issues yet but Volvo has a decent network, at least in bigger cities. Wasn’t blown away by some of the plastics and small details, but nothing that ruins the experience. JK tyres seem reliable so far. Would love it if price was less but it's not shocking for this segment.

The Volvo FM's safety features definitely stand out. The truck's design prioritizes vision for drivers, a big deal in crowded urban areas. I noticed the active safety systems provide great assistance during tight maneuvers. However, while the technology is impressive, it might feel a bit much for drivers who prefer a more straightforward setup. Still, it's hard to argue with its solid Euro NCAP rating.

I’ve driven the Volvo FM 450 for a decent number of trips now. Performance-wise, it's got the juice with the D11K engine. It handles inclines well, and fuel efficiency isn’t bad either. However, the cab can feel a bit cramped, especially if you're used to the FH. But the lower entry step, that's handy during frequent stops. Overall, it’s a solid option, but I wouldn’t pick this for extended trips.

Having spent a week with the Volvo FM 460, I found it quite reliable. The manual gearbox is decent, though I did notice the ride felt slightly less smooth compared to some others, possibly due to its suspension setup. The cab arrangement is fairly intuitive, but I wish the door could open slightly wider for easier ingress. Overall, the experience was positive.

Drove the updated FM for a couple weeks. So the driving position is proper comfortable, everything sits where you reach for it, and you don't have to twist or stretch. Controls are simple, and the new dashboard isn't overcluttered, so you don't lose time looking for stuff. Really appreciate the grip from the anti-slip mats on the floor, whoever came up with that idea, thanks. Ride is decent, the truck handles smooth enough, but honestly I still get a bit of glare off the screens in bright sun, and the touchscreen sometimes needs a second tap. Maintenance is about what you'd expect for a new Volvo, not cheap, but at least you get proper access to dealership service. Fuel economy feels a touch better but can’t say for sure just yet. Cabin is solid, and it’s got enough space for a mess of gear, which I personally need.
